I received a package in the mail a couple of days ago from my " German parents". I didn't open it because I wanted to save it for Christmas day. In a phone call from Christina yesterday, she told me to open it now because it " was Christmas". When I opened it, it was the most beautiful Christmas table cloth that I have ever seen!!! And it's BLUE!!! Christina's best friend in Germany had given it to her and she had never used it. She doesn't have any blue in her house. It is just perfect for our house!!! I love it so much!!! The pictures don't do it justice. There are Christmas trees cut work in all four corners....in gold thread. Four bows came with. I'm guessing they are for the chairs. Well, that's where I put them and love them. I have so many wonderful Christmas memories of having "German Christmas" with the Blombergs. I was so lucky that Marina and I became best friends in fourth grade. It gave me a chance to grow up German. A beautiful place on earth with wonderful, warm hearted people, with fantastic traditions. I can't imagine my life without all my memories that Christina and George have given me. I love them so much!
