Today we took pictures in our "secret place." Well, that's what Sean called it at least. It's just a little railroad trestle alongside a local park. It's got a cute little stream (or sewage run-off according to Curtis) and cool graffiti. Sean felt like we were on a real adventure. It's pretty perilous, and once you get back there, it is very secretive.
Of course, with the amount of spray-painting, it's clearly not somewhere only we know. More than likely it's a local hang out for druggies and sexual delinquents. That's cool. But for a little while I can hum along to Keane and imagine that I am in a magical music video. Not the best "Music Video Babe" outfit, but you can't win 'em all, I guess!

If you aren't familiar with this song, "Somewhere Only We Know" by Keane (it's super old), do yourself a favor and listen to it. Pure awesomeness!

Your son is absolutely adorable! He has the best smile :)
Yellow is lovely on you :)
This does look like a place where they'd shoot music videos...haha. You always have the best photo locations. Your son is a super star model just like his mom!

It's so cute that you and Sean are wearing outfits in the same color palette! I love that Kean song and now it's playing in my head (because I can't play the video at work).

Love your "secret" place! And I totally laughed when you said it's probably a place for druggies and sexual delinquents, ha. Your wedges are super cute and I love that skirt!

I love it too! It's one of my favorites! And thank you and thank you!
Well, it's probably true. I knew it wasn't too secretive since it's covered in grafitti! Yuck! I don't even want to imagine ;)
I promise it was an accident! We are doing it again today! We are both in green and white:)
I can't play the video at work either- dumb filters!
I love painted walls- even illegally painted one :) There's a town about four hours north of me filled with murals. I wish it were closer so I could road trip and take pictures there!
Awww, thank you so much! He is my mini-me!
your son is so cute! i love finding cool places- great outfit combination and music too- i love the sea - its my place and i'm lucky to only be 30 minutes away- i am moody and wistful there- like a bad 80's video! x
That must be your son! He's so cute and looks just like you! ;-)
He does, bless his heart! My little mini-me :) Thank you so much!
I love the pops of yellow! This song always makes me on the verge of crying. I don't know why though...is that weird? I think it might have been the mixture of it on glee/winnie the pooh previews.

Every time you wear those yellow shoes I become more and more convinced that every woman needs a pair of sunny yellow shoes! :) Great photo backdrop. :)

I'm pretty convinced too! They are such a great pop of color.
And thank you- I really like this spot. I'll be back!
I love them too :) And thank you- I think blue and yellow might really be my favorite combo- it's so cheerful!
Jealous!
Oh, I completely understand this song making you want to cry- I kinda feel the same way.
I love scouting out locations. It's so fun! Man I wish we lived that close to the sea. WE are about 6 hours from the Gulf of Mexico, but that's not exactly a day trip.
Your sea reminds me of James Blunt's video "Beautiful" for some reason!
I love this song! I love every Keane song actually.
You look so pretty in these colors, and I love this "secret" photo location. Sean is darling :)
I love Keane so much! The song "Is It Any Wonder?" is one of my most favorite songs of all-time.
Sean keeps asking when we are going to go back to his secret place for pictures... he's going to take over my blog ;)
Hahaha, I like your "secret" place! It makes for a great backdrop for your photos. You are looking beautiful as always :)
