It looks like a nice opportunity for the families to meet informally. What a nice tradition!

 

[H.M. Margrethe]

Like a summer holiday apart?

No it´s like having a summer holiday together away from Denmark.
Queen Margrethe are still having pain in her knee after her operation this summer,and in France she are abel to get som peace an quiet from her job her in Denmark.

Great pictures, thanks to all who posted some. I consider it a good idea to make a photoshoot like this, it doesn't take much time (in televison they said 5 minutes), no questions and great pics - that's quite easy and everybody gets what he or she wants ;-)

 

[Alexandria]

Thank you for the many wonderful pictures from this photoshoot purple_platinum!

Where have all the men gone? No Henrik, Richard or Constantine. And neither are Alexandra and Alexia's husbands present although their kids are there. And don't Pavlos and Marie-Chantal also usually spend some time at Graasten?

I was struck by how beautiful and doll-like Arrietta is in this picture. I bet she'll grow up to be a very classic beauty the way her maternal grandmother Anne Marie is.

I thought that it was interesting that Gustav's girlfriend Carina Axelsson was present. All those years it was publicly known that Frederik and Mary were dating yet we never saw her as part of the Graasten photoshoot. I suppose this means that the family clearly considers her part of their family already to have invited her to be part of this photoshoot.

It looks like a nice little family get-together. But where did the press come up with the number '50'? It looks like only half that number of people are there.
I wonder if part of the reason for the gathering is so Gustav's girlfriend (fiance?) could meet his Danish side of the family before a possible wedding.

 

[loving silvia and carl gustaf]

wow such great pictures of the family, thanks so much for posting them

 

[marezdote]

What wonderful pictures! I wonder why Pavlos, M-C, Nikolas, Phillipos, and Theodora weren't there ( as well as Pavlos and MC's kids)

My two favorite pictures are this one http://s2.supload.com/image.php?get=B290_095807_0007.jpg

and the picture of Mary and baby Carlos. Thanks to all who posted pictures!

Great to see the whole family together. All the children are adorable!

 

[LadyS]

I just love seeing all the family together.
It's interesting to compare the children and see family resemblances and interaction.

 

[H.M. Margrethe]

To all of you who don´t know why Prince Henrik is not a Graasten caste with the rest of the family pleas take a look at poste number 85 ther you will finde the answer to the question.

Does anyone else think Christian is wearing the same hat in that photosession that he wore arriving at Bormholm?

 

[UserDane]

Does anyone else think Christian is wearing the same hat in that photosession that he wore arriving at Bormholm?

Yes, I noticed it - because of the red/pinkish stribes. It's cute.

I Think Christian is soooooooooo cute especially without the hat (Although I do love the hat) will there be anymore pictures?
