Simpler Times

I thought you might like a tour of Grandma and Grandpa Moon's home.

When you come in the back door you walk into the utility room--which I always called the utidly room when I was little. 

There were two recliners.

One for grandma and one for grandpa, back in the day.

Then it was one for grandpa and one for me.

I loved sitting in this room just shooting the bull with my grandpa.

Before the recliners there was a couch. I remember Saturday nights watching Lawrence Welk in this room while my mom put curlers in my hair for church on Sunday.

The doorway to the right takes you to a hallway where you can go downstairs to the left or walk up to the kitchen on the right.

Janie got a kick over how much taller she is than Kloe was at 13.

Here's the cute kitchen.

Simpler times.

If you keep going down the hallway there's a bedroom to the left.

Mama Jan slept here for part of her life.

A bathroom by the bedroom and one more bedroom I forgot to snap a photo of.

This is the living room where we have SO MANY great Christmas memories.

We brought back a few things for my mom.

The living room wraps around to "the North room".

 I did not go to the basement.

It has always creeped me out.

A lot of the farm has been sold.

If we were still young parents I would have loved to buy the parcel the house sits on.

I guess Scarlet will have to do.
