I dreamed that I was in a car with my mother and grandmother and my cousins to at least. We were all females in the car. The strange thing is I could not see no one's face but I know it was them because I could tell by their voices they're distinct voices was noticeable by everyone who talked even though I could never actually saw their face in the dream. I always could see the back of their heads the color of their hair and their body but no face. And the dream we were in the car driving on a road we stopped because we saw an old house it had been burnt down it was near a pond and my grandmother and mother wanted to go explore it so they stopped the car and let us get out and go in the dream we walked up to the house my grandmother and mother picked up old bottles glass bottles well me and my cousins played around the pond I can remember giggles laughing running around and playing tag with my cousins while my grandmother and mother in the background what do you don't get close to the water. I don't remember what happened after this if I woke up or not but that's about all that happened in the dream it was just very distinct that I remember this part. The ages in the dream seem to be a throwback as me and my cousin's felt like we were in a younger age maybe around 10:00 years old. My mother and grandmother in the dream were younger as well possibly my mom and her late twenties and my grandmother in her late 40s to maybe 50.
