Jul and Glogg

What a terrifiic Christmas weekend! It was kicked off with a traditional caroling "flash-mob" around Northpointe with ~23 of the neighborhood family adults and children. We celebrated Friday day at GGMa and GGPa's, then capped off the night with a traditional Norwegian Christmas celebration (Julaften) at the McNabney's with the Bowers family complete with pickled herring, swedish meatballs, smoked salmon and glogg. We woke the next morning to a dusting of snow and plethora of gifts under the tree. The kids all got Nintendo DSi gaming systems, so it was a relatively quiet day. Now they are off to St. Louis to meet with the Snyders and Fesslers clans. Good times. I am resting and watching a great KC football game. Go Chiefs!
