Halloween

Halloween is always a fun time to stretch the imagination and slip into a more youthful outlook.  This year our halloween party included our residents, families and caregivers.  Everyone dressed up and participated in the food and games.  

Take a look at some of our food offerings. Centipede grapes, Cupcakes and worms, deviled eggs with olive spiders, and mummy pizza's.  Of course we drank blood juice...  The theme was creepy foods. It was all for a laugh and to highlight creativity.

Our residents picked their costumes and were having fun being in the spirit of the occasion.  we had a king, a fairy princess, a she devil a bunny and Mr Cool.

The games we chose were within the theme as well.  We played halloween charade, acting out the clues.  The donut eating contest was fun to watch as the donuts were suspended from the ceiling and no one could use their hands! Roxanne found her rhythm right from the beginning and ate her way to winning!  Mark was a powdered sugar mess but a super good sport!!!

We moved into the family room to play a few more games including pumpkin bocci ball and candy toss.  Gladys seemed to win bocci ball every round!  She had a stack of candy as her winnings that was to be envied!  Much laughter and good sportsmanship highlighted the afternoon.  Its fun to play together!
