Christmas Market in Nurenberg


On Saturday we ventured to Nuremberg to see the Kristkindell market..





It was so pretty. We had a wonderful time with friends... we walked, looked, and tested a lot of the things we love about Germany and Christmas.. There were Gluwein, Candles, ornaments and of course the traditional Christmas food... Crepes filled with Nutella, Candy roasted cashews, pretzels filled with butter and cheese...


There was a Children's section with rides such as Ferris wheel, train, 2 story merry-go-round and of course Santa... Nico was afraid of Santa this year.. must have been the fact he spoke no english.. he says to me but he is Santa.. He knows every language.. How can you argue with that.. lol But even though we had a set back he still enjoyed himself...




I have enclosed the web page for the Christmas Market..
Please feel free to read about the history of this event and look at the pictures

We have moved


So as you all Know we have moved to Germany...

Wow what a crazy ordeal.. We are all unpacked but looking for places to store things as there is not enough storage here...

Bikes, rakes, brooms ... OH MY!

In getting unpacked I found lots of old things I should have got ride of long ago... lol ... but found the boxes of Christmas Decorations... I was so excited to get decorating as you can see from my picture to the right... Lots of our decoration are still boxed up as we would need so many transformers to run all the lights that we would look like the Griswald family!

We decided to buy 220-volt Christmas tree lights and had a blast putting those on the tree! Have you ever heard the funny version of twelve days of Christmas... well that was us...

"Well if your so smart you ring up the lights!"




Here is to a Wonderful and festive family filled Christmas!

The Suarez Clan!
