4 Days of Christmas

On the 23rd, called Little Christmas Eve, we had rice porridge for supper which is a Norwegian tradition. On the 24th, Christmas Eve, we had our Christmas dinner and gift opening with our own family as we usually do. We had roast leg of lamb with mashed potatoes as a change up since we would have other turkey dinners. We had a very nice time with our family including playing Trivial Pursuit in the evening. Then we had a quiet day on Christmas Day while Mary, Chris and Mike were having the day with "the other side of the family." Elaine and Janice were working on food preparation for going up to Saskatoon on the 26th. In the morning on Boxing Day we travelled up to Saskatoon for turkey dinner and the day with Elaine's family. It was a full day of eating and visiting with a short break for gift opening, and then more eating and visiting. We had a great time as usual and then headed home for the night. It has been a great 4 days of Christmas.
