On the weekend it was All Saints Day, and I know that traditions around this day vary widely across different countries. In Sweden, families honour their lost ones by visiting cemeteries, decorating the graves and lighting candles.
My Mum sent me these photos from back home. I found them so beautiful. The atmosphere is somber and serene, but communal, and the whole cemetery is glowing and peaceful.

I was so happy that Dad's headstone was done so fast so that it was in place for this holiday. Mum had tended to his resting place, brought a lantern and planted some winter flowers, it really looks beautiful. ❤️
