Lantern Walk

We were invited for the third year to join the Steinwart family on their annual lantern walk. They are from Germany, and Maddie and their daughter Anke have been in the same class for three years. In celebration of Germany St. Martin's Day on November 11th, children take out their lanterns and go on a walk.

After appetizers and warm drinks, dads light the candles of the paper lanterns and we walk around a local park in the dark. I wasn't able to capture how amazing it really looks. Our kids LOVE it!

We enjoyed hot chocolate, mulled wine, and close calls with the candles with the Eidenbenz family too!
