April in Devonshire

April at Devonshire

A few activities have resumed recently. Devonshire residents are now able to get back to their Monday night chair yoga and the Tuesday night movies. Lunch out once a month has resumed and several residents enjoyed a delicious lunch at B.J.'s Ale House along with some wonderful conversation.

Bob Longenberger, a longtime resident celebrated his 96th birthday with a visit from a group of Marines who helped him celebrate. Bob served in both World War 2 and the Korean War. Devonshire is honored to have many veterans living here and we thank them so much for their service.

The garden has opened and several residents are getting ready to begin their spring planting. Flowers and vegetables are planted each year. One of our residents in the past year has brought us some of the largest sunflowers I have ever seen.

The employees recently celebrated "National Pretzel Day" with a variety of pretzels and another staff member spoiled them with a delicious Banana Pudding Cream Cake. All was thoroughly enjoyed.

Several residents are getting together outside now that the weather has gotten warmer. A group of ladies get together on Thursday afternoon and a group of gentlemen get together on Wednesday afternoon. Everyone is thrilled to be able to get together with their friends and neighbors.

To end this blog, lets have a little humor.

Why can't a bike stand on its own? Because it's two tired!

Just went to an emotional wedding. Even the cake was in tiers.

If I agreed with you we'd both be wrong.
