December 24th is Sofia’s 14th birthday and Christmas Eve.






Laura arranged a special visit to the new European Central Bank (ECB) building here in Frankfurt. Her employer sure built an amazing structure.

Hana and Ricky learning about the Euro – or just up to more mischief.
Birthday buddies – Sofia 14 & Sam 16.

Off to hear the ringing of the bells and then Christmas Eve church service – Sofia is surrounded by her Italian friends wishing her a happy birthday.

The table is set – the tortellini is straight from Parma, Italy.
