Welcome! We are a Christian family who cares for elderly individuals in our home. There are so many quotes, stories, and photos that we wanted to share with our precious "Golden Girls'" families, which they could view quicker and could be updated easier on this blog than we would ever have time (and memory!) to share with them personally. We also thought others might enjoy reading and viewing along with the families on this great adventure of their loved ones' golden sunset years. So sit back, relax, and enjoy your visit with us and "The Grandmas"!

February {Part 2}

February 14th came around before we knew it and it was yet again time for more partying, chocolates and flowers. Since Dad is the only man around here he has quite a few Valentines he shows appreciation to. However, the return from us ladies is usually quite balanced in it's giving, what with baked goods (chocolate goods, that is) to show our own love for him.

What does a lovely bouquet of flowers mean?? Valentine's Day, of course!

We made our own version of cake balls...and they were delicious and super easy!

The wonderful chef with her masterpiece of Italian garlic knots

The gang was all there...

...the meal was all dished out...
(consisting of lasagna, garlic knots, steamed corn & tossed salad)

...so it was time to dig in!

We were all suddenly surprised by beautiful bouquets!

One lovely arrangement for each of us

It seemed we had a secret admirer...

...and he was really fond of each one of us.

Can you guess who the sweet man was?

Ah-ha! The man with the fancy tie! (btw, Dad wears that every Valentine's Day)

Our table suddenly became an aromatic floral jungle

We had our own surprises...for Dad - heart-shaped German chocolate cake (and he ate it all by himself, though not in one day ☺).


Little Miss Fur-ball over in the pillows feeling sorry for herself

Hope everyone else had as sweet a day as we did!
