Keeping close people close at Christmas.


Mariampolis, Lithuania, December 25, 1936. My Mom and her family spend Christmas with her maternal Grandparents. Mom stands in the back row, with her eyes closed. Her friend Joy stands next to Mom, and Joy's father is behind Mom. My maternal Grandmother, Jadzė, is in the front, at the left, wearing the dress with the funky spoke design. Next to Jadzė is Joy's mother, and next to her, Joy's Grandmother.

Here's another photo from the same celebration.
