Family Time

So cute he is and that smile, I could not help but smile when I saw it.

He is indeed a lovely little boy, Lorry. And in my opinion too did he choose the correct cake. I love chocolate!

Sam, I will be thinking of you this weekend. Having the grandchildren for the weekend is a lovely affair, but thinking of how tired I am when Abi visited us for a weekend, and she is alone! Can't think yet what one does with more than one! I think you will have to go on strike again for at least an hour or two so we can chat a little!!

Just a few more additional photos of my family..... I do not want to bore you, but Lorry is to blame.... when she added the pics of Bailey, I also wished to share some more....

A pic of Abigail and I taken a year or so ago:


The whole family and grandma:

ohh
I should've seen this page earlier than 7 cups

I just knew you would live in a beautiful lokcatie
it looks very peaceful,
and the animals around you
ohh me gompie,, i,, exchange instantly with you
you,,in me dollhouse .. and I in you splendid nature .. hahah joke lol


anidup, you know, when I saw you at family time

(She is deceased, r.i.p)

I understand that you feel proud with you familly  
---------------------------------------------------------- :redrose:   :redrose:

Those pictures are beautiful Anita..you and your girls look so much alike :inlove34:

Those tree roots are huge omgosh..I can just imagine what that tree looks like lol..

Those animals omgosh..I have been to the Zoo 2 times in my life once when I was 13 and stayed with an Aunt and Uncle in California and when my kids where little to the Zoo in Saint Louis, MO...

But would love to go on an African Safari..when I am awake at 6 am I watch the Big Cat Diaries and wonder what it would be like to be that close to those big cats..I think it would be awesome and scary at the same time..am in awe of those guys and gals that do that..

Thank you for the pictures Anita..they put a smile on my face..

Marie, Bailey continually makes me smile. He is full of personality, love and cheekiness :summerB7:
When I was at his house he accidentally tripped over my leg, he was so worried he had hurt me. He rubbed my leg then he kissed it and said sorry! OMG it was the sweetest thing I miss him so much.

Poppy you are right, kids today are so much smarter. Bailey picks up so much by just watching, he doesn't miss a thing :snoopycool:

Anita, oh my gosh, your photos are amazing WOW. This is why we have threads like this, this is exactly what we want to see. Pictures of you with your family in your country Like Sam said, we'd have to go to the zoo to see anything like this, it's amazing.
Little Abi is an absolute doll, she is just too cute for words!

Ohhh Sam you are in for a wild weekend, and you will probably love every minute of it. With a little bit of this and :hisummer3: a little bit of that

All right you ladies have asked to see me so here I am!



And here's my sweet little nephew! He's the sweetest little thing. :hearty: He's the apple of my eye.

OMGosh alouette you are beautiful.. other than the glasses you look like a girl from Ramona that was on my Website and played Sims2,3,4..but then she grew up to 16 and decided that Facebook and boys were more important lol..

Haven't talked to her in a while..I should contact her and see how she is doing..I adopted her on my site..very pretty girl..

And your nephew is so cute..:inlove34:

Thank you for sharing..now we have a face to talk to instead of a computer lol..

Thank you Sam! That's very sweet of you to say.

I agree with Sam, Alouette you are beautiful........at first I thought you were Poppy! I think it was the long dark hair.

Your nephew is sooooo gorgeous, I just love babies. What is his name?

It's so good to put a face to the name, for sharing your beautiful face with us

lol .. broomie has done well,
to ask your pictures,
good work broomie,



it is wonderful to see you with your little sweet heart :babysmi:
I would certainly be very happy and proud with such a beautiful Humpty


and yes lorry hit the nail on the head again
What is his name
if I can guess that,
I think his name is ... charley

super that you also are to us with your loving treasure
Thank you dear alouette :redrose:

Poppy: It is indeed a wonderful place for me to be....and for a while I will change places with you and have you experience it too!
I have not heard about the country singer before, and had to quickly google her name, you are right I do see some resemblance! Only one big flaw on my side..... I can not sing! Not even in the shower!

Sam: that is indeed a huge huge tree, and declared a heritage tree. So it may not be cut or felled and nothing may be built too close to it. But it makes a good picture.
You will have a heart attack by being in the field, my dear friend, when the lions start to roar..... it gives goosebumps! I will upload some pictures about my visits to the Kruger National Park.... when the look at you with that yellow eyes you stop breathing! They are so beautiful!
I will take you and Poppy with me one day for a very long visit.... and you can have all the fun you want with the deer and other animals at Marloth Park. I will take you to the Kruger Park and hopefully be able to show you the Big Five! What fun that will be!!

Edit: The pics for Sam and Poppy:





And just one of my other family!!


Lorry: I am so glad that you started this thread....and I enjoy it so much to share my family with you all. Both my parents are deceased, neither of them able to get to know the partners in the children's lives and therefore also not the grandchildren either. Who else then do I have to share them with than all my precious friends here at CBS.
Bailey acted too cute trying to comfort you.... those are the moments when I will eat them up!! He is already such a kindhearted little boy! One can see that form the open and beautiful smile he has and the laughter in his eyes! I so wish for you to be able to see him often!!

Alouette: Thank you so much for sharing yourself with us.... you are indeed beautiful! I love it too that I would now "talk to the face" and not to the name anymore...
Your nephew is just too cute! I adore babies, it is so much fun to have them in one's life!!

To all of you, thank you for taking the time to read through my posts, and for enjoying my family with me. It means so much to me....you are darlings!! :Valentine10:  

For those who asked, here is my wedding dress! I only have a photo of the bodice detail. I'm waiting for my mom to send me the full dress photo.

ohh my gompie, this is so special anidup  :flirty:

how can we think
that when you go shopping,
you think,
ahh I take equal eve delicious fruit along for Jimmie Lion
off poppy and broomie monkeys ... lol anidup
because they are on the road
how beautiful is this
all to see wildlife
Thank you dear anidup for these beautiful pictures
it stirs me really
Just the very idea
that you have there in your nature,
and here we are glad when we see a bat or a squirrel
You know anidup
I hate zoos
always had,
because animals belong in nature
and not to entertain people through a cage or window
Therefore I look often discovery channel
how nature works and grows

You know anidup
it's weird that I say
but when I first came here and read you messages
I thought
anidup it is quite peculiarly person .. and that you are  :redrose:



hey,, broomie look they have that picture of us found
when we went to watch the children at the kindergarten




And you always pull my tail '' huh,,
Now you can see it in the picture ..lol  

Ah Poppy... you are so kind!
We always joke when we find the baboon on the road,
and tease that they are our brothers and sisters.
They are quite peculiar these animals.
Ugly as they may be, they can be quite fun to sit and watch!

Alouette, the wedding dress is gorgeous and very feminine!
I love it!!

Alouette, how lovely to see your picture! A gorgeous lady! And a very beautiful wedding dress too.
Anita, I love seeing your pictures of wildlife. It is a real privilege to be able to see in real life. We obviously don't have lions and monkeys here, but I would love to see. I was watching a beautiful video a few days ago, about the Lion Whisperer, a man who shares a Pride, he can stroke, hold and sit with the lions. Bliss!
I just have my little grey squirrel in my garden,lol. I think there's a fox, but he keeps well hidden and I often see a little family of hedgehogs scooting across the patio!

I missed Alouette's dress......is that like a snap chat picture

Anita  RUN  

Wow I have seen one at the zoo many years ago, but never that close
I do have to say though, he is very majestic.  I bet his name is Mufasa
When I was little I always asked my Mum to get me a monkey, she would always reply "but we already have a monkey, just go and look in the mirror"

alouette I was thinking that dress can't be the picture of a cat and the words "Photo not found..click for photos"

Anita omgosh..they are beautiful..Lions and Monkeys lol..I would love to get that close to one in the wild..

poppy your funny Jimmie Lion off poppy and broomie monkeys

hey,, broomie look they have that picture of us found when we went to watch the children at the kindergarten

Oh Lorry that is funny..

We have a fox that goes by here late at night..we have lots of tree squirrels, Raccoons, Opossums, and things like that..have a family of ground hogs..that live next door but don't come out very often..the neighbor had to move a few Raccoons to the other side of the river..they tend to destroy property..lots of Owls and Hawks as well..they land on the light pole and omgosh they are huge..have to watch Tiffany she is so small that those Owls and Hawks would just grab her and take her away..that would destroy me..

Love this topic

Lol!!! Lorry.... I can't stop laughing at your comment about the dress!! That is funny!

We were at times as close as a meter from that lion.....but believe me, we were all in the safety of our cars. That was an old male, marking his territory so we were able to follow him for quite a while, before he went back into the bushes. He would have just one chomp..... gone.... feet and all!!

Szanne: I love your photos...... it is a dream of mine to be able to travel a little when I am older. But up to now our finances just did not allow any travelling. Would love to see your area in real life!! Looks very exciting.

Oh nuts I moved them to a new album and forgot to update the link.

Ooops, the pictures are gone off alouette     

I was just going to say,, that the top of the dress is already loos beautiful
and that your mother very quickly to send the pictures
what your mother made us very curious now lol


but that's your choice to show it to us
you should feel no obligation hear'' dear alouette

We find you without the pictures also very peculiarly

I'm happy for your you to get married
and that you may be very happy, :redrose:

In 2012 I took the hand prints of all the grandkids at the time..then took pictures and put their names on one hand and picture on the other..in 2014 Evan came along and I got his hand but so far have never gotten a picture of him when he was that age..but will sooner or later lol..

This is all for now sorry..

On the other thread with Animal family members put the animals over there

Sam I love the hand print pictures, that is such an amazing idea. I would love to have something like this. I do have Bailey's foot and hand prints from when he was first born.

LOL fortunately we can't see the dust, so you have no need to feel embarrassed. It's nice to see what surrounds you, that's all that matters

Horses, books and Sims2 are my hobbies lol..

On that top shelf I am ashamed to say are some devotional books I have been neglecting lately and should get back to reading them..on the third shelf is a bible that my sister gave to me last year..it a large print so I can see it but it's so big and hard to hold..but I do open that often..and read a verse or 2..at a time..or at least I try to..that is my pride and joy will take it out of the box tomorrow and take a picture of it and show you all.

Once a year my sister will order a bible from a minister that she listens to on TV..and gives it to someone that she feels worthy that year..I was lucky enough to get one last year..

I'm missing a picture will find that tomorrow..my sister has trees that are over a hundred years old..and when a branch falls off they take that wood and cut it and make things out of it..she made one with horses on it for me and it says love sister..in glitter..and of course I have more horses on that stand as well lol..and a very old teddy bear..not sure where I found it but I have kept it..

Love the pics, Sam!!
