The kids had school on Thursday so we ate tacos that night. Last night, we finally sat down to an authentic Thanksgiving dinner that couldn't be be beat with some friends of ours. The food was great and nobody was arrested for littering.
After church this morning, we went to a local, medieval themed Christmas market. They had blacksmiths, bards, and venison stew. I couldn't verify whether the venison was poached from the king's deer but I'll concede that the stuff they included (e.g. mice races) was more fun than the bits they left out (e.g. the plague rats and the stockades).
After getting home, we decorated our tree and watched The Grinch. Everybody sang along.
The advantage of celebrating Thanksgiving on Saturday is that we got to skip the whole Black Friday nonsense. Pretty clever, these Germans. Click below for photos.

Great photos! I'm so jealous of your medieval themed German Christmas fair. The history major in me is feeling a little bitter. :)
