We came for the ice cream... and it did not disappoint. 🍦

A trip to Oldie's introduced us to giant scoops, delicious sundaes, and a new favorite local spot. Judging by the smiles around the table, we'll definitely be back.

Succulents aren't just for planters.

This creative project transformed them into beautiful wreaths inspired by our desert surroundings, with each one showcasing a unique design and personal touch.

From our Spectrum family to yours, Happy Fourth of July! 🇺🇸

The pool isn't just for cooling off—it's one of our favorite places to stay active.

Between Aquarobics, music, and plenty of encouragement, every class is an opportunity to build strength, improve flexibility, and enjoy time together.

We couldn't let the Norwegian FIFA team have all the fun.
Good luck in the Round of 16!

We hosted a Father's Day supper for the gentlemen of the community, complete with brats, beer, German apple cake, and a soundtrack of polka music.

The group spent the evening swapping stories, tackling sports and history trivia, and enjoying time together. One resident even claimed ...the unofficial title for most children in the room with five.

It was a great way to celebrate Father's Day weekend with good food, good company, and plenty of laughs.

This Juneteenth, we reflect on the significance of freedom and the power of perseverance. We are grateful for the opportunity to learn from the generations who have witnessed history, shared their stories, and helped create a more inclusive future for all.

A new monthly favorite has arrived at Las Palomas. 🌷Flowers Arranging Social!

We recently spent the afternoon selecting flowers and creating arrangements of our own. No two bouquets looked alike, and that was part of the fun. A special thank you to Laurie for helping provide the flowers... that made this program possible. We're already looking forward to next month's session.

The heart of our community wears many hats, but this week we're celebrating our CNAs. 💙

They are the familiar faces who start the day with a smile, lend a helping hand, celebrate milestones, and build meaningful relationships with our residents every single day.

Their ...compassion, dedication, and commitment help make our communities feel like home.

Happy CNA Week to the incredible team members who help our residents live each day with dignity, connection, and joy.

An afternoon of great music and an even greater cause 🎷✨
Our Las Palomas "Jazzbirds" recently enjoyed a trip to Ravenscroft's Jazz for the Soul program, where incredible live jazz supports meaningful charitable organizations in the community.

Residents were ...captivated by the original compositions, unique instruments, and talented musicians of The Local Spirits. Knowing the performance also benefited UMOM, an organization supporting unhoused mothers and children, made the experience even more meaningful.

Great music, great company, and a chance to give back. That's a day well spent. 💛

We were delighted and enlightened by our entertainer Jim Tharp. Jim has a background in music therapy and took the time to teach us about how he learned to play and improve upon his guitar skills. According to Jim, "there's no such thing as a self-taught musician! Even musicians that ...don't have a formal music education learn by watching others."

He showed us various ways to play the guitar, like the difference between "Chicken Picking" and "Travis Picking" (a technique he learned from guitar great Merle Travis.) Thank you, Jim, for taking the time to teach us more about music, the universal language that all of us understand and appreciate.
