"In advance," says Dee, "I bake and freeze many cookies, leaving them unfrosted. On our special evening the kids decorate these cookies while additional batches are mixed and baked." Her husband, Gene, makes the spritz cookies. Ornamentation is completed by four-year-old Tori, seven-year-old Terri, ten-year-old Tony and Tracy, who is 12. "We make small holes in the cookies," Dee states, "so that we can hang them on a tree. We trim this tree with a very few small and bright decorations, but it is mostly just loaded with colorful cookies to be served to guests. "The kids think it's just great," she adds, "to take these cookies from the tree for their friends." Dee Brown was born in Olympia. At the age of 14 years she moved to Rochester and 18 months later to Toledo, Washington. The family next J ecora located in Chehalis where Dee completed her senior year of high school. "Dad was a logger," she explains. For two years Dee worked in the kitchen of a Chehalis rest home, after which she made her home in Port Townsend, employed in a similar facility. "I joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints when I lived in Port Townsend," she relates, "and I met Gene through church activities." Two months later Gene said: "We might as well get married and get this show on the road." They did so, and their first home was on Gene's Matlock property which was home to 30 peafowl, many crows and raccoons, three horses, a monkey and a pet turkey that slept on the porch and ran to meet Gene when his car drove into the yard. "Gene had lions at one time," Dee says, "but he didn't have them when we were married. I was accustomed to pets.

Fortune is always on the side of the largest battalions. Marquise de Sevigne always had animals at my childhood homes, and I helped my dad with them." Deanna Brown describes herself as a country girl, and finds complete fulfillment in her beautiful and spacious Agate area home. "I have all the pleasures I need," she declares, "just in looking at this scenery and in caring for my family. I wanted our children to be reared where they had space to move around." Her children share July birthdays, and one big party is held in celebration for all. "It's Christmas in July," Dee laughs. The children, like their parents, love animals and there are many household pets which include two Afghan hounds and a poodle. Prissy and Patches are cats. Iggy and Ziggy are iguanas. Tomrnie, Dicky and Freddy are canaries. Two pet rats are called Sweetie Pie and Shannon, the latter named for an aunt. "We're also feeding two stray cats," Dee announces. Mrs. Brown likes to read when the house is quiet and the children have settled in to bed. "I used to sew a lot," she says, "'and I will again when Tori goes to school.
