"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.
You are cordially invited to join us in celebration for "Name
That Holiday Tune" Music Game, Cooking Corner: Traditional
Holiday Cookies, Holiday Dance Music with Gene Testa, Van
