The Christmas Market in Wiesbaden has a beautiful ice skating ring in front of the gorgeous Kurhaus and Theater that I want to skate on so very badly. Next year! But for now I love watching!
Clayton and I have enjoyed trying some of the new foods they offer. Lebkuchen cookies (taste like gingerbread cookies) and special hot chocolate has been my favorite so far. YUM YUM
Here is a picture of Wiesbaden's Market. Gives you a good idea of how it looks! (Picture not taken by me. got it off of http://blog.autoeurope.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/christmas-market-frankfurt.jpg)
We were in a festive mood this year and decorated for Christmas. Our apartment is on the smaller side, so we decided to go with a small Christmas tree less than 3 feet tall. It is perfect for us! (I went to take a picture of the Christmas tree and half the lights have gone out..... ARG! Picture may come later) Here is a picture of the outside of our apartment all decorated!
Thanksgiving was great this year. A little different celebrating it this year in a country that doesn't celebrate it but we had a good time. Clayton baked a small turkey and I made all the good Southern sides: sweet potato casserole, mashed potatoes, black eye peas, stuffing, homemade biscuits, sweet tea, cranberry sauce, and apple pie. Lots of food!! We were able to have one of Claytons co-workers come over for dinner that didn't have family in the area. There was a ton of food left overs.
Baby Bryan is still doing great! Still "cooking" away! Due date is quickly approaching! 1 month!! The doctor told me to go ahead and pack the hospital bag and install the car seat, so we are all set and ready. Putting the car seat has made it very real! There will be a sweet bundle of joy in that seat extremely soon. EEK!
Here is the most recent picture of our little man. The thing to the left is his knee! He is definitely running out of room but you would never know it from all the moving he is still doing! The doctor last visit called him "spunky" from all of his wiggling, kicking and rolling around he did at the last appointment. I think that is the perfect description for him. Already in so much love with our baby!! Check out those sweet cheeks and lips!! I see the Turners lips already!
Here is our Christmas card photo!! We took it at the park in our neighborhood and just set up the tripod. Super impressed Achilles is looking at the camera and didn't get too excited about the running back and forth. Last Christmas card as a family of 3!
