From Della Hodges Hardison to her stepson & his wife

Saturday Dec 11--65

Dear Les + Dolores,

    Well Christmas season is here and as usual I am not ready. How I am going to miss Bill putting up the lights, mailing the Christmas cards, and a thousand other things.

    I am sending you a package, hope you like what's in it. If they don't fit, you might be able to exchange them at a Sears store. I didn't know if you could get Black Walnuts in the store up there or not, so I picked out some for you for candy. Tell the children they grew on the tree by the gas tank just outside the yard fence.

    Dolores, I wanted to get the children a nativity set but can't find one here with music so I am sending you five dollars to get them one. I know that won't get a very large one but maybe you can find a small one with music at Sears. Thought they would enjoy arranging it + the music too. Hope you all are well and that you have a happy Christmas.

Love always,

Della
