My parents’ yard is just gorgeous. I love the brilliant flowers and the spreading trees. And don’t my dad’s hands look absolutely perfect holding Aveline?
How about a pretty little textile roundup for your middle-of-the-week viewing pleasure?

I’ve been drawn to this color lately. It keeps popping up all over the place, from a corugated iron church in the hills of Scotland to chevron-patterned textiles.

have you heard of pinterest? i love it — it’s a fabulous virtual pinboard which allows you to easily save inspiring images from any webpage. the best part about it, in my opinion, is that it saves the source of the image, so when you look back through your pins & boards, you always know where you found any particular image. it’s also ridiculously easy to use. when you’re on a webpage with an image you want to save, simply click the ‘pin it’ bookmarklet on your toolbar. pinterest then pulls up all the images on that page, and all you have to do is click on the one you want to save, choosing which of your boards you want to pin it on.
i thought i’d share a few photos from one of my pinterest boards.

i love the wind — the summer wind — blowing through the leaves and the tall grass.
forgive me, midwestern family. i don’t believe you yet have properly fluttering leaves. that’s just wrong. so while you’re waiting for old man winter to finally get his grubby hands off the world, check out these latest high summer (doesn’t that sound exhilarating?) images from toast.
meanwhile, i’m off to shower and generally get ready for the day, as my tiny person has finally succumbed to mid-morning sleepiness. after a rough couple of days, this week is already unfolding with promise. i look forward to seeing (and blogging!) what it holds.

i love this living room, from the IKEA family live spring 2011 magazine. like, really really love. that’s a whole lot of happy.
