Midsummer 2013

Hello :)
   Got home so late (ok, fine at 10pm... not that late. But late enough. ) and felt too tired to start writing a post.
 
But yesterday i had a lovely day!! Didnt know how the day would turn out, so just took it as it came!!

The morning was stressful, and i ended up getting so stressed that i had to just lie on my bed and try to calm down - im not good at handling stress. But i calmed myself down, and continued with making the cake!!
 

(I made the cake ;))

I then got ready, and ate a pre lunch and then we were on our way out to our aunts cottage in the country!

It took c.a 2 hours in the car to drive out to the cottage, and when we first got there we drank a welcome drink (i stuck to cola zero) and had a few appetizers (salt sticks & small crackers).

And then we all sat down for lunch, which was a typical midsummer lunch with (herring, potatoes, salmon, egg, meatballs etc)

I ended up eating so much for lunch that i got a headache and sore stomach... -_-

As we arrived so late we had missed the dancing & festivities, so no dancing around the pole this year... Though i wasnt so sad.

After a while it was time for dessert... I still felt so full from lunch, but of course you have to taste the cake you made!!

After dessert we went for a walk down to the lake.

^^THis is the midsummer pole

When we got back to the cottage me & my mum made these flower crowns (which is typically done on midsummer!)

And then of course it was photos... and i can never be serious!!

After that i spent the next few hours talking with my family, and then suddenly it was 8pm, and it was time to drive home!!

I had a lovely midsummer :)

And starting to enjoy the midsummer festivites and celebrations!
