Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone!

Or: Frohe Weihnachten!

I hope that you all have great Christmas.



This year there were two new things at christmas.

1. The first time ever that there was a thunderstorm at christmas! Awful weather and no signs of white christmas...

2. The first time that Thomas (one of my brothers) and I helped to put up the christmas tree.
Yes, it really was the first time. Putting up the christmas tree was always Mum and Dad's work and we children weren't allowed to see the tree until christmas eve. It was a nice tradition, because sometimes we were more excited to see the christmas tree than seeing our presents - that's good, because I think presents are not that important at christmas.
This year we decided, that we are all old enough to decorate the christmas tree and that it is a bit ridiculous to "hide" the tree...
Like it is common in Austria (and some other European countries) we decorated the tree on 23rd December. We had lot of fun, because we were listening to christmas music and danced around the tree and such things... ;)


Have a nice time and enjoy the last days of 2009!
