1958 Alice Nugent letter -Jan.13

We visited the Nugents on the 1962 trip to the Seattle World's Fair.  Think they were living in Seattle then, but could be wrong.  The memorable part of the visit was that the family was on a gluten free (?) diet, or some such restrictions as when their children discovered we had bread in the car, they gobbled it all up in very short order.

Dear Jean ––

We surely enjoyed your Christmas note, & were so happy to hear all the news of you-all – imagine!  A new home and a son all in the same year!  Three cheers!  Do you live very far from your other place? 

You must be busy indeed with four – but aren't they fun?  We've enjoyed the picture of your little girls that were on other Christmas cards – they look like you.  Does John?

Rickey-Bug had a fall at Christmas – next year he'll really have comprehension of what's going on.

Now that Rickey's two he finally beginning to talk & his vocabulary is growing quite well.

Carl's on surgery now & it's hard work, but he likes it.  I'm busy sewing at the moment with church activities & folk-dancing keeping my time full.

Do squeeze a minute to write me a line!  I think of you often.  Have fun!

All good wishes,
Alice
