I tried to make Norwegian Christmas bread (Julekake) and TOTALLY failed. My mom is gonna help me later on this week, and I'm sure it'll be a lot better. That's my uncle's Christmas present.
I'm also gonna go over to my grandma's on Friday to help her bake and decorate the house. Mmmm date crumble!!!

That sounds good. For us, I will be making traditional Icelandic (as much as one can find ingredients for in South Texas.)
I think our Jólakaka is similar to your Norwegian one, we don´t use much fruit in it, just a few raisins and some candied peel.
For Christmas we would like to have Jólarjupa (Christmas Ptarmigan) or Hangikjöt (Smoked Leg of Lamb) served with Kartölflur í jafningi (potatoes in Bechamel sauce.)
I'm also making lots of Christmas cookies
