Norweigan Cookies and Family Sleepover


















And the traditions begin... Our family has many fun traditions at Christmas time. The first of many is the sleepover at the Garff ranch and baking norwegian cookies. We all get together and have a sleepover at my aunt and uncles family ranch and sleep we usually do not. Every time we do this we all fear going to sleep because the boys are always up to no good all night. The are usually creaming people with shaving cream and playing all sorts of tricks on everyone, but none the less it is a fun time with laughter. Then all day the next day we bake lots and lots of Norwegian cookies. We all make a batch of norwegian cookie dough there is Serinakaka, Pepakaka, Danish Krigle, Sandkaka, Krumcakes and Swedish Spritz. We bake all day long and then we have our cookies for the Christmas season to take to parties and enjoy a home. It was a fun weekens however we decided that next year the kids stay home and adults only are going!!! Like Said this is the first of many watch for more posts of traditions to come.
