Kingwood Center is decorated for Christmas. There was a preview Friday night before opening their doors to the public. I had been in the house a few days before and seen the majestic 20 foot tall Frazier Fir set up in its stand. Partially adorned in the daylight it was an impressive sight. Walking in Friday night to view the fully decorated tree with 7,000 lights, made everyone stop with awe. Keeping with tradition, the Kingwood Center staff and their family, like little elves, ordered pizza and decorated the tree in the quite of an evening before all the guest were to arrive.
It was a lovely evening with Bill Collins and Kay Hostetler being host and hostess at the top of the stairs. The music of Charles Applegate playing the grand piano could be heard. All the decorated rooms were open for viewing. In the dining room, Nancy P. and Ann W. were serving frothy punch made from lime sherbet and lemon lime soda. A frothy raspberry type punch was being served on the other end of the house and cookies were everywhere. After a silent Christmas last year, all the traditions of Christmas have returned to Kingwood Center.
