Lest you think that our entire trip was spent laying around on country porches, here are a few photos from our day trip into Birmingham. This is the city where I was born and raised and it's always a treat to come back to visit. Our first stop upon arrival was the Birmingham Botanical Gardens. The rose garden was in full bloom! It was a truly hot southern day with temperatures in the 90s. I'm not used to that anymore so I pretty much felt like I was melting the whole time.

No trip to B'ham is complete without a stop at The Garage. We're usually there at night to sit in the beer garden and drink a few Hoegaardens but this time we sat in the air conditioning to enjoy our sandwiches and sodas. After lunch we headed over to the Civil Rights Museum which doesn't allow any photography so I don't have any photos to show you, but it's definitely worth a stop if you're ever in town.

Pretty!
Is that dress from this year? I have on that is very similar from last spring, it's my favorite dress ever! Yours looks to be a bi longer though, which I like. Not like I can get one, cause we have no H&M here, haha.
Oh, I cannot WAIT until the roses are in bloom here. LOVELY dress!!
I just love botanical gardens! You look gorgeous and I love that purse!
beautiful dress! I love H&M
gosh, this makes me want to ditch cali and move down south. everything is so beautiful and antique-ified. That dress is perfect for your surroundings.
with love,

These photos are lovely as usual. Lounging around on porches is pretty ideal, so I wouldn't blame you if that was all you did! Your trip to Birmingham sounds/looks like a great time. Nice to see a Nehi photo too :)
that dress looks so natural on you, especially against your lovely red hair. oh those flowers! they're just amazing. i'm majorly photo-swooning.

Beautiful pictures, especially of you among the flowers. I love the dress.

That bridge is gorgeous, as are you as always, and the dress you are wearing.
Wow, so weird, we have a Birmingham Botanical Gardens here in Birmingham, England!
LOL Drinking Belgian beers, another sign of good taste! ;)
Awe! I live in Birmingham! I LOVE the gardens and The Garage! The Garage is such a cool place to hang out! I'm glad you got to come back and enjoy the city :)
ooh, i have this dress as well. i bought it for a spring wedding last week and i love how airy it is. perfect summer dress. one thing i like about h&m is that its mostly the same wherever you go, i bought the dress in budapest and here you are wearing it in america. so cool. very nice shots.
