The End of August

during our last few days in medina, we spent some time in the fun, and artemis finally figured out that the splash park was a pretty cool place.


i celebrated my 30th bday with my family and a couple of old friends.
artemis helped me light a kick butt fire.
papou and artemis preformed their evening ritual of trying to not overfeed the fish.
we spent a lot of time in airports on the flight home, and i spent a lot of time at the service desk. . . Fun!
artemis figured out how the head phones worked.
made it back in time for the august heat.
both eleftheria and i were feeling like we had not had our due time at the beach so we have begun to try to catch up.
we went to a huge "fair" her they are called panagiri, and they celebrate a saint/church. it was massive and artemis road on her first "roller coaster". by herself no less.

more beach.
she has grown so much, but i am constantly reminded of how small she still is, such a long and wonderful way to go.

the fam. all is well.

Happy Birthday Eleftheria!!!
Wow, I can't believe the last month of summer is behind us. It is nice to see a summery post and THE BEACH! Enjoy every beach moment and more for me. My toes long for the sand and my skin the salt water. So happy to see your great pictures!
