I lived overseas in Oberarnbach, Germany with my family when I was younger. My dad is a German-born Serbian, so he couldn’t have been a better ‘tour guide’ during his time in the Air Force that we spent in Europe. Yesterday was St. Nicholas Day (a day when we would put our shoes out overnight and hope to find goodies in them in the morning!), so I couldn’t help but me reminded of all of the fun we had in Germany! I’m so grateful that I was just old enough to have so many fond memories of our time there, the beautiful sites, the cultural immersion. And I’m so fortunate to have had the opportunity to experience so much of the world as an Air Force brat. It snowed so much every year that my dad would pull me on a sled around the neighborhood and town, he would build me igloos (wish I could find a picture of this!!), and I, of course, would make snow angels. I live in Texas now, so not quite the same sites or winter snow, but those memories that I hold onto are what encourage and drive me to want to provide just as equally memorable times for my own family. Max needs to experience igloos and snow angels, so we need to go to the snow! I asked my dad to dig up a few photos for me so I could share them with you. The first is from 1989, and the rest from 1991. Enjoy.
