Getting Into The Christmas Season!

We all know that everyone has their own preferences. For example, here are just a few of the Valley View Senior Cooperative residents that truly enjoy decorating for any holiday. Today, it was for everyone's favorite - CHRISTMAS! and look at these deserts, YUM!

I don't know about you but if I tried to bake these scrumptious delicacies I might be thrown in jail for criminal conduct to food, or there wouldn't be enough content left to bake. One must taste things before forging ahead too far. However, with the proper people in charge these deserts ended up being amazing! And what is more of a sleep disturbing thought is the possibility, the real possibility that these are just the beginning of what's to come. Ooooooo shivers....

As delicious (and dangerous) as the amazing cookies are, having beautiful decorations to view in the daytime or at night with just the light of the little make believe villages is a very comforting experience. Throw in a Christmas cookie or two and a hot drink and that's probably where I'll be found sleeping in the morning. The VVC Drool Patrol Unit will be on duty promptly at 0600 so if you slip off into a Christmas dreamland in the lobby, they'll be there with Windex and a towel and put you to work. Just kidding...

There are many ways one can choose to volunteer at Valley View, whether it is decorating as in this particular post or maybe you find you would enjoy gardening, or creating the amazing Bundles of Love baby comforters, repurposed Get Well cards, or donating some time to a building committee might be a better fit for your talents.

Whatever you would like to do, there is usually a spot for you to be with friendly neighbors, tea or coffee, and a few runaway treats to enjoy along with the group as you have fun using your various talents while undoubtedly encountering some good laughter along the way. Some folks prefer to keep to themselves and that's fine too. Valley View Cooperative is a great place for all to enjoy life. Don't worry, you will be welcomed and find that you can fit right in!
