We're storming towards christmas, and it dawned on us yesterday night, that today would be Santa Lucia...
It is an old Saint's Day, but in Scandinavia, this day has been turned into a celebration of light, with breakfast in bed for the oldest in the house, provided by
Lucia her self and the star boys and terns (if you have a gaggle of girls going...) (well, actually it is their parents)."Luckily" Lars wanted attention in the middle of the night so mummy had the pleasure of sticking the buns that daddy had prepared at 1.30 in the oven in time... better late than never, and surely a morning to remember!

I used to love Santa Lucia night, waking up with angels (of various sizes) in my room. I'd always forget it was going to happen, and it was always a pleasant surprise.
How cute are those kids?! I miss all those Norwegian/Scandinavian traditions we learnt at Newbold...
