Christmas Recap

Christmas Eve was spent out at Raimund's family farm.  It was the first time I ever tried tartare, and I'm not sure if I'll ever want to eat it again.  Something about raw beef creeps me out...

Raimund's family is German, which means they have slightly different traditions from what I'm use to.  For example they bring in their Christmas tree, set it up, and decorate it that night.  Also, copious amounts of booze are consumed.  I'm not much of a drinker, so I just stayed back and vegged out.

As well, one of their farm dogs had puppies, so I was cuddling the hell out of them.








The last photo was from Christmas Day at my Grandparent's house.  I didn't take many photos that day, I was too busy enjoying myself.  Ben made a haul of goodies.  You see that power drill he's holding?  He likes to put it up to my knee and pretend he's tickling me.  That's my boy!

Ciao bellas,

Eewww I've heard of tartare but I had no idea that's what it is!! Barf! On a lighter note those pups are so darn cute, how did you not sneak one home in your purse?!

what an awesome Christmas! I think it would be fun to try something totally new like that and visit a friend with different traditions!
Ben is so cute with that drill. Looks like he means buisness!
Happy New Year girl!

I would love to try something different for the holidays, even if it includes raw beef. :\ Glad you had fun, though.. and that puppy is SO adorable!
