Christmas 2008

We are always really busy at this time of year, and of course this Christmastime was no different. We all had a wonderful time. I hosted a raclette party, had a few friends over here and there, baked a ton of cookies, cakes, candies and lots of other fattening items. We had Oma over for Christmas Eve dinner, and then spent the 25 and 26th at her house visiting with the whole family. Collin and Savannah participated in a church Christmas concert, singing, reciting verses and playing the piano and the bells, while Heinz and I sang "Stille Nacht" with our small ensemble, and I played in a trio with my flute. After Christmas was no less busy, and we were blessed that Heinz had a couple of weeks off to spend with the family. We managed to find many things to do together, and at the very end of the vacation, we got several inches of snow!! Will post more pictures from our snowy adventures later, but meanwhile, here is a link to our Christmas pictures.
