This picture, taken in December, 1955, shows our angelic younger sisters at their very best - demure poses and all. This was my last Christmas at home, and it was a special one. You can see the tinsel on the tree that was carefully saved from year to year, to say nothing of the decorations and lights. No matter what our age, Christmas was and is magical. Occasionally I still look for the chocolate creams and the ribbon candy that we used to get in our stockings.Thursday, December 4, 2008

Those nighties took a lot of yards of flannel, but you could curl up inside them and keep warm!
And they even had lace on them. It was like curling up inside a soft, warm blanket. And the flannel had a particular smell to it (or is that odor?) that made it feel as though they were truly Santa Claus nighties. Were those the nighties with the little lavender flowers on them?
P.S. And angels we were!!!!
not.
There is no GOOD, SOLID evidence to the contrary, therefore, we were.
