Swedish/International Open House

My mission companion has been back to Sweden many times. Somtimes to run marathons, sometimes to visit relatives, and sometimes for dress fittings. It was her dream to get the regional dress of her relatives, the Delsbo Drakt. This past May, she ran the Stockholm marathon and had her last fitting, so now it was time to throw a big party--and that is what she did. So, she invited 300 of her closest friends, had a feast in her yard with live accordian music, and had a grand time at a reception for her dress. Here are a few pictures.

Is Sweden where you served your mission? That looks like it was a fun party, and the food looks yummy too!

Fun. I wish I had a few hundred close friends! Oh and multiple trips to Sweden would be good too.

It was great running into you while we were in UT.
