middsommars afton

summer is here, and so is midsommars. first on the agenda, picking some flowers. zoe is well trained and picks some beauties...
even pappa gets into the flower feeling.
next on the agenda: good friends, check. good food, check. drinks, check. wonderful summer weather, double check.
then it was time for eijla's very first taste of solid food. what better to start with than a middsommars new potato.
it went well, but seems like the spoon was not the funnest thing in the world. went much better with a "finger spoon". congratulations eijla! welcome to the world of real food, well, kinda.
after a yummy meal, it was time for the pappas to rest and all of us girls when down to the playground in the village. it was great for the girls to burn off some energy, so that we would be able to keep up with them later.
then it was back to the house to dress the middommars pole! which apparently can be a clothes line pole as well! it maybe was not the prettiest of middsommars stång, but it was made with love!

even eijla and monica had turns trying on the daisy chain crowns...
glad midsommars, and thanks to the österströms for sharing it with us!
