We had so much fun at our Spring Bloom event here at Deer Ridge Memory Care. 🌷

Residents and their families, along with visiting loved ones, joined our staff in planting spring garden beds right here in our community.

We created both a vegetable and a butterfly garden, and with the perfect weather, everyone had a great time digging in the dirt and creating something beautiful! 🪴☀️

This spring, we invited the greater Pierce County community to come play our lovely baby grand piano for our residents and fill our memory care with joyful sounds and the results have been simply amazing.

Here are just a couple clips from some of the talented performers who have blessed our residents with the gift of music. One resident said, ‘I wish we could do this every day.’ Others raised their voices to sing along and filled our halls with hymns. Our hearts are full and our community is full of beautiful music. 🎶
