Friday June 25th 1880 I did a large washing this forenoon and worked all the afternoon doing part of the ironing some scrubbing and plenty I found to do. Mother spent the day at Uncle Jims. Saturday June 26th 1880 I ironed in the morning and did a little baking. Grand-ma and Anna with Aunt Linda Adams and Mrs Holson spent the day here. I rode over to town after supper. Weather pleasant. Sunday June 27th 1880 I helped do up the work and went to Sunday school I believe I am going to enjoy my class very much. I stayed to church and in the afternoon wrote to Carrie Jones and Clara Musselman. It rained very hard just after supper. Win was here and had to stay all night. Rob and I went over to Folsoms just before night to invite them over for tomorrow afternoon.
