Christmas Past...What a Blast!

Christmas is also Phil's birthday! Here are Lisa and Phil, Christmas 1982. We lived in the little house on Orange Grove Blvd in South Pasadena...a very tiny home, but one of my favorites!

Phil opening presents....we lived in Fillmore, California at the time. Santa brought the kids musical instruments...including a drum and other very noisy items. What was Santa thinking??

Lisa on Christmas day. What could be more fun? We used to tell the kids they couldn't leave their rooms until 7:00 AM. What torture!


Mary Anne half asleep trying to enjoy her new toy scooter. We lived in Alta Loma, California at the time.

James in his Superman pajamas opening up Superman cartoons.

Opening the stocking stuffers...always so much fun!

At Grandma and Papa's home in Glendora. Mom always put on a wonderful dinner. We usually played bingo and had a little game or talent show. Such fun times and wonderful memories. Sometimes my dad would write a mad-lib to read.

Lisa and Mary Anne on Christmas Eve.

We do get snow in St. George once in a while. We built a lop-sided snowman....either that or we lived on a hill...

I think this is actually a Thanksgiving picture, but I had to include it. So many of our holidays included the Wolfe family. We had some fun times!!! Left to right: T.J., Danny, Ryan, Tom and Mary Anne. This pic was taken at my parents' home on Winding Lane.

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY!!!

I'm so glad you posted these! Such wonderful memories to...remember!

Being at grandma and grandpa's for Christmas was my favorite thing in the world to do. And YES it WAS torture. Finally, that snowman still looks huge to me, even now!

Love you! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
