Athens Night

We started our journey around the world... ABC style. First stop: Athens, Greece. We had dinner in the Parthenon. Grilled lamb kabobs. We listened to Greek music and wore togas. Marissa made the Greek flag (hanging in the background) and Garett wrote out "Happy Father's Day" in Greek.

Wal-Mart

Garett came and sat on my lap and told Marissa that I was his because he bought me.

He said he got me from Wal-Mart.

For a discount.
