I love my Uggs, always have always will. Despite what everyone says they are the warmest shoes you could own. I have had the Bailey for many many years in several different colors and now I invested in a pair of platform Uggs. My pair is the UGG Classic Mini in color Sand. They are very versatile no matter what you are combining them with. A skirt, a pair of pants or a dress. And I also love the extra height they are adding. Great for long trousers.

This is a thing I have never thought of while I was younger and kid free. Did not make any sense for me to get random things in case I would forget about an ocassion I needed a little gift or I´d have no time left to get anything. Now many years and three kids later this makes a hundred percent sense to me. There are tons of tiny ocassions you need to have a little something at home like….

– when a tooth fell out and the tooth fairy comes the same night

– when you need a little bribery (for family photos or things like this)

– a birthday party that was sneaking up on you cause your kid forgot the invitation 

– when you didn´t count twice and only had 21 things for your kids advent calendar 🙂

– when you suddenly realized the dinner invitation was today and you have no minute left to leave the house and get a thing

 

What kind of gifts to keep in your Gift Closet 

For the kids:

– I do like to keep little LOL dolls, little Barbie dolls, Schleich animals or little surprise boxes for my girls

– Small games, coloring or scratch books, trendy items like unicorn, mermaid or Gabby´s Dollhouse pieces

For the grown-ups:

– gift cards, cholcolates a nice bottle of wine (we can drink it ourselves if we don´t end up using it)

 

What kind of gift wrapping makes sense to keep in your Gift Closet

– Cards

– Wrapping Paper

– Gift Bags

– Bows and gift ribbon

Wow November was a doozy. I have had so many appointments and so much preparations for December (parties, meal planning, Christmas planning, kids stuff I had to attend to) it flew by so fast I still can not fathom the year being over in less than 4 weeks. Anyways my November outfits have been the creme de la creme of layering and I have loved getting dressed so much. Besides my regular color theme of warm Fall hues you can find some blues and lots of christmassy Reds.

Tried and True Christmas Markets in and around Regensburg …

It is that time of the year again full of excitement and anticipation on the upcoming Christmas festivities and holidays. All the family parties and the decorations and lights everywhere but also the Christmas markets. Oh how I love the smell of the BBQ´s and the sweets wobbling around each booth of the markets. The lights and little fires everywhere and all the trees and decorations. It is just so festive and special and gets me again every year.

With children it is definitely double special cause the two big girls start remembering things and also recognize what is going on a lot better than years ago.

 

Thurn & Taxis Romantic Christmas Market 

This one is probably the most known Christmas market in Regensburg. It is nestled into the backyard of the Thurn & Taxis castle and the flair is unbeatable. If offers many differnt kinds of foods and drinks. There  are also some possibilities to escape the cold and warm up inside (a coffee shop  a bar and a champagne parlor). It is very clean and has toilets on site. On weekends you can watch the Regensburger Christkindl on the balcony saying a poem and wishing everyone a happy advent time. They have alpakas and a whole area dedicated for small kids with some rides. The castle looks very festive at night but it gets super crowded then and parking is horrrific.

Entrance and food prices are overall very high but I’d say if you have never been I would definitely recommend to at least go once.

 

Spital Christmas Market 

A very very small but cute Christmas market across the bridge of the city centre. It only has a few bothes but usually totally different things than the other markets offer. The view over to the big cathedral the dome and the river danube is breathtaking.

 

Neupfarrplatz Regensburg Christmas Market

The most nostalgic Christmas market, maybe not per se but for me. I have only known this one for centuries and still like to go although I have others I love a lot more. With its red and white striped iconic roofs and the kids carousel. It is very pretty by night cause everything lights up and the flair is great but super boring by day. 

 

Castle Guteneck

 

This might be my favorite Christmas market of all times. It is a huge area around the castle of Guteneck.

You enter at the foot of the castle and immidiately are at the food court but don’t stop here. Go a little to the left and you are suddenly surrounded by trees, fireplaces and animals. Let this be your first stop and enjoy an orange-ginger punsch.  So delicious!!!

After that you can walk up to the castle by going back on the main road or you can take the side and walk the fairy tale road up to the castle. There is so much to explore for children. Little horses inclusive.

The castle is beautiful and you can go inside and have a hot cup of coffee and a waffle or a crepes. There is a gorgeous coffee inside the castle you can have snacks and a great view. Taking the main road down there is a huge barn where you can enjoy a cup of hot mulled wine and listen to some live music. 

 

Pullman City Christmas Market

I love the Western flair and even more when there are thousands of twinkling lights and decorated trees. Pullman City during Christmas time is just magical. You can enjoy food and drinks outside from all the little boths or you go inside for a hearty Western dinner. For the time of the Christmas market there is no entrance fee but some of the offered foods are pretty expensive. Last year we have paid 25 Euro for three crepes.
