Souvenirs

Here are a few of the things we brought back with us from Scandinavia:

2 Swedish cookbooks for Jenny (The coolest one, which I didn't buy, was a cookbook compiled of all the menus served at the Nobel Prize Banquet. We visited City Hall where the dinner and dancing are held each year).
A bunch of Swedish CDs (popular music) for Mike
A traditional Dala Horse
Orrefors Crystal candle holders (Sweden is famous for it's crystal)

4 pieces of art (of Stockholm, Copenhagen, and the Vasa Warship)
Christmas ornament
Beautiful picture book of Sweden
Hard Rock Cafe Pilsners from Sweden & Copenhagen (to add to our collection)

what'd ya get me? We have a ton of Dala horses...my mom's side is of Swedish decent and my grandma gives us one almost almost every year. I'm surprised the Primary could spare you both for that long. Heard you are having a hard time getting people.
