Sweden part 3...and 'advent X-mas'!

We have a tradition on my dad's side of the family celebrating an 'advent Christmas'. Basically, X-mas eve is normally very busy and therefore, we have a relaxing family get-together a few weeks before X-mas. For 2 years in a row, we have managed to get all the siblings with families to get together in Gothenburg (unfortunately minus Hanah & Morten this year.)

Cousins Minja & Anie with Matilde (the older girls were very disappointed Hannah wasn't coming as they had so much fun during the summer, but seemed to be ok playing with Matilde despite all!)

Advent Eve included Christmas food, 'aggost', gifts and of course a Santa Claus, this time a cool one with shades :-)

My sister Johanna got the gift of the year, a drill, to her excitement! :-)
