How often can you meet Nikolaus!

After our return from Tahoe everything went into Christmas mode. We decorated the house and got a Christmas tree. The snow is long behind us and it is warm and rainy again. Snow would be nice if it would not mean that we miss school. We had a Nikolaus celebration at Church with Andrew dressing up as St. Nikolaus. The the actual Nikolaus (oh yes, we are believing) came to German School to attend our annual Nikolausfeier. He brought his golden book and read some of the kids names and praised them; Amelia was one of them. She heart her name called and asked me later if that meant that she was on the good or naughty list.
A week later it was time for St. Lucia. Again both girls were in the procession as attendants. Marlene can not wait until it will be her turn to be Lucia!
