flashback friday

 Time for a #FBF from our time at the edge of the pond. 

From one side to the other and back again.

 The second leg of our ultimate summer vacation has us picking 
wild strawberries by the sea in Rossö Sweden.

 We have also done our fair share of crab fishing.

 Grilling and feasting.

And many, many games of Kubb.

partying with gramma's

 Lyndale was open for walkers and bikers today for the LynLake street festival 

and we had a lot of fun rockin' out with Gramma's Boyfriend. 

 Anna and Sophia got to meet their first rockstar when Haley Bonar was hanging out after the show.

 Last weekend was a big weekend with our Great Gramma as she celebrated her one hundredth birthday!

 Anna and I had a bit of a disagreement today about great music artists. I said Prince was the greatest frontman that ever lived. "Yes, frontman!" she said, "...but Taylor Swift is the best frontwoman! I suggested that honor would probably go to Beyonce but we agreed to disagree. 

After visiting the memorial at First Avenue we headed out to Paisley Park to hang some signs. 

Anna had written a note thanking Prince for the cool music and Sophia designed a thank you sign from our cousin Priya who is a huge Prince fan but lives out in California.

The amount of people today was staggering but we were treated to some pizza thanks to the Paisley Park staff and we lucked out on our timing as the rain subsided during our visit, only to resume the moment we returned to our car.
