It's been a little while since the last post. Things have been busier then ever. We are preparing for the Christmas season and our VACATION! Can you tell I am excited? We are off to Grindelwald, Switzerland for a week of skiing in the Alps. If they make boots small enough we are even planning on putting Landon on skis! And speaking of the little fellow...more great news! He is over is egg allergy! What a blessing! We are down to just peanuts. While peanuts are very scary to me, it is such a huge relief to be down to only one allergy. It has been so much fun to watch him fall in love with chocolate and eat his very first pancake (ok, he really just licked the syrup and got pretty sticky!) He is turning into such a little boy. His babyness is going away. He is talking a little more and we found a new kindergarten. He will start mid-January. I really like this place and it will fit my schedule well with my german lessons. I just hope I am not disappointed again. He seemed to feel right at home when we checked it out. I think he will be happy to make new friends.
Alianna as always is flourishing here! She told me the other day she is German. Not like a German, but acutally German. And I and all of you as well, are no longer allowed to call her Ali. Her name is Alianna! Got that mom! she said. Let's hope Santa get's it right. I don't know who will get the presents with only Ali written on them!
This weekend is the much anticipated Weinachts markt at the castle. We are holding a small open house on Sunday for friends to stop by for some gluhwien and cookies while they check out the markt. I'll have to post some pictures.
Larry is very busy at work. While I hate that he works late every night and we are on our own for dinner, I am thankful he still has a job to keep him busy! We will be very happy to spend time with him on VACATION! I think I mentioned that already! We are going on VACATION! A vacation that I don't have to pack an entire kitchen with me. While I still have to be very careful with Landon, we are actually going to be able to eat at a restaurant with him!
Enjoy the holiday season, relax a little and remember we are really celebrating Jesus' birthday! Even though times are tough we still have so much to be thankful for! Being away from home always reminds you of all the important things in life and all of the blessing we have... family, friends, a warm home, food on our table...
Have a very Merry Christmas!
