I think this photo was taken in the alley by Grandma and Grandpa's house? I know the boys are Jeff and Mike. Don't know who the girls are - Teresa and Debbie, maybe?

All because two people fell in love...
Grandma and Grandpa created a huge family. Many of us grew up together, meeting at that tiny house every Sunday morning after Sunday school. Others lived far away, but your visits were greatly anticipated and enjoyed. We are spread across the country now, living our lives, raising our own children, some of us enjoying grandchildren. We are all different, but we come from the same roots.

I'm not sure on Debbie because her hair was so curly and frizzy that it stood out from her head kinda like a fro. That little girls hair is straight or looks that way. I do remember all the cars and trucks that were always parked in the drive to and the trash cans in the edge of the garden where they butchered chickens and burned the trash. In those days we didn't have trash pickup like now. You burned your garbage and then hauled whatever else you wanted to get rid of to the dump. A guy worked the gate at the dump and I recall many sundays wandering thru piles if throw aways scavaging for stuff. Clothes, books pots and pans dishes it was a yard sale for free. The guy at the gate made out OK too, grandma would take him some snack and I'm sure other folks did too. I think they said he was a "drinker" and down on his luck so his family needed whatever was given to him. Those were the days.
