This truly is the
MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR!
My best Christmas memories are from the 4 years we lived in Germany 10 years ago. Germany just knows how to make Christmas magic happen. When we found out we were moving here again I was SO excited! German Christmas markets are amazing.
Our first Christmas market of the season was Trier, Germany which was my favorite when we lived here before. I LOVE TRIER. It's the oldest city in Germany & the city Taya was born in. The Weihnachtsmarkt was MAGICAL.
There are SO many twinkle lights. It's just beautiful.
And at most Christmas markets there is a large Weihnactspyramid which is a 3 layer depiction of the nativity scene.
The kids LOVE crepes. Our favorites include:
kinderchocolate,
nutella/banana,
& cinnamon applesauce.
At the Trier market there were probably 120 little houses with food, flowers, candy, cheese, & crafts/goods to sell. Each one is different & unique. It's a really fun shopping experience.
The kids especially love the candy booths. Taya got some cotton candy, Lo got a chocolate pig (chocolate covered apple), & Cadence got chocolate covered strawberries.
And I got my favorite Christmastime food . . . Reibkuchen (potato pancakes) with applesauce.
It was a great way to start the Christmas season.
Frohe Weihnachten!
