Let's Venture Together: Memorial Hermann Park

Although Houston is not known for its natural beauty, the city has a gorgeous park that is just simply alluring on days like this and I couldn't resist. A friend and I wandered around the park taking selfies, staring at random people, and all around acting like goofs. It was the best. Sometimes you just need a change of scenery and the most simple of things, like a day in the park, to hit the spot. Here are some lovely shots from our adventure. Enjoy!

Must get that OOTD in

The contemplative bench


The walkways and bridges here are gorgeous


Look at that sky. Its practically begging you to be outdoors
We fed ducks. Because we secretly believe we're twelve. Who cares.


Yes we're cute. I know. (Just kidding)
Who doesn't love cotton candy? Definitely not me!

Korean selfie for the win!

I may not look like a model but I definitely felt like one in this pic

Okay this sign made absolutely no sense. If I wasn't born yesterday or going to die tomorrow I'm not allowed to swim??
Memorial Hermann at its finest

A shameless selfie







The cotton candy must be eaten

A squirrel stole some of my cotton candy. Then I chased him. And of course no one stared 

Look at him. Cool as a nut. Eating my cotton candy. How rude.

Why squirrel why.

Apparently beavers broke into the park and built a dam when we weren't looking. Just kidding. I have no idea what this is.
Excuse the hair. I forgot to care.

Inside the Japanese Garden



Another touching tree photo. Because that's just how we roll.

King of the world!

A picture of serenity

Hope you enjoyed these pictures an whenever you find yourself with a gorgeous day with nothing to do take yourself to your local park. You might just be surprised what you find!

Castles, castles, and more castles

So if you know anything about me you know that I love Ireland. I mean I LOVE Ireland. There's just something that's absolutely mesmerizing about that country. Not only do they boast some of the most beautiful landscape in the world, they produce some truly beautiful people (hello Catherine Zeta Jones), house my favorite author, AND could potentially have fairies. Enough said. On top of that they have castles. Absolutely gorgeous castles. More on the other awesome aspects of Ireland but today let's look at some of the beautiful castles of Ireland.

Kylemore Abbey
Hilton Park
Waterford Castle
Hillsborough Castle
Markree Castle


These are just a top few of my favorites but, seriously, how amazing would it be to live in a beautiful castle like this? It would be like my little Downton Dream. Enjoy!
