Yesterday I was cleaning out our bookshelf and came across some old photos from my grandfather's house, so I thought I'd share them. When I first got these, I was meaning to scan them, but then they just got forgotten in the clutter.
Another cool thing I found is a family tree written by my grandfather before he passed away. The only name I recognize on there though is my own, and through some deduction I can figure out a few people around me. Maybe someone can help with the translation?
No need for instagram filters...these pictures are truly vintage!

PLUS, I'm pretty proud of how organized and dust-free my shelves are now. :)
