Well I am just about as excited as a honey bee buzzing 'round a cherry tree in full bloom! (I really have to work on my adorable Southern similes before moving to Nashville. But I'm not going to get better without throwing some gutter balls, so the intro sentence stays.)
Anyhoo, today we finalized plans to spend three nights in a resort outside of Athens, Greece, and I could not be happier. Grandpa Grissom is coming for a final Euro-adventure while his oldest still lives here, and we've decided to spend part of that time sea-side. Also, I don't mean to brag, but bragging is a little appropriate in this instance: you see, in fourth grade, I was the president of Athens during our Ancient Greece section. It was far and away the most prestigious presidency to have. I mean, Corinth? C'mon. So, a trip to my former land is long overdue. Between beaches, Greek food, golf for the guys and flea markets for me and my unwitting baby sidekick, not to mention a "family room" which entails two separate bedrooms thereby enabling Will and I to have a light or two on past Edie's bed time, we are ready to go. May 31, see you soon.
Rakel, I'm so happy for you. This is quite a whirlwind spring for you. Will Sally be coming or is it just grandpa?? I'd forgotten your Ancient Greece fourth grade status.
