Some Christmastime Memories

So I've been making slow progress in uploading, tagging, and captioning Grandma and Ken Raleigh Sr.'s photos to FamilySearch (so they're preserved for our posterity) but progress it is! I've done about 330 photos and have about 100 photos left! I'll share the complete album soon, but you can check out the ones of Ken Raleigh Sr. on his FamilySearch page as well as Debby and Kathy's. Below are some Christmastime memories I found from those collections as well as a few from my own scrapbook.


L to R: Kenny, Mike, Debby, Kathy



Christmas 1959, Springbrook Way looking towards the front door. This is what it looked like before the basement was built ;)


December 1967: (L to R) Back: Mike, Steve, Kenny Debby, and front: Kathy holding Jeff, Chris

Chris and Jeff showing off their Christmas loot, 1974


Steve in the backyard showing off the snow


Steph and Jansyn at the family Christmas party, 1987


Steph giving Santa her Christmas wishes with Justin, Brian, and Lauren in the background, 1988. Ha, don't you just love Brian in the background?

Steph opening her present at the family Christmas party. Don't you love how little kids have to be right there to see what the other kids got? L to R in the background: Jen, Tyler, Kallin, Amanda, and Reid (correct me if I'm wrong).


Super bad quality photocopied print I have, but I love this family Christmas pic of you guys! Nick's confident pose and Tyler's cute little mullet :)


Merry Christmas Raleigh/Furse family!!
