A Stowaway

I found a stowaway post from my trip down to my family's restaurant/hotel. You can see this outfit a bit in the Konsbruck post that I originally made -- but I had overlooked the outfit photos that we took in the pretty commons area between the 5 rooms.

True, this is not a 30-for-30 either, but I do have 3 more installments ready to go...I will finish this challenge yet!

excuse the muddy boots -- it's early spring!

Famous Amos

** Warning: The post you are about to read includes materials not part of the 30-for-30 challenge. Some forgiveness is recommended **

This year, for Valentine's Day, Peanut gifted me with tickets to see one of my most favorite musicians, Amos Lee. Not only did P get me tix -- he got us seats in the second row! I was so excited about this event {and rightfully so, it was an amazing night}.{I got this comfy Mata Traders skirt and this awesome waist-length pea coat at the Electric Fetus on clearance recently. Between the two, I spent $35 and saved almost $100 off the original prices! Bliss.}

tank: Old Navy, cardigan: Mossimo, skirt: Mata Traders, leggings & boots: Target, leaf earrings: Forever21, navy peacoat: Tulle.

...the gorgeous State Theatre... !so close! -- we were practically bumping elbies with the man himself. ...' twas a mighty good one...

Home, Suite, 'Sarah'

In my last post, I made mention of the super cool place I got to take my photos in. Allow me to unveil the mystery locale.

A little over a month ago, my mom & her husband opened a restaurant in my hometown. This fabulous space where they run their fabulous new business, also has 5 rooms above it. Those sweet folks decided to rent out these suites and name them after their 5 daughters. Not only did I get to eat amazing meals + frolic at the amazing bar that my mom and stepdad own & operate {a total trip in and of itself}, I also go to stay in a gorgeous room...named after me!

Here's a mini-tour...

{the name of the owners/original hotel building is on the doors & bar}

my room is pink {my favorite color} it was formerly called the Summer Room

I am so proud of my mom and Tony for accomplishing this big undertaking and chasing their dreams. You can see the menus here and gorgeous shots of the 4 other hotel rooms here.

in this spacce {one of the two bathroom areas in the room}, there is a flat screen tv on the wall, a fireplace and a jetted heavenly tub

Half way -- half way! Hooray! This was a last-minute scramble combo in packing for a fabulous visit home {more details/photos/post to follow on that subject}. It was a super comfy outfit; great for the car ride, dinner, and general gallivanting. Thanks, 30-for-30! :)

Isn't this room {or the one wall of it that you can see here} dreamy? I can't wait to tell you all where/what it is!

I'm back! It has been such a whirlwind since I started this challenge a month and a half ago. I am ready to finish it and move on with my bloggin' life!

It's about to storm here. They're talking in legend talk right now. I've heard everything from 8"-25" and crazy, crazy wind. I will have to dress warmer tomorrow.
