WINTER journal pages

Winter is the topic of this pair of pages.  I have lots of winter memories.  Christmas was always THE holiday of the year.  We had glow in the dark icicle ornaments when Iwas about 3and I first remember a decorated tree.  I got a Goldielocks doll, I think it is in a box of memory stuff.  I also have lots of snow related memories, too.  Blizzards top the list..we had 2 really bad ones that hit while we lived on a farm.  One left us without electricty for 3 months!  We made candles from jelly wax and crayolas.  There were drifts higher than our house and we had a snow cave.  Later when we had moved across the state and I was older, I remember sledding behind a car.  We had a nice sledding hill, it was a 2 block long hill.  We took turns standing at the corners watching for cars.  The start of the hill and the sled run was a state highway...now  the cops would have gotten us!
