December!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...Yesterday we went to the German Winter market on Lake Mohawk.  It was fun to look at the handmade Christmasy stuff.  We ate some saurbraten with spaetzel and Livy had some good ol' fashioned mac and cheese.

Today we went to pick out our Christmas tree. Livy thought it was great fun to run and hide behind a tree and then pop out at us.  Apparently no one told her that choosing a Christmas tree is supposed to be grueling and painful for everyone involved.  In other words, we did not go chop down our own tree like we did when I was a kid.  It was almost too easy, inside a greenhouse and everything.   Grandma and Grandpa met us there and picked out their tree too.  We have ours set up but it's not decorated yet, so we'll have to post pics of it later.
