| Gingerbread Houses |
Anna,Katie, David and Christopher worked on making the Gingerbread houses. They also helped decorate the Christmas tree.
When my sister and I were growing up, we always put the tree up on Christmas Eve and then we would have hot chocolate and cookies. We did not open presents until Christmas morning.
We did not have a lot of toys. We were happy with simple toys and games. We did get dolls for Christmas. One of my favorite toys was a little metal cat on wheels. You pulled the tail down and it went across the floor.
My mother always made a nice Christmas dinner. There were only the four of us. We had no cousins to visit us. My mother's family was in Iowa and my father's family was in Montana. We played games and did a lot of reading. Elsie and I really enjoyed our time with our parents.
Stores did not sell things for Christmas until after Thanksgiving. Stores were only open from 9am to 6pm. No stores were open on Sunday.
