Vi hedder den 25. "Første Juledag" og den 26. "Anden Juledag", 2 meget vigtige dage i Danmark, men den meste vigtig Jul dag er i dag... JULEAFTEN!
Butikker og kontorer er lukket alle 3 dage, meget forskellig fra Amerika, når vi bruger den 24. for at slutte vores juleindkøb and den 26. for at bytte eller returnere alle julegaver!
I eftermiddag går vi til kirke som en familie og dengang alle Nørgaards kommer sammen for juleaften....inklusiv julemad med and, danser omkring juletræ og julegaver bytning, plus mange andre ting at Jess og jeg vil lære som vi oplever vores første dansk jul.
Today is December 24, Christmas Eve, in Denmark.
We call December 25 "First Christmas Day" and December 26 "Second Christmas Day", two very important days in Denmark, but the most important Christmas day is today....Christmas Eve! Shops and offices are closed all 3 days, unlike in America, where we use the 24th to finish our Christmas shopping and the 26th to exchange and/or return Christmas gifts!
This afternoon we are going to church as a family and then all the Nørgaards will come together for Christmas Eve....including Christmas dinner with duck, dancing around the Christmas tree and Christmas gift exchange, plus many other things that Jess and I will learn as we experience our first Danish Christmas.

Merry Christmas to you, too. It'll be my second Christmas in Denmark.
Merry Christmas to all of you! We love you & miss you and look forward to celebrating with you tomorrow on SKYPE.
Merry Christmas to you too! Christmas Eve is also the most important day here in Sweden, although shops do open on Boxing Day.
We've eaten our Christmas meal, opened presents and, of course, watched Donald Duck ( a huge must here in Sweden).
Have a great Christmas!
