Crafts & a Happy Birthday!

We painted bird pictures in Arts & Crafts today. There were all sorts of different birds to choose from; Blue Jays, Robins, Chickadees, hummingbirds, etc... Everyone had their own watercolor set attached to the paper which we thought was very neat! Today was also a special day, it was Donnie's birthday! So we surprised him with a cake at crafts before he went with his brother for a fun filled day! Then later he's meeting up with everyone at Fire Mountain!
Happy Birthday Donnie!

St. Patty's Day Party!

We celebrated St. Patrick's Day today with a cabbage and sauerkraut
dinner! yum! We also listened to Irish music and dressed up with funny hats, wigs and headbands for the occasion!

Karaoke party!

On Friday we had a karaoke party and also had a few special visitors join in the fun! David's nieces! They loved to sing as much as we do! We tried out the new karaoke CDs too, they rock!

Donnie knows every song!

Caribbean Luau Party!

The Caribbean party was a success! The activity center was decked out in Luau decorations, complete with a sunset and large beach umbrella! Everyone brought a dish so we had a great variety of food. We had chicken, vegetarian lasagna, tuna casserole, spaghetti salad, coleslaw, ambrosia salad and more! Then for desserts we had cake, no bakes, chocolate cheesecake, and more! We even had a tiki bar with aquarium Jell-o cups; check out the recipe in the newsletter! The music was preformed by Marcia Allen who put on a great performance, she had all of us singing and dancing! The kids got to decorate their own cups and then played some games to win prizes, they also did the limbo! It was a great time; hope to see you next year!

The fish are back!

Feels like spring! It was 67 outside today, wow! A little windy but we'll take it! Julian took Sharon outside for a nice walk and fed the fish... they were glad to see the pond was dethawed and we bet the fish were too!
