Honor Choir Visit!

Today the Swartz Creek Honors Choir (4th, 5th and 6th grade) came out to give the residents a singing performance. They did a great job! The residents sang along and loved watching the kids perform. Thanks so much for coming out, you all did a great job!!

Smore's Cookie Bars!

We tried out a new dessert today, Smore's Cookie Bars! YUM! We thought it was the perfect snack for the start of Memorial Day weekend. Check out the recipe here: http://www.lovintheoven.com/2008/12/day-11-smores-cookie-bars.html . 

 Donnie loved smashing up the graham crackers. We passed them around, it was everyone's favorite part!

Bowling!

Randy and David stopped by the bowling alley today to play some games. Who knew we had a couple of bowling pros in the house? :)

Balloon Launch!

Today we did the Balloon Launch! This is a fun activity we do every year. We include a note in the balloons from each resident and if a lucky person finds it, they send us a letter! One balloon traveled 20 miles! We have gotten several letters throughout the years and it's been fun reading the responses! We'll see how far they go this year!

 Each balloon had a special saying.

 Ready.....

 ...let go!!

 Up they go!

Turning into tiny dots in the sky before they disappeared!
