Please forgive me for not posting in a while. I am going to try to be better this year about keeping everyone up to date with what is going on with us. Christmas wasn't quite the same this year, but it never is when you are first starting out I guess. The important thing was that we were together! Our collection of decorations is slowly growing. We received our first nativity set from Mama K that we absolutely love. Willow Tree is AWESOME. We also added a german touch to our tree with the little straw ornaments that we got from a local grocery store. Also, Will and I decided that hot chocolate is a must on Christmas Eve, hence our first Christmas tradition. Since it was just the two of us we took a trip up to Nurnberg by train and checked out the Christmas market where they have tons of neat things to eat, drink, and buy. We met a few new friends and walked around for a bit and had a cup of Gluwein, which is one of my new favorites by the way. It is a warm wine that the germans drink in a coffee mug around the holidays. Can you say yummy?
Anyway we topped off the day by opening presents that night and getting up just in time Christmas morning to watch the parade on t.v. This is when we decided our next tradition would be to have pancakes. It was a Great day! We hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas!
