We got up and went sight seeing. We walked to the Acropolis and then miraculously got thru all of the crowds of people and got tickets to get right in. It truly felt like a little miracle. Parthenon. The Roman Forum of Athens.
We got some food in the market and then picked up our suitcases and took a taxi to Piraeus, Greece to find our cruise ship!!
Ben and I caught an afternoon flight on Thursday September 7th and headed to Greece! We flew all night and had a layover in Frankfurt Germany.
Then we went on to Athens, Greece! Once we landed there we took a taxi across too our hotel and closer to the cruise port: Hotel Brown Acropol. Lots of travelling by this time. I needed a nap and a shower and Ben needed a Gyro. We got checked in and went across the street for dinner. We walked around the park square and then called it a night.
These 3 boys went to NF the same night we went to Jvke! I THINK THEY HAD FUN!
We Went To Provo Beach for the summer work Party!! Food arcades, Ropes course, bowling and the wave surfing! Thanks SalesRabbit!
Ropes Course
BOWLING
Flo Rider? … we were all newbies but loved it.
Benji has been going to the temple ALMOST every day this last week or more! He loves to find someone to go with him and he makes it happen. Ben did the early morning with him 🙂
Ben is such a good worker and so loyal and he loves people and he treats everyone well and … here is a shoutout that he got at work!
Ben and I have been married for 20 years!! We have the perfect love story. All of our years have been good ones. We have been so blessed and are both moving forward. I love it. I love him. . . I got Flowers and the cutest heart necklace locket 🙂 I bought us matching hoodies. Ben of course wanted to go big but I convinced him that cruises to Greece and trips to Belize were more than sufficient! We had a good day and I took Packer to get his LICENSE! After that Ben and I left for the rest of the day and the kids took Millie to her swim team party!
Ben and I went to the movie! and then to dinner and then to another movie! Double Feature. I can’t remember the last time we did that.
My favorite part of the day was at the theater when I said that the only thing that would make this better is a box of Junior Mints and then BOOM, Ben pulls them out of his pocket! Amazing. 20 years in and we are in sinc – it was extra amazing because it’s not like we always go to the movie and I always get them – It was just the perfect timing, perfect anniversary gift.
We had a fun Monday night at the Scera! Abbie gave us her VIP tickets so we got to go to the pre-dinner and meet and greet! She wasn’t the best entertainer but I like her songs and I like free and I love the Hancocks and I’m in love with Ben so… it was fabulous!
We drove home from Vegas on Saturday! We had such a great week with the kids. Cruise life was good for all of us. We had just the best few days with no chores, no cares no nothing. One of the best vacations ever.
On Sunday – we went to church and took Benji’s mission picture!! and CELEBRATED OUR FATHERS!!!
Ben got a card and gifts from his kids and we went to Matt and Jamie’s for dinner and for time with Grandpa.
Ben loved driving us to California and cruising with his kids. He literally was in heaven all week. Happy Ftahers Day to one of the BEST!
CATALINA ISLAND!!
