Sunday, December 6, 2009 from 1 p.m. We kick off
the season with a St. Nickolas Day Celebration Tea.
December 6 is celebrated by Europeans as St.
Nickolas Day when children would leave out their
shoes for St. Nick to place treats in. We encourage
our guests to live like a kid on this day and leave
their shoes in our hallway for St. Nickolas to fill.

greet you with a photo opportunity in our beautiful
formal parlor. The tea will include; hot "Three Wives
