Earlier this summer, I saw that for their Christmas set this year, Lego was going to be making a Christmas market. Now, I’ve never been to a Christmas market in Germany, but I have been to the one in Chicago, which I understand to be pretty authentic, and I loved every moment of it. I’ve also used the Christmas market as an example of a European Christmas tradition in school many years. Obviously, we needed to get it!

This week, I got an e-mail from Lego, letting me know that I could order it (early, even!). So, I did. That day. And, I was very impressed with how fast it got here. We’ll be putting this together in school in December, and it will become part of our school room Christmas decorations! What a nice early Christmas gift to our family!
