We are definitely getting ready for fall. We have been making wreaths, wine glass pumpkins, and mason jar lighting. It certainly will be festive around Brookdale Jones Farm.
Our Brookdale residents have had so much fun lately with our weekly "Make and Take". We have made button bowls, lavender sachets, and birdhouses. We certainly have some talented folks.
Another one of our fun activities — a cooking demo! This week we enjoyed chicken spaghetti, roasted parmesan broccoli, peach tea, and a wonderful brown sugar cheesecake. Yum!

Who knew you could make such cute pumpkins out of mason jar rings. We had so much fun decorating the rings and then putting them together. We even put fairy lights in them, so they could light up.
Even if it is starting to get cool outside, Brookdale Jones Farm residents find ways to stay active. We love Corn Hole, it also helps us with our bowling swing.
