      Kirsten, Red Lipstick looks fabulous on you it brings out your brown eyes and goes so well with your hair and complexion. You are a natural beauty and you look lovely no matter what you do. Joerge is a very lucky man to have such a beaautiful wife. You always dress modestly, and appropriately. The dress you are wearing is stunnning in its classic simplicity and style. Thank you for sharing your traditional German Christmas home decorations, especially the Christmas trees. ❤. I enjoyed the entire video, the Country Cottage and your discovery of the hansel and Gretel’s cottage looked like it stepped out of. a Fairytale., i hope you return and explore it someday. Wishing you a Merry Christmas , Blessed time with your loved ones in Germany. Happy Trails and a safe return.🌲🌲🎀🌲🌲

    I love how you never entirely change your Christmas tree decorations, only add a few more. Because all these beautiful ornaments are full of lovely memories and should be enjoyed and cherished for years to come. ❤And you're dinning room looks spectacular, as if it came right from the pages of House & Garden. Truly stunning. 😊

The German decorations are so charming and well made. Your dining room is beautiful and I love your dining table and chairs.

    Oh, you darlings… Thank you for this beautiful, touching, authentic, and just nostalgic Christmas video! I just loved it and I’m going to show it to my husband as well! It could not have been sweeter! Thank you very much, and God bless you both richly.
    Our daughter daughter who is 26 just moved a month ago to Berlin… She still needs to learn German, and we will miss her terribly this Christmas time, but we hope to see her and explore all that Germany has to offer next year, Lord, willing! We’ve never been… Merry merry Christmas to you both! ❤️🙏🎄

    Hello! Every new video of your house showcases the hard work you have put into making it a gorgeous place to to call home. Honestly, your home should be in a magazine and how doing most of the work yourselves and learning along the way, is truly an inspiration. Take a moment and look back at the house you started with and the stunning welcoming "home" you have now. I know you both have said there is more to be done, and I look forward to watching how things evolve in your lovely Victorian cottage. ~Kendra

    You gather the spirit of Christmas together and remind me of decorating the tree and rooms with my mother for all those years, until I was decorating for her. She used to go out and gather natural things in the woods and garden to make stars to hang on the wall or give away to friends and family. Lovely items and descriptions. Thanks for all of your serious dedication and fun.

    I am a German American whose grandparent spoke German at home and of course brought with them their German Christmas Traditions.
    I am going to be sending this video to my three sisters and my sister-in-law!
    We to love tinsel on our Christmas tree and collecting Christmas Ornament is a family cultural tradition as well!
    We do hide the “German Pickle” and the person who finds it on Christmas day when we traditionally open gifts after church - the finder of the pickle earns an additional gift!
    My mother always made Christmas stolen a family favorite she also made an assortment of cookies including Gingerbread Cookies and Sugar Cookies made with Almond flavoring. My mother also made several Fruit Cakes which she would make well before Christmas and wrap with Rum and Brandy soaked cheesecloth. My mother remembers my grandmother carefully placing REAL CANDLES which they would light up. I seem to recall seeing this but I was very young at the time.
    We had a Glockenspiel and a painted and frosted cardboard village my Grandmother placed around the tree!!!
    I am soon to be 70 years old and my dear Grandparent and Mother and Father and Aunts (Tante) and Uncles are with our Lord and Savior watching from above! Thanks for bringing back fond memories.
    Oh yes, I remember singing Silent Night in German both at my Grandparents house and at church!!

I think of how it might have been for us. And l think back many years ago to Germany. Thank you for sharing.

    Every ornament garners a story over the years. Places you've visited, people who've given you special things and who may have passed on. We had ornaments (which actually came from Germany actually), that my grandmother brought out from Europe in the 1950s. Each one has a story. That makes a tree so special.

    Nor do we totally change our tree yearly. Over the years that we have been married, nearly 50 years, things have gotten broken or damaged and are no longer used. We have given our children when they left home their special ornaments that I collected for them over their lifetime, so they are no longer on our tree. And as you say we have added many new ones over the years to join the old, tried and true ones.

    I don’t change out my tree either. It’s very traditional and every ornament has a sentimental meaning. Your tree is absolutely stunning. It’s classic and traditional and never needs to be changed because it’s filled with delightful memories

    I appreciate your taste for tradition, which I share. I live in a small village in the mountains and every year I use the same decorations. We sing ancient songs and pray in the houses, sharing food and moving with lanterns between the houses of the village. I appreciate the depth and culture of your videos.

    I have purchased many German glass ornaments this year, including Lauscha Krebs and Inge-Glas. I know this may be hard to believe, but I finally decided at the age of 46 to put up my own Christmas tree and I have had such a great time shopping for glass ornaments online, as the kind I like aren’t easily found where I live. Thank you tremendously for sharing all the joy of your Christmas traditions with us. ❤

    I read in the NY Times that the Christmas Tree Pickle is something people from Michigan (they are mostly German immigrants) do as a fun activity for Christmas morning. But, the article I read is that no one really knows where that tradition really started. We are from California, and German and have not heard of the Christmas Tree Pickle! I love your Holiday decorations! So very lovely!

    Every time I watch one of your videos I think it is my favourite yet. This is so so lovely. Your beautiful tree with the archway in the background is stunning. Each decoration is just so enchanting. My eyes welled up when you told the story of the miner and the angel. My great grandfather was a miner - I hope he always felt an angel watching over him. My Granny, his daughter, loved Christmas so much. I wish I could have got her a beautiful angel like this - she would have been overjoyed.

    You two young people have some of the same traditions as our family. Most young people have a different theme tree every year. My husband and I have decorations we have collected for decades. My husband picks out something that represents something special that happened that year. Those and many other decorations go on to our main tree, that is in our living room next to a fire place. Also, I get a new bird to go on our bird tree, which is a twig that we have drug from house to house . It is in our living room in front of a window that birds from the outside often sit and look inside to see. Then I started collection fruits and vegetables years ago that started with a pickle. This is the first year we needed its own tree, that is now in our dining room. My mom lives with us now so she got her own tree in her room, that has all the cute funny soft animals that hang on it. Thank you so much for sharing your traditional Christmas with all of us.
