Mardi Gra Party

 

Mardi Gra was a big hit here at Twin Rivers.  The residents loved the lunch, deep fried shrimp, dirty rice, asparagus and Mardi Gra cupcakes.  The party was fun also with masks and crowns.  We played a game to win beaded necklaces.  Fun was had by all!   Hats off to the leader of the pack “Lora Keeney” activity Coordinator.  She made the party so much fun!!!

 

Carnation Angel Craft

Our residents enjoyed making Carnation angels.  The craft was such a hit that they plan on making a valentine, St. Patrick’s Day and a Easter one with all the appropriate colors for the month!  Great job Lora!

Craft, Pine Cone Wreaths

The residents enjoyed making their Pine Cone Wreaths this week.  One of the many Christmas crafts on the calendar!

 

Visiting Angels

 So many of our residents will move or rehab at Angels Care Center here in Cannon Falls.  Our Friends here at Twin Rivers miss them so they started a group called visiting Angels.  They all load up on the bus and go visit those friends they have missed!  It was a great time with a lot of hugs, laughter, and where friendships were rekindled.

Potatoe Necklace Craft

 The ladies had a ball making these potato necklaces.  They peeled and cut up potatoes, let them dry for a couple days, painted them and then strung them with other beads.  They all turned out so nice.

Halloween Party!

Happy Halloween from Twin Rivers. We had so much fun at our Halloween party. It was called the Twlight Zone and we watched clips of Twilight Zone, had Kitty Litter dessert (which was prepared in a kitty litter box and a scooper was used) and green slim punch. Fun was had by all!

The activity calendar highlights for this week include the first “Garden Club” meeting of the season, dinner at the Chinese buffet, “Blue” bingo and a trip to the zoo on Saturday!
