Happy Independence Day from the Willows of Arbor Lakes

July 5th, 2019

To all the residents, staff, and family members of the Willows of Arbor Lakes: We hope everyone had a safe and happy Independence Day!

Goodbye 2018, Hello 2019!

January 16th, 2019

The end of 2018 and beginning of 2019 has been spectacular at the Willows of Arbor Lakes. Rounding out December, music helped make the Christmas holiday extra merry for us. We were grateful for the Living Word Homeschool Group carolers, the Osseo Oriole Chamber Singers, and Maple Grove High School’s Crimson Harmony singers. We also enjoyed a string trio organized by the great-niece of one of our residents, a nine-year-old volunteer who played Christmas songs, and entertainment by Amy & Adams.

Our residents also enjoyed some hands-on holiday activities this season including making gingerbread houses and cinnamon ornaments.

At last, we said goodbye to 2018 and rang in 2019 with a fun New Year’s Eve party!

Happy Holidays!

December 31st, 2018

Happy Holidays to all! We had a fun start to the holiday season at the Willows of Arbor Lakes. Some highlights include making Christmas cards for the military, singing all our favorite Christmas songs along with Loren Wolfe, making candy cane reindeer, and celebrating the birthdays of Charlotte, Rita D., Verna, and Joan C.

We also had a blast at our annual holiday party! Thank you to all the family members and friends who joined us. We enjoyed celebrating the joy of the season with you!

One Busy November

November 20th, 2018

We’ve been having an enjoyable November at the Willows of Arbor Lakes. We loved listening to Vinnie Rose sing and play the guitar. Randy Rolloff helped us celebrate the birthdays of Mae, Joan J., Mary K., and Rita N. We honored our resident veterans with patriotic readings, songs, and a certificate. To top it all off, the kids from the Maple Grove Homeschool Group helped us make a fun turkey craft. Check out our pictures below from all these fun events!

We Love Halloween!

November 6th, 2018

At The Willows of Arbor Lakes, we love Halloween! We had a blast celebrating with one another, and we were so thankful for the families from the Living Word homeschool group that came to visit us for Halloween this year. The kids did “reverse Trick-or-Treating” and brought candy for the residents. The residents loved seeing all the kids in costume, and the treats were a bonus. Take a peek at all of the fun costumes and the best Halloween celebration!
