Sunday Snaps!

When my family were here from Paris only a couple of weeks ago, they took Eli and Ruby to a local farm, so I thought I would share some of the photos with you today.











They all had a lovely time, and the little ones were absolutely shattered by the time they arrived back home! Happy days! It's always lovely when the family are all here together.

Thisisme what a grand time they all are having. Just as i think I found the picture I like best then a better one comes up than the last one. Each one gets better. I love the ones with the kids hodling the pigs. But I do think my two favorite would be the donkey and the owl. What a grand time.
Thank you for sharing them with us.
Blessings

Duncan - out like a light!!

SkippyMom - thank you! Yes, I like the donkey one as well. He's not quite sure, is he?! Hee Hee!!

Bethe - glad you liked the photos today. I like the one of him holding the pig. His little face!!

Good Morning Diane,
Lovely Sunday snaps - you can see that they really enjoyed it :-) The donkey pic is great and also the big owl. Wonderful to have the family together, and you will go and see them soon :)

Lovely shots, the kids look so happy!

Southhamsdarling said...

Orchid - hallo my friend. I see I have some pretty stars on your comment today! Lovely! Yes, that is quite a big owl, isn't it?!

EvaMarie - yes, I'm off to Paris in the morning. Really looking forward to it because, unlike some that have been jetting off to exotic places (hee hee!), I haven't had a holiday this year.

Claudia - happy Sunday to you. Sorry to hear that it's raining at the moment! Yes, the little ones had a super day out.

What lovely pictures! I love the expressions on their faces. This is a day they will always remember. What a treasure trove of wonderful memories your building for them!

Shady Del Knight said...

Ruby with a lamb... Eli with a pig. These are priceless images and memories, Thisisme. I'm so glad to see that the children are being exposed to animals at an early eage so that they can learn to love and respect them. Happy Sunday, dear friend!

Raindrops and Daisies said...

Beautiful photos of gorgeous children.

Hasn't the little one got fantastic hair!

BB said...

I pulled another box of photo's out of storage yesterday so I'll be going through and scanning a few in here and there. Should be fun. I love your pictures. Those children are just beautiful. All 3 of them. Must take after their Awesome Grandma.

Dizzy - hi Carol. The owl was rather lovely, wasn't he? Hope all is well with you.

Shelly - thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed looking at the photos today.

Shady - Hallo there dear friend. They had such a lovely day with all the animals, and I agree that it's good for them to learn how to treat them kindly. Even now, whenever little Ruby comes in, she's looking for Alfred :(

Raindrops and Daisies - Hi there. Yes, I love Eli's hair!

Bouncin'Barb - hallo my dear friend. I love looking through old photos, and I expect they will bring back lots of memories for you. I look forward to seeing some of them in future post.

Shady - thank you for always popping by my friend. Hope you've had a relaxing weekend, although I expect you have been busy with your studies!! Take care.

Eli is absolutely charming with that blonde curly hair! I loved seeing the pictures of them enjoying the piglet. The owl looks like it might scare the babies though!

Suzanne said...

I should change my profile picture to reflect "bringing up the rear". Or 'The last of the Mohicans!" anyway, those two children are so gorgeous, with such beautiful blonde hair. And you have so much fun with them! Feeding and riding the animals gives them a sense of pride and responsibility-they to take care of the sweet animals. Have a great week!

Grammy Goodwill said...

What fun everyone must have enjoyed that day. I love the animals almost as much as the children.

Southhamsdarling said...

Thank you Grammy . yes the animals were really good, and the little ones had so much fun!
