Surprising our Family with our Baby Announcement & Gender Reveal | Holidays 2017

Surprising our Family with our Baby Announcement & Gender Reveal | Holidays 2017

While we were home from Germany over the holidays we surprised our family on Christmas morning with our baby announcement. Here is a little compilation video of their reactions! We also did a ‘gender reveal’ party on New Years Eve… which in the end.. was wrong! (The cake said boy, but we found out later we are having a GIRL!)

The Romantischer Weihnachtsmarkt (Romantic Christmas Market) in Regensburg, Germany

The Romantischer Weihnachtsmarkt (Romantic Christmas Market) in Regensburg, Germany

Wanting to explore Christmas markets outside of our hometown & very popular Nuremberg Christkindlesmarkt, we drove 1 hour to Regensburg and their Romantischer Weihnachtsmarkt. The pine-roofed stalls with homemade gifts were wrapped around the palace as well as inside the courtyard. With all of the quaint Christmas charm & open fires to stay warm, this became our favorite Christmas market.
