An evening out at the old kitchen

It might have been the original house on this site. 

But we call it The Old Kitchen.
In some old houses, the kitchen was detached and sat out back to keep heat and the danger of fire away from the main house. If it was an old kitchen building, it would have served the little red house (now Martha and Mike's home) that used to sit where our home is now.
Whatever else it has been, The Old Kitchen has served as a dwelling and farm store in its day. 

One day this summer we decided it would be fun to have a family gathering inside--the occasion was a celebration of August birthdays of both Martha and Rachael. 
And so we did.
