This week, Freedom House residents enjoyed their own Cowboy Breakfast. Residents and staff wore their finest boots, hats, and jeans, and they even helped the tacos settle with some good old fashioned two-steppin' and line dancin'. We love having a boot-scootin' good time here!!

Freedom House residents had a BLAST watching the Super Bowl together and enjoying some non-alcoholic beer and traditional snacks! Our residents love doing familiar things, and we are always sure to incorporate fun just like this into our regular programming. Cheers to a good time!

Residents made their own name plates, using whichever nickname they preferred, to hang outside their doors or sport on their walkers or wheelchairs. Each picked their own color, and staff printed their names with a Cricut Maker, giving it an extra special flair. What a fun way to spice up the new year!

This holiday season, Blue Skies employees, including those at Freedom House, were given a holiday bonus as a thanks for their hard work. Residents also donated to an employee appreciation fund for our hourly employees: nurse aids, housekeeping, front desk, maintenance, and dining employees to name a few. Overall, it was a joyous occasion, and we're proud to show our employees how much we appreciate them!

The John Jay High School, San Antonio, Texas Orchestra members visited Freedom House for a holiday performance for our residents. Music is one way we can reach even our most distant residents, giving them energy to tap their toes, clap, and sometimes even dance. Thank you to these young people for sharing their gifts!

Check out our new partnership in our daycare facility!

We are so incredibly excited for our daycare program to join forces with Pre-K 4 SA to become a Texas Rising Star Accredited school! Located in Freedom House, our Alzheimer's Care and Research Center, our Child Care Center is already unique as it includes regular programing with the seniors in our care. Now, our teachers will receive training for a Child Development Associates (CDA) certification, and Pre-K 4 SA will help us become a 4-star Texas Rising Star Accredited Center.

The list of benefits for all involved are limitless, and we are proud and grateful to welcome such wonderful partners to Blue Skies. Bravo to all involved, especially Child Care Center Director JJ Bryant!!

Residents at The Mission gathered for Veterans Day, and those who served were honored with special pins acknowledging their service while others received flag pins. One resident shared his memories of his days in the service, and an entertainer led the group in patriotic songs while pastries were served.
