2015-12-12 love to help

I love, love, love wrapping gift’s and helping the Christkind to get ready for Christmas.

The Christkind (German for "Christ-child"), is the traditional Christmas gift-bringer in Switzerland, Austria, Germany, Italy, France, Liechtenstein, many other countries in Europe, and other parts of the world like Hispanic America.

That's such a Mona-picture! Lovely, festive and filled with warm glow light. Your last week or so has been just so festive that it alone creates Christmas mood for me (we have no snow here!) I hope your theater outing yesterday was great.
