Merry Christmas from Luxembourg

Friday, December 26, 2014

We took a 3 day break from our travels to spend time together with our little family, American friends, and Luxembourgish friends. It's no secret that holidays are hard being away from home. This is our 2nd Christmas being away from family. Two of the years while overseas it always worked out that we were home by Christmas. This being our 1st as our little family nothing will stop our joy of being together. Seeing a holiday through a babes eyes is one of a kind. Every light and present makes her absolutely ecstatic. Teaching Brynn from a young age that Jesus is the reason and being thankful for our savior is going to be my favorite thing. I know the holidays will keep on getting better!

 Here in Luxembourg they celebrate for 3 days, the 24th, 25th, and 26th. We had Raclette with one of Brads teammates family Christmas Eve, a traditional Christmas meal with a fellow American couple from a team in Brads leauge Christmas night, and a lunch with friends from Brads club today. We spent our time thankful for our Lord and Savior and his continuous blessings.  It was all absolutely perfect and we couldn't have asked for more!

Here is a little look at our 1st Christmas as a family of 3….


Yep, Brynn had 9 Christmas outfits.


Brynn had an impromptu first meeting with Santa and she was extremely thrilled.

Our Christmas Eve filled with Raclette and play dates. 

Christmas day consisted of presents being eaten opened and indulging in food!


Hope all of you had a glorious Christmas holiday! 
Jesus is the reason for the season.
