Midsummer at Gladö – with all of our friends! I think we were 27 this year – it varies a bit since not everybody is able to join us each time and now since some of the kids are adults and chose to spend Midsummer elsewhere. Each family challenged the rest of us with a competition – our family chose “beer-pong” but with water and no need to drink up the cups. It was a tournament where everyone faced everyone and took a while to complete but I think it was much appreciated since it brought out a real urge to win.
After playing the games and having a great herring lunch we all went to my sisters for a bbq dinner to celebrate her birthday and end a lovely day together. We sat outside until way past midnight. It was the warmest Midsummer we can remember and no rain hardly at all. It had been raining pretty heavy all night though – therefor the wellington boots on some of our feet. But no need for umbrellas or raincoats all day. Yeah!
