6th of Dec- St Nicholas

My sisters hubby to the left, and Max Kim and Leonie Anna, my nephew and niece+ godchild, they grew sooo much since last year.

Papa as "Nikolaus" and my brother Felix played the "Knecht Rupprecht" (his helper). We have the tradition that they come on the 6th of December. Good kids get presents and the naughty ones will be put into his big sack/bag. To please the Nikolaus the kids are supposed to tell him a little poem, play something on an instrument or sing a song. Felix and Papa came from the cold dark making lots of noise to my sister's house. There were 3 families with little kids and us Günkels. Was good fun espiecially the dressing up part with everything we could findd at home and the kids made biiiiig eyes :-O
