This weekend we had Vikingating (I don't know how to write that in english, but it's kind of a gathering of vikings). Down by Byälven a whole village of Vikings and knights are built and medieval markets are held. This year they even had a wedding.
Most of the village, the museum and other things around this place stays all year around. (Read my earlier post about the museum and Glad of Gillberga
here>>)
Here is an explosion of photos from this event.
At the market you could buy your own outfit.
In the village
Many of the persons, vikings, have been living here several weeks, some of them the whole summer to fix everything.
The trousseau
This is like a labyrinth, called Stendansen (stone and dance, stonedance)
The bride, bridegroom and their follow on the way to Stonedance for the first part of the cermony.
Walking to the place for the actual wedding.

The runestone, made by hand. They laid the last hand on it at saturday.
If you break the law, then this is the punishment. Beeing stuck in this thing...
Last, but not least, there where a big field filled with old games. The kids loved it!
There were so much more. Tournaments and other activities... I can't show you all of it, I did'nt even see all of it myself. =)
My world Tuesday
Shadow Shot Sunday
The only thing I did was to choose colours and then changed the nuance of the colour... Easy but pretty nice results I think...

Plättar eller Pannkakor var det enda självklara valet för min sexåring... Det är hans favoritmat!
Min lilla dotter, som är en spindelmannenPrinsessa om man får tro henne själv, ansåg att Pärlor var det naturliga valet.
Medan min snart femåriga son tyckte att jag skulle välja Prydnadssaker.
This week my little angel, my little number six, my darling babyboy turned one. We started the morning by giving him his birthdaygifts.
Then he helped his mom doing the dishes after making a birthdaycake.
Filled with strawberries and white cream at the top. Tasted lovely!
Big boys cuts their cake by themselves. Right?
After a long, happy day my little princess put her little brother to bed. Are'nt they adorable?
