Happy Valentine’s Day! We had a great time celebrating the holiday of love at Meadowlark Hills on Saturday.  We started the party with yummy snacks: mini sandwiches, cookies, fruit, punch, and a little candy! Then, we put on our Valentine’s performance. We sang three songs with accompanying motions: “You are my Sunshine,” “Skidamarink,” and the Barney theme song, “I Love You.” After our songs Nick played a great piece on the piano and we handed out our Valentine’s cards that we decorated at Parents’ Night Out. The residents absolutely loved them. It must have been all of the glitter! To conclude the party, we dressed up in cool Valentine’s props (heart sunglasses, boas, scarves, etc) and visited each table to take pictures with the residents. It was so fun!

This party was a wonderful way to celebrate Valentine’s Day. We made new friends and helped brighten the lives of people who we don’t always get to see at the Fellowship. I loved it!

A big thank you to Kim Belanger and the Caring Committee, especially Kathleen Oldfather and Shirley Hobrock, for helping us create such a fun party!
