A Day in Germany

 After Greece we traveled to Germany.  Oma, Papa Dude and Nanny helped with this day. We decorated a Christmas tree since the tradition started there, raced fast cars and looked for as many German cars as we could in our collection, listened to Beethoven, Bach, and Handel.  Oma made use dinner of schnitzel, potato salad, cabbage and egg noodles.  It was all so good.  For dessert I made kaiserschmarrn.  Nanny talked to us during dinner about her ancestors, many of whom came from Germany to Texas.  It was fun listening to her stories.  We finished the night watching Maleficent because many fairytales came from Germany and this was the closest to a fairytale the boys would watch.


Dinner was really, really good!
Thankfully Zadi had given us this little tree that had a few ornaments so I didn't have to get out a bigger tree. 
We have gathered quite the collection of cars.  It was fun finding all the German brands and then racing them.
Seriously so good!
Not the best dessert, but it was eaten!

The funniest part of the night!
