A little on the cool windy side. I got my work done up early. Got ready and went with Betty to Westbrook and Portland. We went to the Kmart at Scarborough. Betty bought Easter dresses for the girls and a suit for Zak. I didn’t do much shopping. Dorothea went with us. Also Esther. I came home, got a birthday supper for Billie. I made a butter crunch pie and a cake before I went away. We had tenderloin steak, squash, baked potatoes and rolls and pie. Later in evening Betty, Walt and family came up and we had ice cream and cake and Billie had his gifts. I babysat at Betty’s while she and Walt visited at Freddie will will and Connie’s.
