After learning about the different kinds of tortoises in our Animal of the Day chats, Lone Mountain residents finally got to meet them in person. Their favorite part was feeding them carrots and petting them. Who knew tortoises loved affection 🐢❤️?
Residents at Las Palomas took over Osaka Steakhouse in Mesa. Oh, what a show they put on for them! They laughed so hard at everyone attempting to catch flying food and sake in their mouths.Some of them are trained seals 🤣 "Cheers!" Or, should we say, Kanpai 🍶.
The first-ever #CookieClash between The Oaks at Algonquin and Silver Glen was a success! Silver Glen’s team, “The Sons of Batches,” SOBs, battled out for a chance to get their chocolate chip cookie recipe featured at @uprisingbakeryandcafelith ! The two categories judged in this cookie clash ...were 1. #BestChocolateChip, and 2. #BestDecoratedSugarCookie. Our cookie, “Chip Off the Old Block,” a potato chip-based chocolate chip cookie, was a salty showstopper. We choose geodes-inspired cookies with edible rock candy and glitter for our sugar-decorated cookies. The battle was a tight race, and both teams came out on top due to a split decision. Come purchase The Oaks’ “The Chocolate Cherry Chew” at UpRising in February and our “Chip Off the Old Block” in March!

The #SouthviewCrafters got a visit from a special friend last week ❤️ Anita, Doris, Laura, Jerry, Cuca, and Linda greeted little Millie with the refurbished pony they crafted for her.
Thank you to our Regional Director of Operations, Dan, and Lauren for bringing Millie! The ladies had ...a blast spending time with Millie!
Millie may not know yet, but her family has a lot of history with #Southview. Her dad, Dan, was raised in #Affton and helped open Southview 10 years ago! She also has a great-great-great aunt that has made #Southview her home for almost a year now!

Residents at West Chester celebrated the third week of their aquatic-themed 🐠month by visiting the @NewportAquarium, where they witnessed a giant eel, felt a sea anemone, held a starfish, and stood in a tunnel filled with sharks. We have two weeks to learn more about ocean life and soak up the ...beach vibes🏖️
The Community Studio, teaches our residents how to paint and draw. They also help our residents work with clay. This art class allows IL, AL, and Memory Care residents to work together. Last week, we worked with acrylic paint.
As The legend goes, sailors would often get the number 13 tattooed, so bad luck would see the mark and pass them by. Residents at Homestead had a blast joining in on this decades-old tradition and got themselves some "ink" to mark the superstitious holiday.

On this week's #ResidentonDisplay, Barb has been quilting since her early 20. She is now 73 and can display her quilt collection and different techniques.
She does hand quilting, machine quilting, and hand-tie quilting. Barb has worked with denim fabric, wool, suit fabric, and cotton.... Barb has created log cabin quilt patterns, one of her favorites, since she and her husband lived in a cabin with Christmas trees all around them.
Members of Silver Glen’s #AdventureClub calmed it down by trying #ArielSilk #restorativeyoga✨ at @sagehealingco . Restorative yoga focuses on slow movements that highlight mind-body tension. We practiced balance, core strength, and breathing as we worked our way around the silk hammocks.They ...nailed the cocoon pose.
