Midsummer Mood...on my SSS


My Mid-summer Celebration

Yes! Sweden was on holiday on the 24th June 2011. Time to celebrate the 2011 Midsummer. It was nice weather, although it wasn't a hot day but it was pleasant day.

Here was my day with family & friends...
The day started with this--sunshine!!! Outside home---
Gazebo catches pretty shadow... Then in vicinity courtyard...
Our Maypole stand still...
Then, sun hid under the dark clouds...
Lil Liz could only showed her subtle me too...
GH & lil Liz aren't so happy with the sun, huh?

Suddenly, SHINES! & had a happy faces

While chasing shadows, I saw these men w/ midsummer wreath, cool!
Swedes listened to the midsummer songs
*************************************
Now, hang on at my cousin's place for dinner & games...
Went out for to glimpse a lil sunshine...

THIS MORNING MIDSUMMER DAY...
Cool sunshine welcomes me in my reading nook...
But... an hour later, do you believe it?HAILING...
Anyways, I am indoor and it doesn't bother me... I use to tell my family, " there's nothing bad weather, put on the right gears and everything will be OK"

How about your dear friends? Are you enjoying your weather?
HAPPY SSS TO ALL PLAYERS...
And don't forget to head over to:
Tracy...far beyond in the Land DownUnder §;-)

GOD BLESS ALL & ALWAYS KEEP HEARTS IN PLACE.

    All the outdoor activities were captured and enjoyed before the hail - excellent timing! Local celebrations under a (mostly) sunny sky are to be enjoyed - we were at a local street fair today, and the sun seemed to have everyone in a fine mood! Your outdoor buffet looks delicious, the party attendees hopefully brought their appetite!

    What a lovely family!

    How the weather changes, but I like your words of wisdom about putting on the right gear and all is well!

    I drooled over all that food and then fainted when I saw the cakes ... lol.

    Thanks for the visit and good to see you again.

    You are so right, there is no bad weather, as long as we have weather, all is good.
    Love your midsummer festivities and great shadows, especially of the people on the bench listening to the song. What would summer be without the contrast of a good thunder-storm and hail? You show us so many beautiful shadows inside and out. A great post!

    Så midsommarfina ni är, ser att du firat midsommar precis så där mysigt som det ska vara. Har tittat jättenoga på dina bilder, vet att min faster gillar och gå på såna fester. Har en kusin, Lena och hennes man bor också nära dig.
    Och vilka hagel! Otroligt att det kan bildas så stora på sommaren.
    Ha en skön solig söndag

    Wow. Crazy weather. I like your attitude about wearing the right clothing to accommodate any weather.

Having a BALL in our Outdoor cozy lounge...

AT LAST!!! Isn't it an easy life when our weather is not that HOT or too COLD ? ***  Det är så underbart liv när vädret tillåter. Absolut man får njuta det ljuva livet i solen. This is the time when I move our lounge outdoor and just loving to pamper it with my simple way and a dash of a chic style (at least) I feel it. *** En härlig dag sån här årstid. Jag flyttade vardagsrummet i uteverandan och den älskar jag. En enkel stil med en liten chic-touch! Here is my new outdoor LOUNGE!!!   Me & GH went for a morning walk (as always)   Preparing for a cozy outdoor lounge... I move the buffé table and gathered my treasures...  I gathered all my pensies in my galvanized tray... Cotton cookie holder from Malta with a St. John's cross My wrought cloche which I wanted to rust but still long way to go...  Mini grill? GH asked! Guess NOT! Don't you like it?   This corner will be a drink corner and ready to serve us... GH cho

Inherited--- A Vintage and Delicate Treasure

A sofisticated to my eyes... When I was young, I know what we had on top of my family's table. I don't really care what kind of treasures we had? I just remember that my grandfather had a very fine china set and unfortunately ended to a wrong greedy grandchildren, my first cousin's wife. Mum inhereted some of the set and as I recall she adored them till her last breath. If I am still living in The Philippines, I would love to keep them by myself. Hopefully, dear sis will adore as Mum does. Then, my new life started when I marry GH and move to Stockholm, Sweden 25 yrs ago. I know my love of kitchen/tables gadgets, i.e. household utensils, deep in my heart. It was already forseen by many of our friends--- my pedantic way and the love of a house to make it a home. I thank you Mum for that. It is true the saying " what we had experienced from our childhood, is what we get when we have our own" ? Well, when GH mother passed away 2 decades ago, GH inherite
