My mother and I took a very enjoyable bus trip yesterday to Bethlehem, PA to visit the annual Christkindlmarkt and hear The Von Trapps  (4 of the great grandchildren of Captain and Maria Von Trapp portrayed in The Sound of Music) sing.  They were wonderful.  We were amazed that they sang in English, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese, Swahili, French, German, and several more languages.  My mother was thrilled to talk to Sofi, the oldest of the group, later in the afternoon while we were browsing Christkindlmarkt and ask her about all the languages.   Sofi explained that they can't speak all the languages, they just learn the songs.  They have traveled the world with their singing and bring a bit of the world to those for whom they sing. 

 

I almost forgot to post the cards from Joyce's CTMH card workshop on Tuesday.   

This is a spinner card.  Pull on the little snowflake and the big one spins!
