Celebrate Little Things: December Events

"The more you praise and celebrate your life,

the more there is in life to celebrate" ~Oprah Winfrey

 

This December, as part of our Alive In All Seasons program

we will be focusing on traditions. Traditions play such an

important role within our lives by providing a shared identity

and sense of belonging, comfort and joy. Traditions allow us

to tap into our deep and rich cultural, family and religious

heritage. Our Alive In All Seasons tagline this month of

"Celebrate Little Things" reminds us that these traditions,

many of which are small, little things, can serve as the glue

that binds us together and makes our lives great.

 

Celebrations will be abundant this holiday season here at

Juniper Village as we share memories from our residents,

families and our associates about traditions, beliefs and

customs that have shaped our lives. We will learn about how

other cultures celebrate winter holidays, complete with the

singing of carols and the sampling of some delicious ethnic

treats. We will gain respect and insight into each other as

we reflect upon our unique and cherished traditions, and;

maybe create some new ones along the way!

 

You are cordially invited to join us in celebration for Songs

of Faith, Pictures with Santa, Making Gingerbread Houses,

Creating Christmas Penguins, Building a Snowman, Baking

Norwegian Christmas Cookies, a Saint Lucia Breakfast,

Aromatherapy Creations: Warm Apple Cinnamon Sachets,

Gift Wrapping with Friends, Out Trips: Local Neighborhood

Holiday Lights, Sharing Holiday Stories, and a Kick-off to

Winter Craft: Snowflake Creations.

 

So, this holiday season please stop

by and celebrate with us as we

"Celebrate Little Things"
