Frankenmuth: Michigan's Christmas Town

Frankenmuth's claim to fame is the largest Christmas store in the world!! And lucky us, Frankenmuth is a mere 1.5 hours away.  So of course we had to make a visit while we are living here.  The rest of the town is a cute touristy town, called Little Bavaria.  It has a lot of shops and bakeries with names like Cheese Haus, Candy Haus, and anything else ending in Haus.  The buildings are lined with gingerbread trim and have an old German feel.  It was worth the visit :)

We invited a few friends and some met up with us (minus their husbands and all of their kids) so we looked  like a polygamist family.  People were giving us some interesting looks.  I was glad Brody was actually able to come with us to something for once.  While we were there, we browsed the crazy, huge Christmas store.  It had every kind of ornament that you could dream of and everything else Christmas.  Then we ate lunch at the famous German restaurant and walked around town.  It was a fun day trip!!
