Christmas Dinner Menu December 25, 1943

Merry Christmas to the Sherlock Clan.

Joanie found this in her Dad's papers.  It was the actual menu from MCRD PISC

(Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island, SC)

Not sure on the travel of this menu.  Did it got to the Pacific with Jerry?  Did he send it home.

Well either way it was a perfect condition.

Merry Christmas

More photos!

Jerry's Clan - Christmas 2011

Jerry's clan gathered on Wednesday to celebrate our Christmas for 2011. A good time to get some family photos. We went outside to take advantage of the good lighting. It was brisk with a breeze so each family didn't stay long but we did get some good photos.

In order of eldest to youngest, the siblings lined up for their family pictures

Brouilland Christmas

Jerry went to the Brouillard monthly gathering, this time celebrating Christmas with a great potluck table of food and desserts followed by a Yankee swap.

This photo depicts the variety of foods available, all very good and worthy of 'seconds'.
