Happy German Advent! And American Advent, of course. We opened our big package from Germany yesterday and had a great time indulging in the treats, as well as setting up our new Christmas addition- our Advent Wreath. Obviously it doesn't look like what we would consider a wreath, and I'm sure Chuck's Mom could shed more light on the topic, but here it is:
Today since it's the first Sunday of December, we lit our first candle:
Chuck is especially excited because he has been wanting one of these. As a kid growing up in Germany, this Advent Wreath was always a big deal. And now it will be again!
I also got to open my American Advent Day 2 gift today. So far, Chuck is 2 for 2. I adore my new phone cover! Plus he got me screen protectors, which I really needed. It's so cute that he picked out a cover for me. It's only day 2, but this has already meant so much to me. "Gifts" are my love language, and I am just bouncing around with excitement about my gifts, and about how much my Love loves me.
