Dear Uncle Earl, Aunt Mary, Margaret & Marvin

Know this is an exciting time at Margaret’s. My, how well I remember the Christmases were spent at your home on the farm as kids. I don’t think I ever saw so much candy & as many cookies since. Ha! Remember the Christmas we were all together in Indianola when we kids were older. We played “Bingo” for our gifts. And our wedding came on the 26th - what a day to pick for a wedding! Was glad you all came - even thru the snow. John’s been with us from Friday to Monday. We all enjoy him lots. I’m so bulky I couldn’t do all I’d like for him, but think he enjoyed the stay. We are expecting our 7th in April! We hope everything goes along fine & it will be a strong healthy little individual. The children keep reminding us that Christmas is near - but it’s still hard to realize its upon us. They are all in programs at Church, various schools, cub scouts. Johnny’s in the school chorus & they give a musical program tonight. His voice is changing as fast. He’s also on the B.B team. Hope you have a safe & wonderful trip Earl & Mary.

Love, Naomi & John
