Friday Gallery: Lucia

Apologies for the late posting but better late than never, right!

Some pics from Isolde's first* Lucia.  We weren't allowed to take any photos at pre-school (these days people worry where images of their children will end up) but we did take a few of just Isolde.  This year's celebration was rather low-key as the children in Isolde's room (Nallen) are still so little (aged 1-2), so we just sang a few songs together (i.e. there was no performance as such) and had fika. We had done a little collection for the teachers so they were given their Christmas presents at the same time.  One of them is unfortunately leaving for another job so hers was also a leaving gift.
 


I wanted to watch the Lucia celebrations on TV in the morning but Isolde just wanted me to switch to the children's channel.  Hopefully next year we can watch it together :)

Little Santa, Tomten, rides her "reindeer", practices sliding down chimneys (although Swedísh Tomten doesn't really do that...) and admires herself in the mirror.

 

Chilling in the evening with the little guy that arrived in the post from Marianne the same day.

 

* As in her first proper celebration at (pre)school. Last year we didn't do anything in particular.
