December 25, 1978

Christmas Day, 78! First we opened our stockings. NO, first Joc + I woke up at 4.45 a.m.. Then we opened our stockings. I got a 'bag o' bells' for soft toys. Then we had to play Monopoly because the dads were at church. Then we opened our pressys! I got a school scarf, some gloves, some Turkish Delight, a book, a ring tree, two tokens, a CALCULATOR! and lots more. We went to the Rec for a while, came back + had dinner with crackers + indoor fireworks! Then this afternoon we played with our presents, watched tely, etc. We saw The Sound of Music and a James Bond, Diamonds are Forever.

This is exactly what I remember doing every Christmas Day of my childhood - watching James Bond, and getting very functional presents.
