REXBURG (Homestead Senior Living) — Residents at The Homestead Senior Living recently proved that a little mischief goes a long way toward fun and community spirit.

With smiles, laughter, and carefully planned “sneak attacks,” residents surprised employees with a playful fake snowball fight that quickly became the highlight of the day. Armed with soft, faux snowballs, residents waited patiently for the perfect moment to strike.

As staff members walked by, they were met with harmless tosses of pretend snow, followed by bursts of laughter from both residents and employees. The unexpected ambushes created a lighthearted atmosphere and turned an ordinary day into a memorable winter-themed celebration—no cold weather required. Employees happily joined in the fun, returning “fire” with their own fake snowballs and cheering on the residents.

The activity sparked friendly competition, encouraged movement, and most importantly, strengthened the bonds between residents and staff. Hallways echoed with laughter as everyone took part in the joyful chaos. Events like the fake snowball fight reflect the vibrant culture at The Homestead Senior Living, where creativity, humor, and connection are part of everyday life. By embracing playful activities, residents continue to show that growing older doesn’t mean giving up fun—it simply means finding new and imaginative ways to enjoy it.

At The Homestead, moments like these remind everyone that laughter truly is timeless, and sometimes the best memories are made through a well-planned “sneak attack” and a handful of fake snowballs.
