all the heirlooms that are out there in blog land.
A BIG Thank You to Marie at Emma Calls Me Mama
For hosting this party, be sure to visit all the party
people for some wonderful eye candy.
As everyone knows who has visited my blog I am
a nut for antiques and heirlooms, even if they are
not my family heirlooms. I just look at this way I'm
just caring for them until someone else has to take
over the job.
So here we go with a few of my true family heirlooms.
My Grandfathers Bible.
Every morning before anyone got up, he would make
himself a cup of coffee, go to his little study and
quietly read the bible. It's all tattered and torn now
but worth a million dollars to me.
This is a quilt that belonged to my Great Grandmother.
Also very worn, but precious to me.
You can see all the scrapes of material she used.
They were farmers and very poor, but nothing went to
waste.
An oil lamp also belong to my Great Grandmother.
And last, this pump organ belonged to DH Grandmother.
Be sure to visit all the other participants in today's party.
Please feel free to leave a comment, suggestion or question,
I love hearing from everyone.
See everyone Monday!!
Have a Blessed and Safe weekend.
Bye for now!!

Love the pump organ. We have one but it doesn't have the top piece. Yours is fabulous.
Oooh, what wonderful heirlooms, treasures indeed!

What beautiful reminders of your family and your husbands. Does anyone play the organ anymore!
Thank you for your sweet comments. I really didn't post to get a pat on the back. My heart is heavy for them.

The treasures you have are so special. I wish I had an heirloom or two. Love that Bible.
