The residents at Caretta in Holmen absolutely love cheesecake!! ❤️
They had a great time talking, mixing and sharing their favorite flavors of cheesecake.
However, we didn’t get a picture of the end product because the cheesecake was gone before we remembered to get a photo!

The gardens at Caretta in Holmen are taking over! We can’t believe how big they are. The Marigold plant is huge!
The residents are out by the garden many times throughout the day picking the veggies, watering, weeding and of course eating the cherry tomatoes right off the vine!
Some residents just enjoy sitting by the garden and watching the plants grow!
It’s all the love, care and hard work that makes our gardens so special. ❤️👩🌾☀️🪴

What an absolutely beautiful day for a little trip to Elmaro Winery!
The residents were very happy to have a gorgeous day to enjoy some wine tastings and they have the best alcohol free wines for those who cannot have alcohol and feel included in the special day!
They also have local bread, meats and cheese trays to enjoy. Which we enjoyed as well.
The staff at Elmaro was excellent and provided great service.
