My siblings...



So, here is the whole lot of us, minus one sister who is on the coast and I rarely see (we weren't raised as sisters, rather as friends, and I actually did not even know she was my sister until I was in my teens... but that is another story).

Left to right, and eldest to youngest, is Rose, Sharon, Rob, Daphne and me.
Aren't we adorable?

Nice picture, Stevie. We're only 3, and we never manage to all look that good at the same time.

you all look great!!..you can see the simularities too..except the one on the far right looks mischievious..;)..

Vallypee said...

What a really lovely picture Stevie! It's lovely to see all the rest of you...lol...but you know what I mean..we are all somehow the sum of our families...maybe I'll post a pic of mine...hey that's a great inspiration Stevie. Maybe we could all do it as far as we are able..

You do have a very mischievous smile, though, gypsy's right!

Stevie,

Nice to see you and the gang. You look a bit like your sister Rose. Maybe I'll follow Val's example and post a picture of mine too. btw - I've met AM's siblings and they all looked awesome at her Fall wedding.

Stevie said...

I would love to see all your families!
Mischievious??
Who me?
Couldn't be...

gypsy noir said...

Yes you!!
I have 3 brothers one a twin and two sisters eldest has a diferent father..ww2 baby..to an american soldier..er hum...
i can def say that i am the odd ball of the family..they are all happily married with good jobs and are all down to earth..
but i wouldn't have it any other way..

Stevie said...

gee, they sound like the oddballs to me!
Good thing you turned out normal...
Have any photos? I love Val's idea!

Lannio said...

I like Val's idea too. Guess you're just gonna have to start tagging peeps.

Stevie said...

okay, I tag Val, Gyspy and Lesley!

Lannio said...

eek, I'll have dig something up - real old or from Fiji. Hehe, once you've been tagged, you have the luxury to tag others. Hummm, wonder who I'll choose

Vallypee said...

Done it, Stevie! It's a black and white, but the onoy recent one I have of all us siblings together. Like Gypsy, I am the sane one...lol...my sister and both my brothers have all been happily married forever, and have all lived in the same places, even same houses - for just as long. Me, I am the family misfit, divorced and a chronic roamer...that's why the barge...I can take my house with me when I want to move now! Thanks for the idea xxx

gypsy noir said...

Yes vals right we are the sane ones...
Stay sane inside insanity!...
my bROs and SI's are so NORMAL!!!...
As a mere noir lamb growing up, i always dreamed of being the noir sheep of the family..
mind you i wouldn't swap them for the world, they are the best..
i'll av a gander to see if i have any of us together but i can't recollect any like that..except for a faded b/w on the beach many-many moons ago..

gypsy noir said...

Even my twin brother, married to the same woman, his only girlfriend, for 100,s of years , both have good jobs, one son, no pets,...I just don't know where he went wrong!!...

Vallypee said...

LOL Gypsy...they can't help it poor souls, they lacked the noir gene and it was downhill all the way!

Vallypee said...

Hey Stevei, looking forward to seeing La Russe and your wonderful son!

Stevie said...

heck, couldn't find the darn recharger... might have to be a Wednesday production!

gypsy noir said...

Wine and waterboys...count me in..yay..we can get drunk and sing along..bang on the ear!!!...

Stevie said...

come on over Gysp, me gal!

ian gordon said...

I have 1 brother, 3 sisters.

It's quite rare we all appear together in the same photograph.

I once pointed this out to them, that there were only about 3 pictures of us together.

I think the latest count is still only about 6. There's usually one of us absent.

Stevie said...

That's ok Ian, we would accept a compilation of pictures!

Stevie said...

Ian darling I cannot comment on your blog! Are we banned?

Vallypee said...

Hmmmph...still waiting for La Russe.....can't wait!!! xxx ;-)

Lannio said...

Answering your tag - check it out on my blog

ian gordon said...

No Stevie, my petal, not banned.

I'm just "off" the whole blogging thing right now. I'm still reading around all "the regulars", but not so bothered about posting my own.

It'll pass.

Stevie said...

Ok, Ian, I can wait...

Chaz said...

Wow cool its great to see you all together like that! You broke my dream actually - I dreamed last night that I had loads of brothers and sisters lol but I am an only child, bit boring really, although I have a half brother I hardly know and I never see him.

I often think it would be nice to have some more kids, so Harvey doesn't get bored or lonesome :)

Lannio said...

Chaz, I'll send you some Fertility drugs to make sure Harvey has many of 'em. Hope you guys are doing well!

Stevie said...

Hey Chantal
You did an awfully nice job on making Harvey, so I am all for you making a few more!
