Dad's Diary - Christmas

December 25
1934 - Went to the program at the Potlatch & got a little too much wine last nite & fell for Bud's girl, Rose Shelton.  Left Tulalip at 3:30, came down railroad tracks.
1935 - Kay & I had our Xmas dinner together.  The rest of the family went to the church tree in the wagon.  Rain & ice.
1936 - Nice and warm.  Got a lot of presents.  Had Bob, Tillman & Jasper's families.  Visited Massey's.
1937 - We ate chicken dinner in the camp.  Had a Xmas tree at Earl Miller's.
1938 - We had chicken dinner at Amiel's and Xmas tree.  Visited Doaks, Lewis & Macy.  Sissy made us come home.

Doesn't sound anything like Christmas nowadays!  No matter what we had or didn't have, our parents always made Christmas special.  M
