...Christmas celebration, that is. We had fun celebrating Christmas for nearly-12 days this year!! We needed one more day together to finish our Advent candles, eat pancakes, and open the presents sent from the extended Gieser family. Thank you to Granddad and Nonna for making it such a special time! Nonna did an incredible job sending beautiful, wrapped presents, and thoughtfully thinking through what each of us would enjoy.

| We carry on Nonna's touch by having an ornament or small present at one's breakfast plate. |
I really enjoyed having the Advent wreath this year (often in the past we have had only the candles with no wreath). After we lit the center Christ candle we sang - and clapped - 'Joy to the World'.
Mattias was in
love with this singing reindeer from Nonna, and kept it playing on repeat for two days.
Here Timo was opening some new Thomas the Train engines from G/N, and Mattias was exclaiming about... something... in any case, you get the idea about how expressive he is getting!
