At age 23 you moved to Vienna, from England, shortly after you met your now husband könig. He was quiet and shy. But after years together you were more than comfortable.

Having a little girl named Vera. She was bilingual learning both English and German. She looked like the perfect mix or her parents.

It was Christmas. The most perfect, beautiful time of year. Vienna was always nice and cold, meaning the three of you had to wear cute little gloves and scarves.

You started decorating late November, so the house looked like a winter wonderland and smelt like pure Christmas. It was amazing.

Your little girl, was three and so exited, she could barely get to sleep. König and you spent the night setting out presents. Admittedly you had spoiled her this year.

You were also Mixing both Austrian and English Christmas traditions. It was a cute way of mixing your own family and cultural traditions into the season.
