Both AL and MB participated enthusiastically in the baking and cooking club. Over the past few days, they decorated their own cookies, which proved to be extremely popular, as some residents consumed them immediately, while others were delighted to see the finished product of their efforts. Today, they prepared chili soup, perfectly suited for the cold weather, and everyone waited patiently to be served. This was followed by a Fall Charades game, where the smiles and laughter were truly priceless.

It’s an honor to commemorate Veterans Day with our sponsor, Fox Valley Chapter Regent of Daughters of the American Revolution. Through your support, our residents/veterans have made today’s tribute especially meaningful as we pay tribute to their service to our country. Additionally, the Crystal Lake High School musical group, who performed a stunning musical piece with their impressive instruments, has also honored our veterans. Happy Veterans Day! #AssistedLiving #MontessoriMemoryCare #BickofdofCrystalLake

Our MB and AL residents engaged in crafting their own miniature wreaths, deriving satisfaction from the decorating process and taking pride in the impressive outcome of their project.
