Today is Sweden's national day, which isn't really a big deal, or so I thought until we arrived at this party in our old neighborhood to picnic with Erin's family some other friends. This picture shows a small fraction of the crowd that had gathered to enjoy live music, games, booths and a pretty legit carnival under alternating cool clouds and broiling sun. I think Erin and I both imagined a lot of cozy talking and eating on our picnic blankets but I guess we forgot that we have toddlers who love exploring above all else. The pappas treated the kids to some tickets and we plopped them on half a dozen rides then peeled them, screaming, off each of them. Temporary meltdowns aside, everyone had a really nice time celebrating some ambiguous historical event.
