MIDSUMMER 2012 !

Once a year we celebrate midsummer, a tradition around the summer solstice ! We say the sun never goes down, it's bright all night. Which is pretty amazing when you think about it. ! We have our special traditions that we do on this particular day: Dance around the big maypole, pick flowers and make little floral wreaths to wear on our heads and of course eat lots of delicious summer food !


In true spirit of the holiday, my sister, mom and I sat off to a close by meadow in the morning to pick summer flowers for our floral wreaths and bouquets:

Later on the one and only granny arrived for the festivities:

The day was spent pretty much just hanging around outside in the sun. Working on that nonexistent tan of mine (!)
And of course eating the yummy bbqued food !

Happy Midsummer !!
