Christmas week is a name for the time between Christmas and New Year. It may begin with Christmas Eve celebrations. It may end with New Year's Eve and New Year's Day celebrations.
"Romjul" or the English version "Interscotia" is what it is called in Norway. Thank you wikipedia. I'm going to start using both with friends and see which is more popular.

Christmas is always on the 25th of December so the day of the week changes every year. Christmas 2011 was on a Sunday so logically it should be on a Sunday in 2018 but because of leap years the next time Christmas will fall on a Sunday will be 2016. The pattern does eventually repeat but not for many years.

No. Because of a leap year, it can be 5 or 6 years. 2011 will have Christmas on a Sunday and the next time will be in 2016, 5 years from 2011, because there are two leap years within the next seven years.
Why does Christmas always fall on Thursday in the leap year halfway between two odd-numbered years with Christmas on Sunday?
There is a pattern in the way days and dates fall. If Christmas Day is on a Sunday 3 years before a leap year, then it will always follow that the Christmas Days in the next years are a Monday, a Tuesday, and for the leap year Wednesday will be skipped and Christmas Day will be on a Thursday. Follow on for another 3 years and you get Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Leap years are always even, so if it is 3 years before a leap year, then the first year that the Sunday is on has to be odd, as will the year 3 years after a leap year. These patterns are common and you could look at other specific combinations of dates and days in the same way and find recurring patterns there too.
