Look who made a surprise visit to our community in Banker's Hill, CA - its Santa and Mrs. Claus and lots of friendly elves! 

The Claus family joined the residents and their families for the community's annual Milk & Cookie Social event.  Everyone enjoyed lots of delicious holiday treats and professional carolers provided the entertainment. Plus, they all got to let Santa know what they wanted for Christmas. 

As we looked closer, we realized that Mrs. Claus looked awfully familiar.  Wait a minute, that's General Manager, Lori Hansen! 

The Santa pictures were a big hit and everyone got their own personal photo as a gift from the community.  

Ho Ho Ho!  We wish you a wonderful holiday from all of us at Merrill Gardens.
