Quilters Part 14


Star of Bethlehem
She made the most of all holidays. Christmas didn’t matter when as long as we were together. There were Fresh Christmas trees from the woods and presents wrapped in comic paper.


Dennis: Our family took full advantage of all holidays, going all the way with whatever traditions that happened to stick. What mom and dad said was a little was always more than we needed when gifts were handed out. Togetherness and fun must have been what they were trying to instill in us.


Sharon: The Greatest memories of any holiday is the fact that we are together as a family. Christmas fun always begins with great food like Mom’s cookies and egg nog.
Mom and Dad seemed to always have special gifts for the grand kids like matching clothes, jewelry or skunks. Dad called the little kids poll-cats, so Mom made the kids stuffed skunks. Then Sandy started the yearly gift exchange of ugly shoes, which were old, but somehow Mom ended up with chicken shoes.
