Christmas 1969 - The Fisher Price House

The Fisher Price House in the 1970 J.C. Penney catalog. We also had the barn and the plane.

Christmas 1969 - Joe's Tree

This is the first year I remember having my own tree. I remember waking up Christmas morning and seeing this tree and then scampering downstairs with excitement ready to start the day. Our Christmas trees were obtained from Grandpa Les and Grandma Jean's land located just outside Two Harbors. We'd go there to visit the grandparents for Thanksgiving and bring back a large tree for the living room and then some smaller ones for our bedrooms. The Noah's Ark quilt on my bed was made by Mom.
