Today marked the beginning of a new tradition at Ivinson Home for Ladies, our very first Life Beyond the Home outing!

Life Beyond the Home is an initiative created to encourage our residents to remain connected to the community they love. We believe that living well means continuing to learn, connect, and experience all that our wonderful community has to offer. Through local outings and shared adventures, we’re creating opportunities to make new memories, spark conversation, and celebrate life beyond our front doors.

What better place to begin than the beautiful Ivinson Mansion?! 😊

Our residents enjoyed exploring the rich history of the home and the people who shaped it. From fascinating artifacts and elegant furnishings to learning about the remarkable legacy of Edward and Jane Ivinson, every room held a story waiting to be discovered. There were smiles, laughter, thoughtful conversations, and plenty of moments of wonder along the way.

A heartfelt thank you to the wonderful staff and volunteers at the Ivinson Mansion for welcoming us so graciously and sharing your knowledge and hospitality. We are incredibly grateful for the opportunity to experience this treasured piece of Laramie’s history together.

This was just the beginning, and we can’t wait to see where Life Beyond the Home takes us next. ❤️

🇺🇸❤️🤍💙 A little Fourth of July fun at Ivinson Home!

Our ladies proudly wore the patriotic tie-dye shirts they made earlier this week as we celebrated with a sundae bar, friendly games of co****le, and plenty of laughter under the shade of our beautiful trees.

The best memories are often the simplest ones—sharing stories, enjoying sweet treats, and spending time with friends who feel like family. We’re so grateful for another holiday spent together and the joy that comes from creating moments that make Ivinson Home truly feel like home. ❤️

💜 We’re Walking for a World Without Alzheimer’s 💜

Every memory tells a story. Every smile, every laugh, every shared moment matters.

This September, our team will be participating in the Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s in honor of the residents, families, friends, and loved ones whose lives have been touched by this disease. Alzheimer’s doesn’t just affect one person—it impacts entire families and communities.

We’re walking to raise awareness, support those currently facing this journey, and help fund research that brings us closer to treatments, prevention, and ultimately a cure.

If Alzheimer’s has touched your life in any way, we invite you to walk alongside us, donate if you’re able, or simply help spread the word. Together, we can make a difference.

📅 September 19, 2026
📍 Prexy’s Pasture, UW Campus, Laramie

💜 In honor of every cherished memory.
💜 In support of every caregiver.
💜 In hope for every future generation.

I am participating in Walk to End Alzheimer's. Donate today and help me reach my goal.

Breaking news: Co****le competition got intense this afternoon!!🌽

What started as a friendly game quickly turned into a showcase of serious talent, competitive spirits, and just a little bit of sass. 😆

Watching our residents enjoy a beautiful Wyoming afternoon reminds me why I love what I do. ❤️☀️

P.S. No official winner was declared… mostly because everyone insists they won. 😄

Today, we honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. Their courage, dedication, and selflessness will never be forgotten.

This Memorial Day, we pause in gratitude for those who gave so much for the freedoms we enjoy each day. From all of us at Ivinson Home for Ladies, we wish everyone a safe and meaningful Memorial Day. 🇺🇸

For five beautiful years, our sweet Mackenzie has poured her heart into serving the ladies of IHL with kindness, compassion, and dedication. We were overjoyed when her fiancé, Waylon, joined our team, and together they have brought so much warmth and care into this home.

As they begin their next chapter and prepare to say “I do,” they wanted to leave behind something meaningful for the women they’ve loved and cared for so deeply. This beautiful swing now stands as a lasting gift and treasured reminder of their time here — a place for conversation, reflection, laughter, and peace for years to come.

While we celebrate this exciting season in their lives, we also say a heartfelt goodbye. Mackenzie and Waylon, thank you for the love, dedication, and joy you have given to IHL and our residents. Your impact on this home will not be forgotten, and you will both be deeply missed. 💛

🎀💐 Today at IHL was filled with gratitude, smiles, and celebration. We are wishing every mother a beautiful Mother’s Day filled with love, joy, and the warmth of family and friends. 💐🎀
Happy Mother’s Day from our home to yours!

Our ladies enjoyed a wonderful performance by the one and only “Barth on the Hearth” (as he so cleverly called himself 😅).

Bartholomew Richards, it was a pleasure from the moment you walked into our home. From your humor to the beautiful music you shared, you brought so much joy to our ladies.
Safe travels to you and your wife !
