Glaedelig Jul!

... every Christmas sees different traditions that vary from family to family.

This year, we have started a more Danish tradition of creating our very own nisser village. Originally we had a little General Store and a few trees, but that changed one day I was walking around in Costco with a friend.

And now we have a complete town. If you look closely enough, you can pick out the figurines that came with the houses apart from the nissers that we were given.

Also, the little nisser I was given many Christmases back has made another foray back out into the living room. He usually hides in the bookcase during the year and tries to read all my books, but he can't figure out how to open the covers.

Chir calls him the freaky little Christmas gnome, so he is now named Freaky.
