On Friday, December 14th, Elite Homes opened its doors for our 4th annual Christmas party. But this year there were more doors to open. The party now spilled over to
our new 3000 sq. ft. home design center on the 1st floor of our office building. Guests were treated to a live cooking demonstration in our new custom kitchen by chef Joe
Castro. Mingling throughout the crowd were look-alikes of Abraham Lincoln, Willie Nelson, and Colonel Sanders.

And of course, Santa made his annual appearance with a bag of gifts. Some guests took the opportunity to check out all the new faucets, fireplaces, appliances, and other endless products displayed in the design center. Some party-goers were even found lounging in our new home theater. The grand opening of Elite’s new design center is scheduled for early 2008.
