Frankfurt Christmas Market

Woohoo another Christmas Market Blog!! And on our 1st day of snow...we had snow one night that was melted in a matter of like 2 hours. But this was the first snow to come and stick around during the day...I hope it just stays cold...but don't wanna get my hopes up too high!!

Sunday we went to Frankfurt as soon as it opened to avoid the crowds. It was still pretty busy since it was a weekend, but we were able to easily navigate with a stroller, and had a great time enjoying the warmer day!

I kinda wanted to buy all the balls and hang them all over my house they were so pretty!!

CHEESE!!!!

mmmmmm best food at the markets I want this everyday!!

Fried Brie and Cranberry sauce it was amazing Kyra even wanted it!!

Idstein Christmas Market

So although we had this grand list of Christmas Markets we just had to visit this year, as the days come we are realizing that both the HUGE markets, and the ones further away are just not as intriguing. I think it has to do with our long trip that didn't end awesome to Edelweiss it really wore us as a family out.

So we are sticking closer to home. But this has turned out as a wonderful thing because we went to this market in Idstein on a whim and I am sooooo very glad that we did!!! It is totally in my top 3 or 4 Markets we have ever been to!! It did have points where it was crowded but, that is probably because it is only open one weekend a  year.

It was small town feel, cheaper prices on food and drinks, and just BEAUTIFUL with all the Timber buildings!!! Unfortunately we are still taking pictures with the point and shoot so the pictures don't entirely do it justice. A lot because I am not used to a camera so small and my big gloved hands end up covering the flash at night so everything is all out of focus and such.

Idstein is known for that tower, it is their Witching tower and the oldest building in town.

Kyra making sure Monkey stays warm on her adventure!!

Being known for their Witching tower, they have cute witch themed things around town!!

Beautiful lit streets

Adorable stands with things that were different than all the other markets!!

Limburg Christmas Market

Hey guys!!! I am back for yet another Christmas Market Blog. I know they probably aren't the most exciting things. But they are so pretty and full of the spirit, and I know in the future I will love to go back and look at these blogs and remember all the fun.

This market was in a town just up the river about 40 mins from home in the town of Limburg. I believe I did a blog a ways back about this town when we went to visit before. Kyra was really small at the time, and we walked all over town trying to find their big church they are known for and just couldn't find it. Turns out there is only 1 road and 1 set of stairs that lead to it, which explains why we had such a hard time.

But this trip with Erica and Jennifer I got to see it. I think it is really pretty and so different too, it is just so colorful looking.

I am madly in love with any little town that has the timber homes!!!

Crazy looking guardians of bakery!
