Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!

We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and that 2016 brings much happiness! We had a really nice Christmas and New Years Eve. Bryan took the entire week off (which he has never done before) and we did a little bit of traveling, a little bit of visiting, a little bit of celebrating, and a little bit of relaxing - it was a truly enjoyable "vacation". We survived 5 1/2 days of everything being closed (it really wasn't that hard, but such a funny thing) - by the way - we still have one more day to go when all will be closed (that of the 3 Kings on January 6). We spent Christmas day at home and then traveled up to Berlin, over to Poland, and then back to Bamberg for New Years. We are back home now and not really looking forward to getting back into the normal schedule - oh how I love vacation!!! We finally have about 3 inches of fresh snow on the ground though and one last day of vacation - so we'll try to make the best of it ;-)

Merry Christmas everyone!!!
