Saturday, January 4, 1936 - Mother & Daddy went shopping

 


Mother & Daddy went shopping down the [Muskegon] Heights. Mother got out at 3.30 P.M. from work. The snow house we had almost melted down to the ground. it came almost up to Jack's neck. Now it's up to about his knees. Mr. & Mrs. Taylor visited at our house today. They brought us some candy, apples, presents. They gave me a ball, ten jacks, and a handkerchief."

Since it was payday, Marie and Bryan went shopping. They probably also did shopping because the Taylors ended up staying for the weekend (see tomorrow's post).

"I went to the show today and saw Will Rogers in old Kentuckey. Grandma and Granfather Kenfield visited at our house today. I showed Grandma my Christmas present. I got a diary, sewing set, dishes, color book, story book, paper dolls, eversharp, new testament, stable cut out for Christmas."


It looks like Shirley had had a very nice Christmas!
