Grandma Edgar's

This was the year of family reunions.  A month ago we went to the Solomon reunion on Doug's side and now it is time for the Edgar reunion on my side.  I have a lot of memories of southern Idaho at Grandma's house.  I'm actually amazed at how many I have because I really don't remember much from my youth.  I have no idea why, but there it is.  So to stay at Grandma's house and look around was nostalgic for me.

This is Peter playing at THE toy drawer.  This has been the toy drawer since the dawn of time.  I remember playing with some of these toys.  It's nice when some things remain the same.


Parker and Lex playing on the swing set.  I played and posed for pictures on this swing set.  My cousin got a double barrel wound between the eyes from this toy.


Our "campground".  I played kickball on this lawn.  It sure doesn't look big enough now, but back in the day we had some rousing games with grandpa.


A cousin caught some toads to give away and the kids got a chance to see them.  They were big buggers.


And then there was a tiny one that Lex held.  Lost.  And held some more.  We definitely washed after this so we could go eat.


My uncle owns a horse and buggy, so all who wanted got a ride before dinner.
Evan and Lex are in the front next to Uncle Larry.


Ben and Peter up front.


And then Chris with Allyson, Justin, Sam and Finn.


This is Grandma's player piano.  I loved playing this piano and now my children get to play with it.


I love Grandma Edgar's house.
