How fun! What a great opportunity to re-visit a part of your family history.
It really was exciting to be able to go back inside. This is truly the first house I have memories of living in. I remember other places, but not where we lived. We lived in an apartment before this, the only thing I remember is that the lady downstairs watched us. I remember her house, not ours.
I’m sure going inside provoked many more wonderful memories you had forgotten. And I love it when new owners of a property are interested in its stories from the past. Definitely a great experience. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, Jennifer! It was amazing to be able to go back inside the home and remember my grandma. She died about 9 months after we moved out.
