Ward 4 flashback

Ok, I'm not sure who else will appreciate this set of pictures. This is a way for me to get a bunch of pictures to all of my kids at once. Instead of sending sets of pictures in emails...
(I'm having issues getting the kid pictures to download, or upload? But there will be more pictures of the kids when they were little. I am not including the picture of Seth on the potty, or Jaden taking a bath. You're welcome!)

Your Canadian Grandma built houses with her Danish husband. But there are 2 big houses she built by herself. This is the first one, on Connie Road. Well, my Dad did some of the drywall, so he helped a little. This is the front of the house. There is a creek behind the house where the yard ends and the forest begins. When we built it, I was 12 years old. 2 stories, 5 bedrooms, dirt road, 10 acres. Awesome place.



This is what the yard looked like in the back. Full of birds. Which ones, you ask? Pretty much all of them. Turkeys. Geese. Pheasants. Lita raised a baby robin. Chickens of different varieties. Peacocks. A pair of everything! But not ostrich. She did have her limits.



The back yard during a rare bit of snowfall. This is near the small orchard, surrounded by blackberry bushes. Oh, and there were 2 big ponds. It was a dream place. The orchard had pears, apples, nut trees, all the good stuff.


This was the creek. Man it was cold! And pretty. Awesome place to grow up!!


This was the back of the house.
