Advent Calendar : Christmas Sweetheart Memories

Do you have a special memory of a first Christmas present from a sweetheart? How did you spend your first Christmas together? Any Christmas engagements or weddings among your ancestors?


My parents' first Christmas memory:

Weldon and I were married on our first Christmas.   I remember getting him a coat and he got me a watch.  We lived in Muncie in a small apartment. We had a little tree on a hand-me down corner table.  We went to my parent's house on Christmas Eve and to his parent's on Christmas Day.   We had just been married 18 days.

Wordless Wednesday: Chaperones

Gloria (Wright) LeMaster & Ord LeMaster (1970)

This photo was taken at a high school dance they were chaperoning.

Wordless Wednesday – a great way to share your old family photos! Create a post with the main focus being a photograph or image. Some posters also include attribute information as to the source of the image (date, location, owner, etc.). Wordless Wednesday is one of the longest running “memes” in the blogosphere and is an ongoing series at GeneaBloggers.
