All Saints day is a peaceful holiday, no Halloween parties. Today I went to the Stora Tuna church and lit some candles on our loved ones graves. There where a lot of people there and hundreds and thousands of candles were glimmering in the dusk...very beautiful...

Helgad Allhelgona / All Saints Day
Alla helgona helgen är stillsam, inget glammigt Halloween firande. Var till Stora Tuna Kyrka i dag och tände några ljus på våra nära och käras gravar. Det var väldigt mycket folk där och ljusen lyste så vackert i skymningen...

The church is magnificent...it was ment to be a cathedral once...
The entrance was filled with burning candles ..in Swedish it´s called the weapon room, where in the middle ages people had to leave their weapons before they entered the churhroom..no swordfights in front of the altar!...
Kyrkorummet är också mycket vackert..här är det ljuvligt att lyssna till körsång eller musik. Mässor är jag inte så mycket för...
The church inside is also very beautiful...it´s wonderful to listen to choirs and music here...otherwise I´m not much of a church visitor ...
Idag tänker vi på alla dem som inte finns bland oss längre...barnen ville till och med att vi skulle tända ett ljus på vår älsklingskatt Robins grav på ängen...så vi gjorde det. Någonstans däruppe bland stjärnorna på den mörka himmelen tittar de ner på oss...jag tror och hoppas att vi någongång ses igen...
Today we are thinking of our loved ones that are not with us anymore...the children wanted to light a candle at our favourite cat Robins grave on the meadow...so we did that. Somewhere up there amongst the stars on the dark night sky they are looking down on us...I hope and believe that we will meet again somewhere sometime...
I dag vill jag också gratulera mina föräldrar som varit gifta i 50 år den 31/10! Grattis!
Today I also want to congratulate my parents who have been married for 50 years on the 31st of october! Congrats!
Hoppas helgen blir fridfull! Ha det vi ses!
I wish You a peaceful weekend! I´ll see You!

Ja det är vackert med våran tradition. Det är så fint med alla tända ljus, stillheten och alla minnen av släktingen som kommer upp. Kram /linnea-maria

Your parents look so young. It's hard to believe they've been married for 50 years!
