Where is my Bavarian Winter Wonderland?

Everybody but us seems to get snow this year - even Cologne and the north of Germany had more than we did. After many cold and sunny days (I am not complaining...) we got rain today! Yuck! They did promise us snow. Hmm. 

This weekend we are invited to Johanna's friend Pippa's house concert. She is learning to play the Cello and the music school organized private concerts at peoples private homes. We are also expecting St. Nicholas to show up in person because Saturday is the 6th of December. Perfect timing. I had to write up little comments on how the kids behaved this year. It is funny as Pippa's Mom read some to me as examples I could have applied most to my kids also. Everyone has the same little "issues".
