The New Party People





It is obviously a team effort at the Roscoe Facility that allows for the homiest feel possible, when a family takes a radical plunge on behalf of a loved one. Yesterday's festivities proved this, once again.

Family Day was executed entirely by staff. I wish I'd taken more photos to demonstrate the amazing food spread, all prepared in house. Watermelon baskets and plentiful fruit displays enhanced it all. Many proclaimed it too pretty to eat!
Roscoe's dining room is gorgeous to begin with, and yesterday, each table sported a bouquet of flowers. The party spilled over to the the great outdoors, pictured here on CMI in several previous posts - here's one. Tents, balloons, tables and chairs were set under a brilliant blue sky with special effects... that is, smoke from an enormous barbecue pit. We quickly moved out there; but again, I've no further pics. Shame on me!

Unfortunately, our family is busy, busy, with the beginning of school and various sporting interests for the GrandLoves. It was nice, though, to share our day with Shirley, Madre's new best friend.

We are so grateful to all we've met, thus far... kind, caring people who make Mom happy and us confident. If you're in the hood, stop in for Friday night cocktails...

Thank you so much to the new party people we've grown so fond of.
