Sunday, December 24, 1972

Partly cloudy. I did a lot of last-minute things for Christmas, cooked also. In evening we all went to Fern and Lloyd’s for their opening of their gifts. They were pleased with their things. Then they all came up here and we opened our gifts. Had a good time. Dorothea, Dave and Jeff came about 11. They had been down to Dave’s father and mother’s for their Christmas. They stayed here tonight so to go down to Betty’s tomorrow.

Monday, December 25, 1972 Cloudy, Rain

A cloudy and rainy forenoon then it stopped storming, but it was cloudy. Up early, got ready, down to Betty’s about 7 AM. We got the turkey in and then they began opening the gifts. They all got a lot of very nice gifts. We sat down at one thirty to a very nice turkey dinner. I got so many very nice things from my family. Electrolux sweeper, dresses, can opener (electric), shoes, towels, washcloths, diary, aprons. A very pretty comforter for our bed. Bill got an antenna for his colored TV, new pants, shirts, ties, a bench grinder, Schlick razor. Billie got a new grass trimmer, a new TV.
