    Hello everybody! Look at this nice picture. Here


    is one of the moments I prefer when we are all
    together on a nice Sunday afternoon! But let me
    introduce myself! I am Bob. I am standing in
    front of my father who is reading the newspaper.
    My mother is listening to her favourite songs on
    the radio. My two sisters Rose and Sally are
    playing with their dolls. My grandfather is
    having a nap of course and my grandmother is
    drinking a cup of tea. Penny, our cat, is running
    after the birds as usual and only our cousins are
    doing chores! Ken´s watering Mom´s plants and
    Mike is cleaning the windows. Can you imagine
    that on a Sunday afternoon?
