This past Sunday October 28th we dressed the kids up in their Halloween costumes, brought bags of goodies and took them to the nursing home with several other families. We visited many of the residents in the home and had a wonderful time. The longer the kids were in there the more comfortable they were giving hugs and talking to the residents. We will definitely be going back on a more regular basis. The smiles the kids brought to many of their faces were priceless. They told us before coming and upon arriving that they LOVE kids and what a treat it is for kids to come because they see so few of them. Being able to share our children with these people was amazing for them and even more so for us. Watch the video below to see how it went! One of the highlights was meeting a 105 year old woman that is a resident at the home. In the video she is wearing a striped shirt and the kids are crowded around her. She is filled with so much life. She was so animated she was capturing everyone's attention.
