God Jul!

About a month ago, Shane woke up with a bad back and a lot of neck pain. He set up an appointment with the chiropractor that same day. While he was in there, he overheard one of the employees say something in Swedish, and so he immediately spoke some Norwegian to her (Swedish and Norwegian are quite similar). The woman was excited to hear someone speak Norwegian so well, and even better, her fiance was Norwegian. She got Shane's email address, and over the past month, he has gone and done a couple of things with her fiance and practiced his Norwegian. In December every year, they have a big Norwegian Christmas party. Shane helped serve (thus the awesome chef's outfit), and we all ate some delicious food, danced around the Christmas tree singing Norwegian Christmas carols, and even had a special visit from Santa. It was a lot of fun, and we decided it would be a fun yearly tradition!
