Christmas celebrations began this past Friday afternoon in Liel, Germany, when several girls and I visited a local neighbor that sells Christmas trees. A few hours later, the tree was up, the living room was decorated, and Rascal Flatts' "I'll be home for Christmas" was playing on the radio. It was a sweet tradition to share with the girls. Christmas is extraordinarily meaningful for us as there is so much that we are anticipating over the next month. We will celebrate Christ's birth in four weeks, we will be home in three weeks, and the fall semester ends in two weeks. GLORY!
I wanted to share a few photos with you this afternoon from the high school Christmas Banquet that took place Saturday night, November 26, as well as our Dorm Thanksgiving celebrated on Thursday, November 17. It has been such a joy to share these special occasions with my Liel family.
The classy tree!
My Girls--aren't they beautiful?

After just a few hours of hair and make-up preparations, they're ready for banquet!
