Creating Shamrocks. We traced them, taped them on a white canvas, painted the background using their favorite St. Patrick's day colors while using wine corks and sponges as our paint brush. Pull the traced Shamrock off and out comes an outline of a beautiful Shamrock painting. They are so creative!

The highlight? Live music by Lars Carlson — our residents loved every minute! 🎶

We took a sweet trip to Perkins this morning to celebrate National Pancake Day the best way we know how — together! 💛

Stacks of fluffy pancakes, lots of syrup, plenty of laughter, and even better company made for the perfect start to our day.

Community, connection, and a little extra whipped cream — that’s how we celebrate!

🌶️ We celebrated National Chili Day a day early with a staff Chili Cook-Off!

Residents taste-tested five delicious entries and voted for their favorite. One special moment — a staff member made a resident’s recipe, and when he tasted it, he instantly knew it was his! ❤️

So much fun, flavor, and friendly competition. Congratulations to our chili champion! 🏆

Happy Friday!

Turns out great minds— and great style—think alike! 😄

Ran into one of our amazing residents today and realized we were officially twinning in the exact same jacket. Either we both have incredible taste… or there’s a secret fashion committee I didn’t know about!

All jokes aside, it’s moments like this that make our community feel even more fun and connected. When you look good, you feel good— and clearly we understood the assignment!

Who wore it better? We might need a vote 😂👇

⭐️Weekly Black History Moment⭐️

Given we are in full Olympic swing, on this day in 2002, Vonetta Flowers made history as the first Black athlete to win a gold medal at the Winter Olympics.

Teaming with Jill Bakken, she claimed victory in the inaugural women’s two-person bobsled event at Salt Lake City, breaking barriers in winter sports and inspiring future generations. ❄️🏅
