Parks

City parks are such a gift.  I really enjoy discovering new parks in Lincoln.  There are so many!


As I'm writing over at my fashion blog "Fashionably Learning" - over the weekend we discovered the lovely Pioneer Nature center park.  It is in West Lincoln.  They have amazing pillars that look like an ancient ruin.  Apparently they were part of the Federal Reserve Building that was in Washington D.C. while Abraham Lincoln was president! He gave speeches during the civil war standing right next to those columns. 

I wore a Zara dress,  black Simply Vera leggings, and a black Mossimo shirt for the visit.

Our puppy Pistol decided she wanted to be in a few of the pictures :o).

Teacup pigs



I discovered these teacup pigs on a pretty awesome blog I discovered.  She's actually based in Kansas City, my hometown of sorts.  I consider Shawnee a suburb of Kansas City...so I'll claim it ;).

I have new had my dose of cute for the day!

Ready for Summer


 I am SO read for summer to be here.  I have been listening to Noche Nada by the Givers a lot lately.  For some reason it takes me to warm summer days spent outside!


I am also considering buying a hammock, and trying to build a holder for it.  Or perhaps sweetly asking my husband to help me build one.  I'm handy!

I love the one Aura Joon has that you can see here.  The picture below is one from her blog.


I'm considering buying this model available on Amazon.com here from Hammocks Rada - Handmade Yucatan Hammock - Matrimonial Size Natural Color.  It's only $63.99, which seems to be a good deal.                                             Hammocks Rada- Handmade Yucatan Hammock - Matrimonial Size Natural Color - Holiday Promotion- Makes a Great Gift!
