Morris Family Outing

Jul 18

I’m blessed to be able to do what I do, therefore it does not feel like work. However work is not all, family has precedence.

I woke up this morning early with my family to go and climb the “Hooiberg”. This was a request that I’ve had for some time already and I’ve promised the kids that during the summer vacation I would take them. Here are a few of the images of our retreat.

A self family portrait, easy. Just put the camera on timer and go for it a few times until you get it.

Abishah

Jun 11

The latest addition to the Morris’ family is a girl. She’s 6 weeks old and an American Pitbull Terrier or should I say Aruban Pitbull Terrier. Her name is Abishah, pronounced “a bee sha” A sweet dog that has adapted to the family very quick. A dog spoiled by all.

This was really a task trying to get these shots of her, she’s so attached as soon as I take to steps away she runs and stand next to me making it difficult to almost impossible to get the shot.

This is the one of the few times that she stayed in place for me for a very short period.

This is her being a good girl but I have to be real quick.

This is a selfportrait of us. She didn’t want to leave my side and she cuddled up against me in the grass so I took the camera and shot back at us. Do you see my jeans in the background?

This is actually an awesome shot by Shayenne who doesn’t feel photography. She’ll do quite good if she tell herself she can do it.

This is long overdue, I’ve actually taken these a few months ago. I was debating if I should put them online or not. I’ve decided to bite the bullet.  I present to you Shaydee……..

Happy Mother’s Day

May 10

I would like to wish all mothers, expecting mothers, aspiring mothers or inspiring mothers a very Happy Mother’s Day. May you be spoilt beyond your imagination today and may the fruit of your womb raise up to call you blessed.

On today this mother’s day I will like to give tribute to 2 special people, one who’s no longer here, my mom and my wonderful wife.

I’ll start out by honouring my mom with this poem.

God’s Helpers

God could not be in every place
With loving hands to help erase
The teardrops from each baby’s face,
And so He thought of mother.

He could not send us here alone
And leave us to a fate unknown;
Without providing for His own,
The outstretched arms of mother.

God could not watch us night and day
And kneel beside our crib to pray,
Or kiss our little aches away;
And so He sent us mother.

And when our childhood days began,
He simply could not take command.
That’s why He placed our tiny hand
Securely into mother’s.

The days of youth slipped quickly by,
Life’s sun rose higher in the sky.
Full grown were we, yet ever nigh
To love us still, was mother.

And when life’s span of years shall end,
I know that God will gladly send,
To welcome home her child again,
That ever-faithful mother.

To the Queen Bee in my life, my wife…..

Mother's Day Aruba 2009

 

Hand in hand we walk together,
God’s grace warms us from above.
It’s him I thank each day I wake
for blessing me with all your love.
The sunshine in my morning
and the bird that sings my song.
In this life when I am troubled through God it’s you who keeps me strong.
The wind beneath my wings
as this eagle takes to flight.
You are the stars that brighten up my sky in the darkness of the night.
The mother of my children and the air that gives me life.
My truest friend of all…
my heart, my soul, my wife.

Blessings,

Camp Fire!

May 06

We are always trying to come up with creative ideas to enjoy QT (Quality Time).
This was a spontaneous decision some time back to have a camp fire in the backyard.

Happy Birthday Naeem

Nov 03

It seemed as it was just a few months ago that these kids were born. It shows that I’m really getting up there faster than I feel it. That fact remains though that I’m moving up there.

On October 29th was Naeem’s birthday. They all have a mind of their own and he wanted to celebrate with just a few family members and some friends bowling. They’ve had a great time, after bowling we took them to Pizza Hut for some Pizza and refreshments.

This is the birthday boy!

Danielle sticking to her A game. 

Mikayla palying the way she knows best. 

Is Ishaq playing the camera or bowling?

Ricky is really concentrating on his game.

 Jeandry making sure he has right form.

The power is in the tongue for Alexander. 

Naeem getting it done. 

Krisje going for the strike this round. 

 This is the entire group with some pretty goofy looks.

Ishaq looks all sophisticated in his waterpolo gear in the pool on the day of Shaydee’s pool party. I just had to get a shot of him.

Doesn’t he look cute?

Shaydee Celebrated Her Birthday

Sep 22

It was exactly 1 week after her birthday that it was celebrated in a grand way as she had requested. She wanted a Hawaiian pool party, which she got around the pool of the Caribbean Palm Village.

Many friends but mostly family joined in on the fun in the pool.

This is the party table decorated by the “interior” decorator Shayenne.

 This is a close up on the Flip Flop Cake.

This is how you feel when you get out of the pool after being there for the entire day. Shaydee feeling cold.

Happy Birthday Shaydee

Sep 14

Today is Shaydee’s 8th Birthday.

It is a custom here that on the kids birthday they get their own cake. As soon as the birthday boy or girl rise, which is ussually before the sun, we all gather and sing happy birthday around the cake. The birthday boy or girl would then do the honors in biting off a piece of the cake.

Here is Shaydee taking part in tradition.

May God richly bless, keep and protect you and many happy returns.

She would not have a birthday party today but it was postponed for a week as Shayenne would then have a couple days at home and then we can prepare something in the right way for her.

Blessings,

Bryan Morris
