We were invited to a traditional Swedish midsummer celebration yesterday! Our friends, Mikael and Cecilia, brought all of the traditional celebration food - including herring, new potatoes, aquavit, beer, meatballs, and a fabulous strawberry cake. Yum! Cecilia brought flowers to make our flower crowns and we listened to music and watched people raise the maypole. It was so fun to take part in the festivities!
Dancing and singing around the maypole!
Sophia and I with our flower crowns on :-) Can you tell I made my own??? :-) Apparently, I used too much greenery...but not bad for a 1st attempt! Ben also had a crown, but we couldn't capture him on camera.
