News From The Ice Cream Parlor

I believe that the dressing and the cranberry sauce are the best part of the meal at Thanksgiving, besides of course, all of the different desserts! Don’t you agree? The meal is always good but the best part of the holiday season is being able to spend time with your loved ones. Let’s all be thankful for even the small things that we encounter in our lifetime, especially your family. Hold it dear, family and friends are most important. I hope that each of you have a peaceful and very Happy Thanksgiving this year.

I want thank you for the positive responses that I received on the annual activities program surveys. Thank you for all the nice compliments that each of you have given me. As always, if any of us in any department can make your stay any more comfortable, please let us know. We are all here to make this as much your home as we possibly can.

We sure had an eventful month in October! I want to take this time to mention one of our largest events —we celebrated our ten year anniversary with an Open House on Thursday October 21st from 3-5 p.m. Guests enjoyed a tasteful assortment of finger foods as Tom Hamilton played the piano. Other activities included a horse & buggy ride on Wednesday October 20th., Western Day with music provided by Clif Duckworth on Friday the 22nd, First Christian Church Trick-or-treaters came on the 27th, and our annual Halloween Family night was held on Thursday the 28th.

Our upcoming events in November include—A Veterans Day Program with Sam Beeny on Monday November 8th at 1:30, making personal hygiene bags for our soldiers on the 12th, and a lunch out at a restaurant of the residents choice.

Our next Resident Town Meeting will be held at 11 a.m. on Monday November 29th. See you there.

Happy Thanksgiving!
