Who would have thought that our family, all of us 3/4 Norwegian, would be celebrating our first Syttende Mai (Norwegian Independence/Constitution Day) in Taiwan. Anna, a true Norwegian, invited some of us "almost" Norwegians over to her apartment to celebrate. It was so fun! We had traditional open faced sandwiches, salads, Norwegian cheese, cakes, ice cream, coffee, and tea. The kids had a blast! We learned lots of fun facts about Norway and about how to celebrate the day in true Norwegian fashion.
Joey's first taste of lefse...he ate 3 pieces. Yummy!
Elle and Ike had orange races. I guess they are usually done with raw eggs, but Anna decided that since the party was inside, the oranges were safer. Good thinking!
Ike did a great job, especially since he is right handed and can only use his left hand right now!

That looks like a lot of fun!
It's been a while since I've been to your blog. Sorry to hear about Ike's arm but glad to see that he is doing well. We will be praying that it heals quickly.
Looks like you guys had fun celebrating! Lefse always makes things fun!
