Gingham? Check!

I'm sorry, I couldn't resist the pun.. Hi, I'm Abby-have we met? ha!

So, remember the long weekend with the Fam? Three glorious days of a house extra-full of love, this Mama getting to shut the door while Nature Called, AND putting together Put-Together Outfits (instead of wkout pants and a T...you know, like I'm...wearing....right....now.... sigh ;)

Well, here was my Day Two of  "Hi, I"m actually not afraid to be seen by the masses!" Outfit!

Because..you know..a Mama has to make time to casually lean
against a house now and then..dontcha think? ;)
 (btw, by a show of hands...who else is squinting due to the glaring brightness that is our Desert Sun? I promise you I'm not scowling...I'm just trying not to have my eyes scorched ha!)


There..how 'bout that..better?..except now it looks as if I have no feet!

I don't get That Face (the-I'm-about-to-fall-off-so-hurry-take-the-picture-face)
But, at least you can see the outfit, yes?
So, in growing my hair out I have been trying different ways to style it (After almost a decade of having a short cut..I'm outta practice!)

SO here is my attempt to make a Pony more interesting: a little bit teased and side swept in the front...

Annnnd a double Pony in the back...so I can see a bit of tweaking probably needs to be done. But overall I think I like it! Thoughts? Suggestions? I'm allllllll ears!

And, here's my outfit in The Real World (because, I only have so much time (all of 3 minutes, maybe?) to play Pretend Model (haha!)
Juggling Sippy Cup, Coffee Cup and amusing This Little Girl :)



My Son, loving Nature!
And there you have it folks!
