God jul ~ Merry Christmas
In Sweden, they celebrate Christmas on Christmas Eve. To fully understand Swedish traditions--->
I woke up to two stocking on my bedroom door!
Santa brought mine from Beaufort!
For breakfast we had sandwiches and St. Lucia buns.
Advent candles!
After breakfast, we went to church!
Louise and Nils preparing some food!
The table ready for Swedish rice pudding!
In the rice pudding there is an almond and if you eat it you will get married in the next year!
Louise got the almond!
Santa came early on skis for us to take a photo!
He doesn't know what to do with out snow!
We watched cartoons, drank glögg, and ate some goodies!
The dinning room ready for dinner!

A tradition in Sweden is for Santa to deliver the Christmas gifts after dinner! Louise and I went for a walk to see how many times we could see Santa walking from house to house! We saw him three times!
"SANTA! OH MY GOD! SANTA'S COMING! I KNOW HIM! I KNOW HIM!"
Santa!!!
Santa asked for whisky and because Nils wasn't around Agneta gave Santa the best of the best!
My favorite Christmas tradition was writing rhymes about the gifts we got each other.
Louise's amazing candy table! She was baking all week!
Merry Christmas from my family to yours!
Wonderful traditions and great pics. Merry Christmas from the Lowcountry.
