We are having beautiful weather here. We have a big snow, but it still awfully nice. You asked if I have a nice dinner for Thanksgiving. I guess vou would call it nice, we had turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, gravy and canberry sauce and coffee. And for Christmas the same thing and also for New Years, so you see we eat pretty good on the holidays. I have received 11 Christmas boxes so far and they are still coming in. Pve never received the box from you yet but suppose I will be getting it before long. Did you have a nica Christmas? This is Gwendolyn’s 'list one isn’t it I’ll bet she was all eyes Christmas morning •ann't she? How is Russell geeting along? Iraniima says he Is getting so 'at he can hardly yet around. ’d sure like to see him. Well I^eona I’ll have to close 'or now. Be good and write. Lots of love,
