Happy Syttende Mai!


That's "Happy 17th Of May" for you non-Norwegians.
Syttende Mai has a similar significance in Norway as July 4th has in the United States of America. It marks the country's declaration of independence and the triumph of constitutional government. This day is also called Constitution Day and National Day and is a great spring festival in Norway.

We didn't do much in the way of celebrating this great day.....but I did catch Rocky sporting the traditional colors!

Bring us some Lefse when you come, Grandpa!!
Then we can celebrate in true fashion!

Ha en fin dag!
Sara
