Rainy

We spent new years eve at kirks. Had an oyster supper, cards, candy sandwiches and drinks, Filsons, Marraye and Ethels sister & husband were there. Had a nice time but did it pour on us coming home. We stayed the rest of night up home. I sewed on Ava's dress; then in eve took alvins and went to shower for Rachel & Husband. Had a nice time there too. Still rainy tho.
