We had a very tasty holiday meal and way too many delicious desserts to choose from.  My sister Pat makes the best Krumkaker (Cardamom Cone-Shaped Wafers).  I believe she uses the recipe given to her by our grandma, Severine Jacobsen, who was a wonderful baker.  No matter what time of the year you visited, there was always plenty of sweet stuff to choose from.  Presents are opened after dinner and Santa Brent hands out the presents.  He's been playing Kris Kringle in our family for quite awhile now, starting when nieces & nephew were quite young.  

 We started a tradition a few years ago that after opening presents we have a wrapping paper war (rolling up the paper and throwing it at each other).  It works as a great calorie burner, stress reducer and makes cleaning up a lot more fun!
