Do you go to Grandma's house for Christmas?

My Mom used to travel from Kaunas to Mariampolis to spend Christmas with her maternal Grandparents, Silvestras and Zigmunta.

Mom remembers the vividly colored, German-made, glass ornaments that hung on the tree.


Mariampolis, Lithuania, December 25, 1936. My Mom's maternal Grandfather, Silvestras, sits at his piano while his wife, Zigmunta, looks like she has something on her mind.

UPDATE: Recall that my Mom celebrated Easter with her paternal Grandparents.
