Greece Part 2

Look! I found a photo of ME! The skirt - the monasteries require women to wear skirts, so they rent them, for a small fee of a few euro.

Anna and Brian seeing the sights

About the time we were ready to head out of town - the sun came out!

Off to Delphi. You can read all about the town of Delphi, the oracle, and the temple of Apollo riiight HERE

Our hotel

The oracle

Christmas and whatnot.

My first born

I got this Dad

Let me show you how to do it

It has a dishwasher

...and the snow begins. (this is what we had leftover from the snow while we were in the states - plus 2 days of melting)

I have style...I have grace

seriously..stop laughing mom

Opening Oma's advent calendar gift of the day: Bubbles!

I use everything as a phone these days

Cookies from Erika (Ohhhhh sooooo gooooooood)

someone decided she wants a pacifier

soo...she found the top to one of her sippy cups

She's already figured out the part that makes noise. Of course.

Making dinner...like Mommy

snow day

We have just over a foot of snow on the ground here. We're expected more tomorrow and on New Years Day - with cloudy and cold days ahead it doesn't look like our snow is going anywhere for awhile. :D

NO MORE SNOW I WANT TO TAKE A NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP

Greece was ok. It wasn't our best vacation. We rode in the car ...a LOT. Not so much fun for an eleven month old. We had one really nice day...and I have no pictures of myself b/c my dear sweet husband never takes any of me.

Can you find our sweet baby girl?

Our first full day was spent in Meteora, which you can read all about HERE . I love Wikipedia. I had never heard of Meteora and had no desire to go there, but it was very interesting, beautiful and well worth the visit.

Eat your heart out Pottery Barn, wagon wheels for everybody! (Really it's just what they stored their wine in. Yes, just like Germany the monks are known for their beer and wine.
