There’s going to be a giveaway at the end of this post. But first let me show you this beautiful garden we visited this weekend.

On our way to a wedding, we drove past this neighborhood and it had this gorgeous garden and waterfall right at the entrance.


These colorful flowers lined a walking path that lead around the gardens.

After the wedding, we spent a good part of the afternoon just taking in this peaceful place.

And since we were all dressed up, I figured I’d better document it. ;)

I did have a hard time walking around in those heels though. ;)
