More Christmas 2011 at The Highlands, the "Christmas Party"

With lots of music and food and merriment, all residents of The Highlands community gathered in the Maine Lodge Living Room and in the Media Room for good fellowship and good cheer.

Kristen Mellott, a member of the housekeeping staff, covered the front desk on Christmas Day.

Joe Goldstein enjoyed the copious shrimps as well as the ice sculpture.

Helene Linenthal sat in Santa's lap.

Muriel Gosselin & Bob Waterman found a tray of "goodies."

Dot Livingston chatting with Ted Thieme.

Joanne Adams & Frank Campagna joined in the fun.

We wonder what Santa was whispering in Elaine Kurtz's ear.

Jo Atlass shared in the great food.

Marcus Nordberg did, too.

And here's a closeup of the ice sculpture done by our dining staff.
