3 Month Mark (Almost)

I can't believe that I've been living here in Athens for close to 3 months already. I can't say time is flying, but it sure is going faster than I thought it would! Other than language differences (though we're very lucky most people speak English here!), the absence of some favorite foods/ingredients at grocery stores, and learning how to fill my time; it has been a fun and exciting change of pace. It's been great being able to watch Mike play, do all the normal day-to-day activities together, and hang out with other wives and their families. It's always nice to have others around you that are, or have already, gone through the same difficulties that you are.

One exciting thing was that we were able to do was see Cirque del Soleil a few weeks ago, which was more amazing of a show than I thought it would be. The way they fly and flip through the air, along with the acrobatics and costumes, certainly made for quite the show.



I don't have much to write about, but just wanted to update our family and friends! I can say that with Thanksgiving coming up it definitely won't be the same, especially since they don't celebrate here. I mean, lets be honest, we just want an excuse to eat a lot of good home-cooked food! Sadly Mike will be traveling for a game in Spain, but all of the wives have unanimously decided we will celebrate anyways!

That's all for now but, I will leave you with an iphone photo dump :)
