Family and My Home with #Weekend #Linky

Welcome to my weekend blog hop - Make My Saturday Sweet #88! It's my grandmother's birthday today! We got to celebrate it with her last year. She lives in the States and we live in South Africa. The Inside of My Home If our house sells, then we will be moving to the States and closer to relatives on my side.

Our Cat and More with #WW Linky

Welcome to my Picture Perfect Party Linky #95! Meet Prince, Samantha's handsome cat. She picked him out from the SPCA when he was kitten. There were lots of kittens to choose from, but she got the best one. That's our opinion anyway. You can see the post of Prince's adoption here, if you missed it. She first named him, Tabitha, because we were told it was a female. However, once he was a few months older, it was plain that he was a male. Next week I'll share photos of Amanda playing outside with both our cats. By the way, it's winter-time...
