the opera?! I had no idea... was it an official event or a private family celebration?
from the little I can see of Madeleine´s outfit, it looks like the same she wore at the "youth party" at Vega two night before Frederiks and Marys wedding

Yes, you are probably right...I guess her top in the opera is a different (more conservative) one.
Hm, Victoria is here again the outstanding "colour spot" in the picture.
 
Here are some more pictures from King Carl XVI Gustaf's 59th birthday last Saturday, 30 April, at the Royal Palace in Stockholm. These are from the Defence:

Madeline looks great!! I don´t like Victoria outfit: it was too shine and pink, and her mommy and sis wear white...sadly she doesn´t look very well.
Carl Philip is beutiful (and hot), and looks gourgeos with that uniform
The Queen was smart, as always

Yes...but I STILL think Carl Philip needs a haircut!...:D
 
Well, it´s his birthday tomorrow! Maybe you should get some hair stylists to steal him away from his studies and take him to a salon!:)

King Carl Gustaf's 62nd Birthday: April 30, 2008

King Carl Gustaf celebrates his 62th birthday today:

Stor dramatik då kungen firades på borggården - Svensk Damtidning
Princess Lilian joined the royal family at the balcony. She didn´t have a hat and her white hair glew at the sun. It was very warm, and maybe because of that the princess felt herself weak, she almost fainted and queen Silvia took her to the room behind the balcony to rest. A doctor examined her and the Director of the Information and Press Department, Nina Eldh, said that it wasn´t anything serious, the princess just had had a little bit too much sun.

It is lovely to see Princess Lilian again. Crown Princess Victoria's hair looked nice today. Happy Birthday King Carl Gustaf!
 
Great pictures!!! Was all of this on the occasion of the King's birthday? The kids dressed up in costumes are so sweet!! Victoria seemed to be a bit serious to me!
 
Happy Birthday to the king! The entire family looked good especially Victoria with her hair down! Hope all is well with Princess Lilian.
 
well it might have been because of the heat. My hunch says Princess Lillian has low blood pressure as many elderly people do. The heat lowered her already low blood pressure and so she felt weak until she sat. I'll bet she is fine and as long as she takes it somewhat easy she will stay that way for a few more years.

Princess Lilian may or may not have low blood pressure. Let's not speculate about her health especially since a statement was made saying that it was nothing serious.:flowers:
 
I wasn't trying to speculate or make it into anything. I was trying to say its common for old people to get like that and its nothing big.
 
Wow wow photo on Princess Lilian with royal family!!! She is pretty aunt and elegant dress!! Princess Lilian is love royal family and Queen Silvia. Queen Silvia and Princess Lilian is much near ladies.
 
It is great to see Lialian again!
Happy birthday Your majesty!

Okay but let's not assume or have hunches concerning her health. Let's move on.
 
Does anyone know if they did anything else besides the usually official celebration? Does his siblings celebrate his birthday or make a special visit for the occasion?
 
King Carl Gustaf's 63rd Birthday: April 30, 2009

King Carl Gustaf is celebrating his 63rd birthday today.
Daniel wasn´t present at the official celebrations, nor was Carl Philip. The latter one is probably off to prepare for the start of the racing season.
Daniel isn´t supposed to be part of official duties (I guess this isn´t completely strictly handled though)
I can see the idea behind this move (loooong engagement time needs special PR moves), but as it seems many are upset and put it, as if the king doesn´t wanna have Daniel at his birthday celebrations.
Madeleine´s doggy Zorro was also there ;)

I love the photo of the little boy handing him the flowers! It looked like a lovely day for a birthday celebration.
