Spring is officially in full bloom at Bourbonnais Grove! 🌼
Our wonderful residents have been busy "planting" a different kind of garden this week. These stunning paper daffodils were all handmade with a lot of patience, a little bit of glue, and a whole lot of heart.

Ladies and gentleman were treated to a spa day recently at Westwood! As you entered the room the lights were dimmed, relaxing sounds of a stream and birds chirping, essential oils of lavender filled the air. The experience began with an avocado, yogurt mask, cucumber placed on the eye lids and a warm towel. While they were relaxing with the warm towel they were treated to a hand massage. Everyone loved the pampering so much they asked if could be weekly.

March was absolutely bursting with life at Miller Healthcare! Our residents stayed busy, getting creative and celebrating some of the month's most unique holidays.
Check out the highlights from our month of makers and creators:
🌈 Finding the Light
For National Find a Rainbow Day, we didn’t wait for the sun to peek out. Residents became amateur scientists and artists by building their own spectroscopes, allowing them to create and capture rainbows whenever they wanted!
💎 Tea Time with Flair
National Jewel Day called for some serious "bling." We took standard tea cups and turned them into sparkling masterpieces with custom bedazzling. High tea has never looked so glamorous.
🐼 Panda-monium
To celebrate National Panda Day, our residents got crafty with fabric and paper, creating adorable quilted book pandas. They are almost too cute to put down!
🌸 Blooming Creativity
For National Day of Flowers, we practiced some "upcycling." Residents used old book pages and vibrant color sheets to engineer stunning 3D floral art. Who knew literature could bloom like that?
🥁 Marching to Our Own Beat
We couldn't let the month pass without some rhythm. On our Music Day, everyone tried their hand at instrument making, crafting custom hand drums to keep the beat going all afternoon.
🏠 Home is Where the Stick Is
Finally, for Something on a Stick Day, we got architectural! Residents re-created miniature versions of homes... balanced perfectly on sticks. It was a sweet, fun way to wrap up a month of building and creating.
We are so proud of the talent and energy our residents bring to every project!

There is nothing quite like seeing generations come together to celebrate. This past weekend, our halls were filled with the best kind of energy as families, residents, and grandchildren teamed up for our annual Easter egg hunt.
Watching the kids scout out the "perfect" hiding spots while our residents cheered them on (and maybe gave a few helpful hints!) was truly the highlight of our week. It was a beautiful reminder that joy has no age limit.

Moments We Loved:
• The "Resident Scouts": A huge thank you to our residents who took their roles as unofficial coaches and egg-hiding experts very seriously.
• Family Traditions: Seeing families reconnect and make new memories in our community is what it’s all about.
• Spring Spirits: The smiles were just as bright as the baskets this year!

A special thank you to our wonderful staff and the families who joined us to make this Saturday so festive. We are so lucky to have such a vibrant community here at Bourbonnais Grove.

The sun was out, the grass was green, and the competition was... surprisingly intense! 🐣☀
We had such a wonderful time at the Westwood Easter Egg Hunt. It was so great to see all the families come together, the kids running wild, and a few "pro-level" egg-spotting skills on display.
A huge thank you to everyone who helped hide the thousands of eggs (and to those who helped eat the chocolate afterward). Westwood really knows how to celebrate spring! 🌸🐰

They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but being there live? That’s worth a million. The energy was electric as Westwood residents turned up the volume! From dancing in their seats to singing along, the crowd couldn't get enough of Erik Donner.
The ladies and gentlemen of Westwood have spoken: we’re already begging for a curtain call!
