October 31st is Jamieween!
The spookiest day of the year. A day for costumes, sweet treats, baked goods, skeletons, cool weather, pumpkins, and to celebrate chimpanzee, Jamie, on her birthday!
Jamie turns 48 years old today! Some days I can’t believe she is 48 because Jamie just seems timeless.
Jamie is bossy, assertive, dominant, smart, silly, and confident. Jamieween is one of our biggest days of the year, because Jamie truly runs this place. The least we can do is celebrate her in a big way each and every year!
Today, caregivers Kelsi and Katelyn planned a jam-packed party for Jamie’s birthday. There were ice treats galore (shaped like eyeballs and brains), special blood orange blended drinks, pasta with sauce, baked apples, baked potatoes, carved pumpkins, and pomegranates…. I’m also probably forgetting something else, but it’s getting late and I got to get home before the goblins come out.
I know blog readers are going to ask… which member of Jamie’s group stole the pumpkin? The answer is anticlimactic…. no one. The pumpkin is still out on Young’s Hill as I type this. Although I did see that someone messed with it a little, as the pumpkin looks like it’s been through something. Maybe tomorrow someone will take the pumpkin!
Enjoy today’s 11 minute video! You may see a costume or two and some SPOOKY footage.
Happy Halloween! Happy Jamieween!
