“Vintage” Toys

A while ago my Mom gave me some old toys out of “my” closet – you know the one that is in her house that is part of the room I grew up in until I was 18… yeah that closet.

The box she gave me while threatening to toss it included my little kitchen toys that I remember playing with a lot as a little girl, pretending to cook up something, probably for her.

So the other day I was out doing some yard work and putzing around the garage when I found the box and when Katie girl saw the contents she freaked out.

“Kitchen!!” she said.

Next thing I knew I had spread a blanket out for her on the lawn in the shade while she played with my toys…

…and it was SO fun to watch!  Of course now they are her toys and she has since moved them into her kitchen in her room.  And yes, it is just too awesome to see her playing with the same toys I did, so many years ago.
