There was plenty going on at Bessemer's Julfest. There was a craft station where families gathered to make several different types of ornaments. The ornaments were then used to decorate our Christmas tree. We had a feast of wonderful food and plenty of desserts. Later on we sang songs and some of the children learned the moves for Hey Tomtegubbar...they were so cute. The day was topped off with a visit from Tomte and he had bags for all of the children....all and all a great day!!
