Midsummer celebration!

Midsummer day; in the morning mom and I went to the library to the story time. Afterwards I played with the other kids. In the story time room they have a whole box full of toys!
Midsummer celebration at the Swedish Institute. I got a yellow balloon! We also ate a Midsummer lunch there. We all had different things. I had meatballs, daddy had Swedish hotdog and mom had "sill" (=pickled herring). 
It was extremely hot and we sweated in the scoring sun! Mom kept on putting sunscreen on me but we still all got tanned. Mom burned her shoulders since she forgot to put sunscreen there.
Waiting in the hot sun for "Midsommarstången" (=the may pole) to be raised. 
Wow, here it goes. We all counted: 1, 2, 3, oooo hej! 
Then we danced around the may pole. Prästens lilla kråka, Vi äro musikanter and my favorite; Små Grodorna. Moms friend Margo was also there with her son Santiago. Look at us all dancing!
