Midsummer’s Eve
Midsummer is a time of celebration in Sweden. The Saturday closest to the summer solstice is the official holiday Midsummer’s Day, and the day before, Midsummer’s Eve (today!), is for most people a day free from work. Midsummer’s Eve is a day of outdoor partying and traditional activities like raising a maypole and dancing around it. In lieu of bunnies dancing in a ring, I found a picture of two cuties in the green green grass of Summer!

Those two are so cute, the little one snuggling up to it’s big friend!
But if it should be a true Midsummer’s celebration, they really should have wreaths of flowers around their heads (but I guess they would not last for very long if the bunnies found them yummy).

Yes of course! The big black is Midsummer and the little fellow is of course Eve!
If I had a bunny I would love to call it Midsummer (hm, do bunnies come in flower patterns?)

What a sweet picture! I wonder what the little one’s whispering into the bigger one’s ears..

If the big one is Midsummer, and the little one is Midsummer’s Eve, I think the little one says: “Tomorrow, my sister Day will be here”.
Unfortunately, I do not have any pictures of Midsummers’s Day.
