My hosts home, Germany - 19th November 2011
By: LadyButterfly
Hello mommy!
Today we arrived safetly in Germany. It's icecold here and we were so happy to crawl out of this little envelope. And the first thing we saw was this little sign for us!
But that wasn't the only surprise! There was also a welcome committee! There where three other TVs and they are called... Mr.Zwie-Fox, Icy and Pink_Bear. All of them are really nice and made us a warm welcome!
After saying everyone "Hello" our new host LadyButterfly told us, we will have a little TV-party tonight. It is a welcome and goodbye party. A welcome for us and a goodbye for Pink_Bear, he will leave on monday.
So we started to make some hotdogs!
First we took the buns out of the bag!
Then heat up the sausages!
And when the sausages are hot, the party could start!
Yummi, mommy... that was soooooo tasty! We two ate four hotdogs and drank a little bit beer! But don't worry our host is looking for us, so we couldn't drink so much!
It is such a great evening and it hasn't end jet, so we think we will stay out long! But thats ok LadyButterfly told us, because tomorrow is sunday and we can sleep long.
Mommy, we are missing you, but we will have also a great time here!
We hope you have a nice weekend!
Love
Arty & Bunneh

Bautzen, Germany - 23rd November 2011
By: LadyButterfly
Hello mommy!
Yesterday in the evening we recognized the christmastime ist starting! LadyButterfly took us and Icy with her to Bautzen. She had to do some shopping in the mall, which ist called "Kornmarktcenter".
You won't believe it, but we saw a christmas wonderland! Everything was decorated for christmas, it was so beautifull!
These stars under the roof of the mall are very special for this region LadyButterfly told us. They are called "Herrenhuter Stars" and coming from a little village near her home which is called Herrenhut. Centurys ago these Stars were invented by munks.
Today you can find many of them during the christmas time.
Here we discovered the christmas decoration in the mall!
It is so beautifull and many things are moving around. There is also a ferris, but it was to hard for LadyButterfly to find a seat for us. So we took place in a toy store!
Here we are sitting in the middle of handmade pyramides and smokers. They where made in the Erzgebirge and are very famouse in Germany.
Mostly the people are very proud to have such a handmade figure from the Erzgebirge. They are very beautifull, but also very expensive!
We were very carefull not to break such a figure, when we made this picture!
Oh, mommy! We met Santa!!!
And we told him, he shall bring you many, many gifts for christmas!
And thats another regional peculiarty from the Erzgebirge. It is called Schwippbow, but there is no translation into english.
That's also handmade and stands in the christmas time in many windows. This is one very big Schwippbow, LadyButterfly has just a very tiny one. She will show it to us on saturday, when we will decorate the flat for christmas!
It was a great day in the mall yesterday mommy!
Now we have just to wait for the first snow... then christmas will be perfect!
We hope you have also great days!
Love
Arty and Bunneh

My hosts home, Germany - 28th November 2011

Heyho mommy!
We have a very exciting weekend behind us, but LadyButterfly has very much stress so she wasn't able ot resize the photos for us, so we could write these update for you. She feels very sorry about that. But now she had time, so we can tell you what we have done this weekend.
On saturday after doing the housework, LadyButterfly brought two boxes and a dollhouse into the living room. The boxes were really dusty and we thought they weren't touched for years. On one box was a caffee machine so we thought LadyButterfly got a new caffee machine.
All TV-guests of her were sitting around the boxes, we were so excited, what will be in this boxes!
And the secret was....
in the boxes were the christmas stuff and the dollhouse, isn't a dollhouse it is a crib for little Jesus!
For the first advent LadyButterfly wanted to decorate her home and she asked us to help her. We were happy we could help her, but we wanted also to have fun and so we ride a little bit on the pyramide!
A really cool and sweet thing is this smoker!
He has a special history and is the favorite smoker of LadyButterfly. That's because he was build by her boyfriend, with 7 years. First he build it for his grandmother, but when she died he took it back and now it is LadyButterflys loved smoker!
Hey mommy, do you remember the photo of us with the Schwippbow. LadyButterfly has also such a Schwippbow, but a really tiny one and it isn't a real one from the Erzgebirge.
We like him nevertheless!
Here you can see us together with the dollhou... ahhhhhmmm crib.
But after decorating the flat, the best of all started. LadyButterfly took us all with her to the kitchen were she told us, we will make christmas cookies. Yummi!!!!
We put all ingridients together and then the kneading started. Hehe that was so funny!
Also funny... we had to roll out the dough with a winebottle!
LadyButterfly hasn't a rolling pin and she had forgotten to ask her mother for her rolling pin, so she had to improvise!
But what shall we say? It worked!
Yummi that smells tasty... we can't take our eyes of the cookies in the oven!
And in the end, we MUST try the cookies and they were so tasty! We couldn't stop eating them!
This was a great first advent, ok we miss a little bit the snow, but maybe we will see a little bit in the next time!
We hope you had also such a great weekend like us, mommy!
Love
Arty & Bunneh
