A look back in time

A week ago my Brent and I took the boys to the "property" to fish and ride the motor bikes. Spencer took his metal detector to find some treasures. As he was looking for money and gold he came across this lid. What a find Spencer. I love this picture.
As he was continuing his hunt he found this key hole.
Looking through this, is as if we are looking back into the past.


I wish the walls could tell the story of this home. Why they built the house next to the Weber River and what did they do while they lived here. Who are they you ask, I don't know but I wish I did. Brent's Grandpa bought the house from them many, many years ago.


Here is one reason they probably built on this spot, the view out the window. It is amazing.


Grandpa liked to do his own repairs so he had his trusty, rusty cement mixer for all the odd jobs he promised Grandma he'd get done.
This is the infamous house. Just think of how lovely it once was.

Ah, I love the past. Which brings me to the next set of pictures.
I sometimes wish I could put these guys back in the past to when they were younger. Now look at how they have matured.

Aren't they just too cute!

Oh and by the way, we had no luck fishing so we just had fun watching these guys have fun.
