Happy Halloween from The Waters of Edina! 🎃This week we enjoyed seeing costumes from the Senior Living social hour and Petals Neighborhood party, but most of all from the preschoolers at The Berry Patch School! Their costume parade and singing during their visit was the highlight of the week! 🧡

Stay tuned for more photos from our staff costume contest happening today. We may even ask for your vote!

Question: What does a coffee filter, colored marker, and a water dropper have in common? Answer: They are all vital parts of a creative and colorful craft! Look at these gorgeous fall leaves made by some residents in our Petals neighborhood. 🍂🍁💦🖍️

🎈🥳 🎉OCTOBER BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION! 🎉 🥳🎈Did you know that more presidents were born in October and November(six in each) than any other months? We enjoyed cupcakes 🧁 from Yum! Kitchen and Bakery that were almost too pretty to eat! In discussing how everyone received their names, we learned an older brother got to pick the name out for one of our residents. We continue to discover interesting tidbits and fun facts about each other all the time, especially in these small settings. Happy Birthday to all of you who have a birthday in October!

What a busy day it was today in our Petals neighborhood! Our morning consisted of our signature Fitness Drumming, while our afternoon was rounded out with another signature program….Culinary Creations! Making (and eating) “healthy” candy corn sundaes made for a delicious October treat!

The Waters of Edina offers its Catholic residents a weekly opportunity for worship. Most Thursdays at 3:00 Father Kuss from Church of St. Patrick - Edina generously presides over Mass here on site. Paul Peterson (Director of Music and Liturgy) also accompanies Father from behind the piano. 🎹 We are profoundly grateful!

Social Hour is always fun, but was even more so last week when we celebrated Oktoberfest! 🍻Munich, Germany had nothing on us! 🤣

💜We are so fortunate to have Emily on our Active Life team! Emily holds a Masters of Science in Clinical Neuroscience from the University of Galway. ☘️🇮🇪 She shared a bit of her expertise of Alzheimer’s and brain health with some residents, caregivers, and family last week! This captive audience learned a lot, including the little things that can make a big difference in the care of people with this disease. Thank you Emily! 👏 💜

Yesterday we basked in fall activities 🍁while clinging to the warm weather ☀️! Our morning outing included a trip to Bachman's Floral, Home and Garden, followed by a treat at Patrick's Bakery & Cafe at Bachman's on Lyndale. In the afternoon, another group experienced the beauty of the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum. The gorgeous foliage was admired from the comfort of the bus while enjoying some warm apple cider mini donuts from North Star Donuts. What a great day!
