We just made a few gingerbread cookies, since we knew Oma would be making lots of cookies...
And one gingerbread house
And we got enough snow for a little sledding up in the mountains....
and for one of Mama and Papa's favorite traditions: singing carols around a candlit Christmas tree in the snow (aka freezing our bums and Papas fingers off while Papa tries to get all the candles lit at once -- no easy task with even the smallest bit of wind -- singing a couple of songs, and then hightailing it back to the car to warm up again).
