LUNA'S LOVES

Andrew and I celebrated 4 years of marriage and we decided to spend it in Salida, Colorado at the Amigo Motor Lodge. This was the fist trip we did without our daughter, but it was a perfect place to unwind and dream of what we want our marriage to look like for the years to come. Salida is a small, slow moving town, which allowed us to unplug for a while. We brought several books and spent most of our quiet mornings doing nothing- that's a luxury that we don't see as often anymore.
My Advice?  Take advantage of the slow paced life, spend some time wandering without a phone, go on a hike, and then take a drive to the Mt. Princeton Hot Springs to relax!
We spent an evening going to The Mt. Princeton Hot Springs near Buena Vista, which is about 20 minutes away from Amigo. After having dinner in Buena Vista, we concluded that Salida has the best food. Don't make the mistake we made by thinking mountain people know how to make sushi. Never again.

Where To Eat: 
  • Amica's Pizza- We went twice it was so good!
  • Sweeties Sandwhich Shop
  • 50 Burger- Get the milkshake and fries to split, you'll thank me later.
  • Little Red Hen Bakery- go for breakfast and a enjoy with a cup of coffee.
  • The Fritz
  • Hubbub Brewing
 Where To Shop:

  • Howl Mercantile -it also has delicious coffee so bring a book and stay a while
  • Opal Boutique
  • YOLO Clothing Company
  • Ruby Blues- Best Vintage shop with the cutest worn-out tees, and great choice of records
  • Faye and May

In early March, I celebrated my 5th year in being in Colorado. In all honesty, I never thought I would be here that long; especially, married with a child. I was only 20 when I moved away from Dallas, and it turns out, 5 years is a lot of growing. My plan was to stick it out 2 years and move back. There is so much life and wonderful surprises that happened in these 5 years, and I am so grateful for what I've learned. Here are a few I want to share with you. 
  1. Time is a choice. I used to think that "I didn't have enough time" and my days were trying to fit all the things I need to get done in a day. I started to shift my thinking to "I didn't make time." The most successful people in the world have the same amount of time in a day that I do, but the way we are choosing to spend it is vastly different. 
  2. You can do anything, but not everything. There are things that I have the capabilities of doing but they take so much from me because they aren't what I'm gifted in. On the other hand, I would run into people who were in their "sweet spot" in things that just drained me. Find out what you are good at, do that, and delegate the rest. 
  3. Creativity is a muscle. Use it, stretch it, grow it, and learn from it. As much as I would love to have the first thing I create the best masterpiece there ever was, it's just not like that. I might write a thousands songs before one is good. Or come up with a hundred bad ideas before one will be brilliant. But it doesn't mean I should stop, it just means I should keep creating.
  4. Honor your limits. Limits change within different seasons of your life, and mine changed drastically after having my daughter. Things that are good in one season may not be good for the next. And that's completely okay! 
  5. You don't need to learn the hard way. Things that I fight for in my life will be freedoms that my daughter will benefit from in her life. She doesn't need to go throw the same stuff I go through. My life is an example that she can learn from. It's a lie to believe that you have to learn the hard way- that is an unnecessary struggle. 
Outfit Details: Jeans- Anthropologie  // Boots (old) - BCBG // Top- Madewell // Jacket (old)- Banana Republic
