A Full Day of Activity

We at Brookdale were honored this afternoon when 5th graders from Saint John's came over to entertain us. They sang with various ones providing accompaniment on the piano, two girls played violins and they recited Bible verses along with their songs. During a break they passed out greeting cards with a little treat. Most importantly, they visited with us. Rosellen told us this morning about old folks regaining their childhood by watching kids play "kick the can". I felt a certain amount of youth in talking with them and telling of my 5th grade in "Oak Grove" country school northeast of Garland.
We had just got back from Elaine getting her hair cut and set and my doing some shopping when we walked into the Dining Room for the entertainment.  In walked Carolyn and Jack. They had already been down to get his chocolate ice cream cone. Julie then also came up and we had a good visit in our unit. Carolyn and Ben continue to be involved on a daily basis in the construction of their house. We went past it on our way home and took the picture. Carolyn said they were installing kitchen cabinets today and continue to make progress. John and Julie will be taking Sadie and Jack to the Halloween Custom contest down at the Civic Center this evening. It is always a fun time.
