Honeymoon

Well, it is officially FALL!  I celebrated last night by drinking a pumpkin beer and making chili tortellini…a pinterest recipe.  It was delish!  I’ve had our house decorated for halloween since last weekend…ha! 

We ended our summer on a high with our honeymoon trip to Greece.  It was AMAZING and I highly suggest everyone adding it to their bucket list.

We started out in Athens for two nights.  We took a tour of the Acropolis Museum and the actual Acropolis, as well as the first Olympic stadium.  We walked, walked, and walked some more all around the city.  Our hotel had a rooftop bar that had a perfect view of the Acropolis where we enjoyed drinks in the afternoon and breakfast each morning.

We then flew to the island of Mykonos.  We rented a four wheeler for two days to explore all of the different beaches on the island which was really fun!  We loved the downtown, and Jimmy’s favorite beach was Paradise…the party beach!  The DJ would start around 4:30 each afternoon, and needless to say it was definitely something to see.

Next, we took a ferry to Santorini.  Our favorite stop of the trip!  We rented a four wheeler here as well for two of the days, visited a lot of wineries, got fish pedis, massages on the beach, took a catamaran tour, and relaxed!

It was perfection!  Posting this makes me REALLY want to be back there RIGHT NOW!  And, after being back for two weeks I think I finally might want to eat feta cheese again!  I was feta-ed out…which I never thought would happen.  But boy was it good!

Jimmy had to go back to work the day after we got back…bummer!  I have enjoyed two relaxing weekends of football and attempting to tackle some long overdue house projects.

Football season has started off perfectly…my dad’s team is 4-0 and Clemson is undefeated as well.  Fingers crossed this weekend will turn out the same…
