Decking the WillowBridge Halls

Yesterday I caught you up on the last of the decorations in our apartment, but we also had a community day in which we decorated the Community Room, entry, and outside of WillowBridge! I thought I'd give you a glimpse of the day.

I stayed up late the night before our decorating day, stringing several hundred lights on our tree. (I thought that would make decorating day go much faster.)

The next day we had a taco bar for lunch, which was a big hit with the tenants. (Who are we kidding? It was a hit with the team, too!)
While we waited for lunch to be ready, the WillowBridge babies had fun chasing each other around. 
Before we decorated the room, we decorated some ugly Christmas sweater cookies. I found these on an end cap in Wal-Mart and bought them on a whim for about eight bucks. They turned out to be everyone's favorite part of the day!



Ryan and I played with the babies so their parents could decorate.

We thought the cookies turned out pretty cute!
Then it was time to decorate the tree, the room, and the entry. Here are a few of the pictures we took that day!







Did a few group pictures...


And when it was all done the place looked so pretty!

Although I don't say much I want to say Thank you for the work you are doing. My oldest child went through a similar program here in Ohio but he has severe autism. As a young adult it is so important to have these transition homes and the work you are doing will be impacted for not just your current tenants but for future generations.
