Modified Midsummer @ D´Box on SSS2 Day...

Have you heard how Swedes celebrates Midsummer?

Well, to those who are not keen of the European Midsummer, it was said that this day, is one of the most celebrated day specially in Scandinavia, Latvia and Estonia, apart from Christmas day. Press the link, pls? Mid-summer

Usually, one of my cousin and her family, host this celebration every summer, then gather our families and dear friends. This time, it was hosted by D´Nics at D´Box due to the reason that my cousin is in The Philippines, enjoying their summer vacation.

So, here's from last Mid-summer hosted by our municipality
Mid-summer party followed at Glyn's house...
The 2011 Maypole, hosted by Municipal Counsel

    The family time is wonderful, your back yard a perfect place for it - hosted by a great hostess! The Maypole is great, as you 'dance' around it...the two blokes seem to be enjoying the events as they carry those green bottles around the venue.

    I like that stylish net that protects the wonderful food, and the desert is great. Your family is lovely, the time togeher the best thing about this special day. Happy Mid-summer!

    I did not know about the Mid -Summer holiday but it sounds like a very nice day to spend time having lots of fun. Your family certainly looks like they are having a happy time. Thank you very much for participating in my party. I am not doing the party any longer because it takes a lot of my time. I need some extra time to do some other things. I will continue to do Cozy Home Scenes just not the party. Please continue to visit me just as usual and I will stop by your blog also. -----------

    I can remember creating a Maypole when I was in elementary school!!! Wow...that really brings back memories! I think I remember a scene in the 1994 version of "Little Women" where they were dancing around a Maypole? I'll have to watch that again to see. This is so cool! I clicked over to the history of Midsummer, and it is really interesting. I'm relieved that you guys didn't build a massive bonfire in your back yard!!! The fire from the grill was enough and represented the bonfire! :-) I see that you had a lot of the traditional foods, too, like the strawberries. Wow...very cool, Chie! You were having a GREAT time...I can tell!!! :-) It still looks as though it's a little cool because you are wearing a jacket in some of the photos. I will gladly trade you! We will reach 100 degrees this week here! :-(

Another Subtle SS #3

Fröken Vinter håller sig länge i vinterlandet! Eller hur? Jag älskar verkligen det vita landskapet vi har nu. Herr Frost är underbar även om jag får inte den jag vill ha. Skuggorna §:-( När man tittar omkring sig genom fönster eller när man tar lite promenad, det känns att man är i sagolandet. Det enda som saknades är bara MINA släde och hundar som tar mig genom skogar... he he... DREAMING! IAF, jag hade fångat några bilder denna veckan och dagen... SOME PHOTOS CAPTURED A DAY PAST & TODAY... My 2 stalks orchid greeted me while standing tall in my kitchen window... GH lit my Kosta Boda candle glasses on the stairsteps down to cellar... Taken early morning a day ago, when sun shone in the lounge, quick and short WHAT? Lil L was with US? HALLELUJAH!!! This is my workstation yesterday when sun visit me at work §;-) A WONDERFUL & A MAGICAL WINTERLAND... Gosh!!! Mrs. Winter is still hanging around here and it seems it's been too long now since she popped up §;-) But, just look ...
