There's just no stopping him

As soon as he has a moment, William grabs a broom and starts cleaning!

Saturday morning on the island of Milos

Ever the little helper

Will loves unpacking groceries and putting them in the fridge, sweeping the floor, carrying bags, emptying the dishwasher, hanging paintings, putting things away on shelves and closing cupboards. I'm enjoying it while it lasts ;-)

last day of the first week of school

 Who loves their big sister???

 All smiles!

Bye bye summer hols - back to school!

Finally the summer is coming to and end, or rather, school is starting! Tomorrow is orientation day; a chance for the children and Mums to meet teachers, visit class-rooms and see classmates old and new. I am looking forward to it! 

It's not really the end of summer here yet; we are still enjoying sunny and warm weather here day after day but I am sure we will get in the "autumn-back-to-school-mood" soon enough. 

The past two weeks here in Greece we have kept busy;

visiting the wonderful Attiko Parko (zoo)

where we saw a family of hippos keeping cool in their mud pool

 

and amazing feathers and coats

We also liked dressing up and dancing

 polishing up our looks

going for short walks

jumping on our new trampoline

 visiting friends...

 having lunch in outdoor malls

 painting plaster figures

 being brave at the park

 making play-dough cookies while Mum and Dad lazed in front of the telly for once

 climbing olive trees...

and lots more!

Anyway, goodbye summer, we are happy to have enjoyed you but we are welcoming school back with a smile.
