Santa Lucia

Every year in Poulsbo there is a Santa Lucia festival. She is the patren saint of light. As we have Swedish background I love the idea of Santa Lucia. To celebrate, the oldest daughter in the family wakes up early and makes breakfast for the family. She wears a white gown and red sash with a crown of candles on her head. I can't wait till Lizzy is old enough to participate.
