Happy Halloween...

We each made a Halloween Bag to put our Candy in. The residents really have a fun time doing crafts. Some made ghosts, others pumpkins, bats, and some we weren't sure what they where. But never the less, we were having a good time. Most of the ladies sat in the big room and watched The Phantom of the Opera on the big screen while we waited for the Trick or Treaters to show up. Here is Oleve, Bessie, Joy, and Carol sit waiting to hand out the candy. Even though I watched them get a piece or two for themselves.
Dene with her bag.

Carol made a scare crow.

Here is Heinz with his bag. His had the most eyes.



Laura loves to see the kids come buy.

Oleve had lots of fun, making two sacks. She was puzzled as to why she had put I candy want instead of I want Candy.


Bessie is just always having fun.


Gaylia was the first in to make hers. She did pretty good.



Esther and her ghost.




Maria stuck with the simple, I want candy sack.


Shirley made a monster sack.

Lenore made a witch. It turned out really well. She said that the witch and her have the same hair.

I made the bat. doesn't it look like its really flying?

Bessie's granddaughter stopped in for a little visit. We like Sarah, but who does it look like she is visiting with?

BINGO











Here are a few BINGO pictures. I often wonder if I would remember how to spell BINGO if it wasn't for the song. The Ladies love a good game of BINGO thats for sure.

Monday...

It was nice to have Heinz grand kids come in and play the piano for the residents at lunch. We had Fried Chicken, Cucumber Salad, Potatoes, and biscuits for lunch. For desert, we had Ice cream with fresh Strawberries. Oleve ordered a very small serving, but didn't find it nearly as funny as the rest of us when we took her the largest plate we could find and placed a quarter sized scoop of ice cream with one slice of strawberry. Lucky for her we are an all you can eat establishment.

I hope nobody finds out that I put a little TLC in the cooking when no one is looking. And in case anyone has noticed the food is a little sweeter since Rene left, its because I accidentally touched it.

We are glad that Bessie's Grand Daughter stopped in to see her. We had a good chuckle.
