Christmas Day






On Christmas morning, we put together Anna's new UFO learn-to-walk toy that she received from Great grandma and Great grandpa (Heinz and Inge). After that we feasted on goose and played Canasta all afternoon. We were supposed to visit Anna' cousins in Herne, but they were not feeling good and mama didn't want to expose Anna to the 'germs.' Later that evening we had coffee, stollen (German fruitcake), clementines, cookies, chocolate, and peanuts. Steffi and I need another diet. Later on we called Jeff's familiy in Colorado and watched a movie together.

We had a bit of excitement before going to bed. One of Christa's candles almost burned the house down at about 11:30pm, but Steffi saw and heard the fire before it could get out of control and doused it with water. Was messy and a bit stinky, but no major damage was incurred.
