A great weekend continues

We took Young to a local Christmas bazaar to kick off the holiday season. It was great fun explaining to her all the American traditions of the Christmas season - stockings (why do we hang socks? I'm mean really???) wreaths, gingerbread houses (no, you don't eat it, just decorate it) and poinsettias (who's idea was to put poisonous plants in the house?).





ahhhh...the smell of real Christmas trees! Miss that smell!

Then it was back to the house for tree decorating, making a gingerbread house and having a fabulous steak dinner.











Living abroad has taught us so many things, but the biggest is the importance of people. Having good people in our lives makes all the difference and we are so, so lucky to have met such amazing friends during this journey. We love you Young and you will always be a part of our family, no matter the miles. ❤️
