The Barbie Movie

What is it about the Barbie Movie that is creating so much attention?

Ok.  So we clearly had a lot of fun showing the Barbie Movie in Rayburn Hall on Friday.  The pre-party was a hoot!  The energy our residents brought to the event was palpable.

It's a fun movie, but since I'm blogging on a website for a Senior Community, I thought I might dig deeper and my attention went to the bench scene.  Academy award winning, fashion designer, Ann Roth, meets Barbie on a bench where Barbie looks at this elderly woman and says, "you're beautiful," and Ann Roth responds, "I know it."  There it is!!!  Women talking to each other through generations.  Barbie's decision to leave Barbieland and embrace the discomforts of the human experience and to see beauty in aging are some of the themes in the movie.  

There was magic in the air on friday as we drank pink cocktails, ate pink popcorn, and enjoyed each other as modern women living in challenging times.

Clark Meadows had it's own "opening ceremony" for the 2022 Winter Olympics yesterday.  Lynne, Julie and Claire carried flags representing the USA, China and the Olympic Games. One of our residents even carried the torch!  Decorations included flags from many other countries, as well as a USA Hockey uniform! Terry and Rebecca represented China, Kristen represented the X-Country skiing event, and Lynne, the Ladies figure skating event.

Our music therapist, Katherine sang two beautiful songs and we all enjoyed Olympic videos, followed by a sampling of hors d'oeuvres from various countries.  A great time had by all who attended.  Now......Let the games begin!
