Yesterday was National Craft Day, so naturally we had to take part! The residents and I made suncatchers! I wish I had taken a picture of the moment I hung Sharon's in her window. The sun caught the crystal perfectly and little rainbows lit up her suite. Such a nice way to welcome the sunshine!

Last week was all about Scotland!
We had lots of fun visiting Scotland during our Armchair Travel.
We also hosted the Lakeside Highland Games. Throwing rubber boots at "Welly Wangin" made for a good laugh.
The residents enjoyed the highland dance performance by the Brigadoon Dance Academy.
The grande finale to the week was a traditional Robbie Burns Dinner and Toast to the Haggis. We would like to extend a great big thank you to the Pipe Band for their lovely performance.
