Norwegians sure know how to stretch out a holiday. Christmas goes from mid-November through the end of January, and I am not exaggerating! The only time that there are no Christmas parties is between ~ December 18 and January 2 because that's when everyone should be with their families. Since most venues get booked up quickly for the early December parties, some groups have to schedule their parties in November or January. Last night was the Schlumberger Children's Christmas party, held at a nearby hotel. Rhiannon saw 2 of her buddies from barnehage so she spent the whole party running, jumping and dancing with them. Here she is with Christian:
And with Sofia (not her best buddy
Sofie, but still a good friend because as soon as Rhiannon saw her, she ran over and gave a big hug):
Here is part of the action that the evening involved -- holding hands and going around the Christmas tree while doing 'Hokey-Pokey' type moves and singing Norwegian songs -- quite hilarious to watch! We brought nice shoes for Rhiannon to wear, but of course she insisted on wearing her snow boots.
