The Hills are Alive with Black and White

David recently showed me a little gem of a spot near our home called Love Circle Park.  It's one of the highest points in the city, and it provides a great view of Downtown Nashville.  If you're there all alone you can spin around- arms open- and channel your inner Maria from the Sound of Music.  Though, it is a pretty happening spot, so you're never alone for too long.  I think I got through two rounds of belting out, "The Hills are ALIVE, with the Sound of Music, na nah na na" before we were joined by more pedestrians.  Arms down.  Slowly walk away.  Avoid eye contact.

      Thanks Jessi- I loved all the Merona hats at Target, and couldn't decide, but finally settled on this one. The most neutral- but also the BIGGEST! haha

      Thanks! Hats are so fun, I wish we were back in the day where you have to wear them in public all the time- just to be respectable. ; ) Love you're hat in your latest post on your blog as well! Cheers!

      Thanks so much Cris!!! I know, I always love color on my photos, but when I see other people do black and white, and they do it well, I'm like ooh- so pretty! So I gave it a whirl. Thanks for noticing!
