Your memory of Granny was great only you did forget one very important part of her staying up all night Christmas Eve wrapping gifts till morning. Then as we all opened them how Butch always seemed to start a huge paper fight with all the gift wrap, it was so much fun!!!! I have her small village and have been wanting to refinish and set it up, it is so old, remember those cardboard houses!!! Thanks for honoring her, she is always in my mind, espeically this time of year. Hey Marijean, I am glad I wasn’t the first name on your list of cousins that you got into trouble with.

She was a very special lady and the glue to our family. Christmas was always special because she had the Spirit of Christmas in her. She was not only my Mom but my best friend and I miss her too.

You got me all goofy and emotional about someone I never met, but now deeply regret the missed opportunity. I'm sure she'd be very proud of her granddaughter. You are both very lucky to be part of such a loving, reverent family. Golly, Marijean,

I love it! It makes me feel like you're right here in the room. Thanks for posting my daily fix of Marijean on the World Wide IntraWeb (have you seen "For Your Consideration" yet?). As for me, with much prodding by my dear husband this year, I think I might actually produce a McAllister family holiday letter after five years off. Some of us have a bit further to go;-) I’ve been catching up on stlworkingmom. I love it! It makes me feel like you’re right here in the room.
