6-26-2010-- I soon put on my capris and a T-shirt to cool down. Returned missionaries and native Swedes and YSA's joined us. There were more of our missionaries there, but we couldn't find them all when for the photoshoot.
It wasn't long before I was hot and sweaty in my dress, but I wasn't the only one there in one. People really keep up their tradition of dress and flowers. We ate a delicious Viking feast after the program. It was most delicious!
On June 26, we attended the Swedish midsommer festival in SLC at the International Peace Gardens. The Maj pole was beautiful, and we danced around it and sang all the traditional songs.
On June 21, all the Sweden mission couples gathered at the Don & Anna Joy Watts home in Centerville for a magnificent traditional Swedish meal and conversation.
Wrights can swing dance. We still need some practice with the line dancing.
Watts supported us with their yummy baked beans and wonderful company.
Rosevears are great sports at the Johnsonfarm Honeyville Barn Dance.
Our Barn made a great place for young people and old alike to have a good time with food and dance on May 8.
Willy Herrey's 80th birthday party on May 13 brought us all to Salt Lake City. Marilyn Pearson, Liz Rosevear, Gerd Herrey, Amy Johnson, Linda Wright and Anna Joy Watts.
Our Swedish Couple, Gerd and Willy Herrey, came to Honeyville for a evening visit. We wanted to keep them! They are heading back to Gotland for a third mission.

The beautiful buckle is added to the collection, making it the 4th straight win for our family in Clarkston.
Family members and Jockey Godfrey paused for photo after the race.
The Godfrey jockeys hand-off the mail pouch from Duke to Gracie as the two horses pass in front of the grandstand. These two awesome horses made two 3 mile track runs each to win First place in the Annual Clarkston City Pony Express Race on 19 June 2010. The horses are owned by Don & Raquel Johnson Fuller of Nibley.
Riley Adamson is home in Sandy. How great it was to see him and his parents who had come to Sweden while we were still in the Mission. We attended his Mission report on 27 June 2010 in Draper.
Elder Christopher Loomis comes home to Blackfoot, Idaho. It was close enough for us to drive up and attend his homecoming. We loved it.
