Christmas in Vienna is truly special.
This year Nathanael's class put on an incredible skit teaching us about Christmas around the world. Nathanael had parts in the Austrian, American, and Turkish celebrations.
Our Liesing Stream remains a highlight of living where we do, year-round.
We had a special intimate family gift exchange a few days early.
One of my favorite experiences this year for Christmas was attending a performance of the nativity story put on by a performer who incorporated art, music, drama, and many elements of technology. He told it in a Biblically accurate and culturally relevant way which was full of humour and emotion for the entire family. Gregory and I loved it. At the end, he invited the kids to come up and whisper their Christmas wishes to the baby Jesus in a manger. It might sound cheesy, but it was done incredibly well, emphasizing how Jesus, God with us, cares intimately about us.
