Kinderfasching!

 On Saturday, the Mardi Gras Prince and Princess with two members of their Krew visited German School.  They delighted the children with stories of how Karnival is celebrated in Germany and give each of the students a pin.

 On Sunday, Prinz Wilhelm and Prinzessin Darlene and their entire entourage celebrated Kinderfasching with us, and helped in the crowing of the new Kinder Prinz and Kinder Prinzessin!

 



Prinz Will and Prinzessin Mary were so cute!  There's me behind them.  

I was honored to receive the Prinz's Orden (on the left) as well as both the Prinz's and Prinzessin's pin.  I also received the Rheinisher Verein's Orden (Mardi Gras Society honor on the right)!  I felt quite special.  These medallions are quite an honor to receive.  The one on the right has a beautiful  and lovely, detailed Chicago skyline!
