Engagement !! from Mother's diary 1981

"Wed., Dec.23, 1981
Cooked, shopped, and wrapped packages. We went to grocery store.  Helen, Jeff,Ina, Cline,Greg, John, Deb, Ann, Sam and girls.We had such a good time. ... Jeff announced his and Helen's engagement and gave Helen a ring tonight.  We are all so happy.We all love her and she is just what the Lord has given to Jeff. We then had another party and took pictures. It was a fun evening. Everybody was just so happy for Helen and Jeff.
We have never spent so much for Christmas.  $200. just for groceries.  Prices are so high, but we bought everything we wanted to have it for all the children."
