Happy International Jazz Day!! We enjoyed this Tuesday with a lovely performance from K & L Duo. What kind, talented, fun people! So happy we could celebrate with some jazz music and enjoy their company this afternoon. Today we celebrated April birthdays as well, a huge happy birthday shout out to Carolyn and Dick! Everyone loved the cookie cakes and to have such a great turn out and lots of smiling faces, what more could you ask for?

How can a day go wrong when you have manicures in the morning and beautiful weather to enjoy! Jerry was playing his air trumpet for us this afternoon and man oh man can he play good! We enjoyed some side walk chalk today too. Hope everyone enjoyed this lovely day like we did!

Last week we had a meet and greet to welcome our new Health and Wellness Director, Sara Zaugg! We had such a great turn out and are so thankful for those that took the time to join us! We are so thankful and excited to have Sara join us! Today and all week, we continue to celebrate Sara and thank her for her kind heart and service in choosing the path of nursing! Happy Nurse’s Week to all who have continuously put others before themselves! It takes a special person to do that of a nurse!

What a great day to be loved by God! Always a pleasure to have pastor Greg in our building to do bible study. We had a great morning turn out that set us up for an incredibly happy day. It was so nice to see one of our furry friends join us too! What a great group! I hope everyone’s day was just as amazing as ours :)

Mondays are meant for Bingo but, that doesn’t mean we can’t move manicures up a day as well! I hope everyone enjoyed the sunshine we’re having today! Let’s have a great week :)

Happy FriYAY!! We didn’t let the rain and gloom bring us down here at Bickford. We celebrated with happy hour and crafts to honor Arbor Day! Of course we had a few snacks as well. I hope everyone has a great weekend and stays warm and dry with all this rain we’re suppose to get!
