This Old House

Four great-great-grandchildren of William and Minnie came for the first time to explore the house that has been in the family for almost 100 years.




















Once again familiar hymns rang out from the old piano.






The children viewed 3D pictures through the Stereoscope and View Master.










They checked out toys and puzzles from the olden days with their grandmother...






and enjoyed the backyard.





See more pictures on flickr.

    Glad your dream came true. It was a great (hot) success. You are a great party planner as they say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. L.S.

    Seeing the kids sitting on the steps reminded me of the game we used to play on those steps, starting on the bottom, with guessing which fist was holding the small rock. If you guessed right, you got to move up a step, to the next "grade in school". The person holding the rock was the "teacher".

    Love,
    Linda
