Christmas Party

We had our annual Christmas Party today.  It is almost Christmas and today we had our Christmas Party at Winter Ranch.  It started at 1 PM.  First, the 2015/2016 Activity Directors, Mary and Lee Benfield (that be us), presented the outgoing Activity Directors, JD and Lynn Murray, a little Christmas gift which we insisted that they wear for the party today.  Don't you love their new hats!  And, they light up!

Then we started with the real entertainment for the day.  First, Penny Vollrath did a tap dance routine for us.

Then Bud and Pat Becker played and sang for us.

Karen Timko then sang "I Heard The Bells On Christmas Day."

Then Santa showed up and pronounced our dancing Winter Ranch girls all "naughty."  They danced to "I Ain't Getting Nuttin for Christmas."

Santa decided that all the girls were naughty.  

The girls are so unhappy that they aren't 

getting nuttin for Christmas!
