So the atmosphere, the stalls of toys, decorations, jewelry etc., and the little rides are all really fun, but we really go to the Christmas markets for the food! It's so much fun. We walk around getting one or two of all kinds of things to try and then share them. We had bratwurst, chocolate covered strawberries, crepes, waffles, dampfnoodeln - my favorite - and the best pork kabob I have ever had in my entire life. We started with one and then had to sent Tyler back to fight the mob outside the stall for another they were so good. And did I mention the chocolate museum? Worlds best cup of hot chocolate hands down!
Having this picture on my blog is the only excuse I have to look at it...so it's here to stay.
Overheard at Our House
Yesterday as Tyler was having his Father/Son interview with Briggs they got talking about signs of the last days and Second Coming. Tyler told Briggs that there would be a lot of natural disasters such as tornadoes, earthquakes, and tidal waves. Briggs said, "Oh yeah! I know! And like losing a coin or Playstation and busted controllers!"
Tyler recently spent 5 hours in the emergency room with Porter after a particularly bad attack of an asthma like condition he has. Driving home at the end of the 5 hours Porter turned to Tyler and said, "Dad, I appreciate your obedience. You were very good and very brave."
A Recent Dinner Conversation:
Porter: (As Mom shoes a fly away from his head) This fly is my buddy Mom!
Mom: Well did you know that your buddy has poo-poo feet?
Porter: (Choked out between sobs and a torrent of tears.) Don't call my buddy a name! Why did you say that about my buddy Mom? He doesn't have poo-poo on his feet!
Nothing I could say made it better. He only cried more until I just apologized for the poo-poo name calling incident.

Chocolate museum? I might have to come visit just to hear more about it!
Oh, I miss Christmas Markets! I hope we can join you next year. How much longer will you be in Germany?
