Christmas with the Lincoln family in Springfield

[LincolnMan]

Abraham and Mary Lincoln spent many years as a married couple in their Springfield home. They had a family there- the boys. This thread will be for fun and imagination is a necessity. How do you suppose the Lincolns celebrated Christmas? What do we know about this? What kind of gifts were bought? What do you suppose Abraham bought Mary? And what did Mary get for Abraham? Was there a Christmas tree in the home? I don't suppose Mr. Lincoln ever dressed up as Santa? Imagine Abraham going into downtown Springfield thinking: "Now what do I get Mary?"
