It's Midnight Somewhere! We had a wonderful, fun-filled New Years Party today. Residents, family and staff were here to welcome the New Year. We hope you and your family have a safe and healthy New Year.  The Residents enjoyed receiving their yearbooks today at the party. The yearbook goes over all the activities we have done from 2014. Special thanks to Ashley and Natalie for volunteering at the party today! Enjoy our party pictures.  

We were so happy to have a photo booth at our Holiday Party this year, that I thought we should share some of the candid's shot in the booth. Residents, family and staff had a great time!

It is the fourth night of Hanukkah and here at San Carlos Elms we make sure that we have the candles lite every night. Tonight Regina lit the candles for all of our Residents of Jewish decent. Happy Hanukkah from San Carlos Elms. 

It might have been wet and cold outside, luckily we met the Little Explorers Petting Zoo in our garage. It might have been a little cold, but the animals warmed us up and it was nice to be dry.    The lamb & goats loved Margo's walker. Philip enjoyed the one month old bunny. JoAnn enjoyed the black bunny. Karen didn't want to let hers go. Anita didn't want to let Oreo the bunny go. Carol wanted proof that she was holding a one month old bunny, "no one will believe this" Carol said. The Little Explorers Petting Zoo did such a great job setting up in our garage. It didn't even feel like a garage. Special thanks to all the Managers who moved their cars for this event, it was appreciated!
