This weekend was a blast.
We spent Saturday celebrating my big brother Cory's 30th birthday.
He had decided he wanted to celebrate at Hollywood Casino in Lawrenceburg, Indiana.
Friends and family checked in around 4 pm then headed to The Final Cut, the steakhouse inside the casino.
The food was uh-mazing!
After eating way too much we hopped on a party bus filled with an insane amount of booze.
The destination was Mt Adams.
We visited Mt Adams Tavern to see our favorite bartender (Cory's friend since elementary).
After we stopped in another bar then jumped back on the bus and headed back to the casino.
I'm not much of a gambler so once back I just watched everyone else gamble away {maybe win} their money.
Although I did try my hand at the slots ... I can see why people get addicted.
Overall it was one of the best weekends and I'm so happy I was able to celebrate with my brother.
And a huge thank you to Sara {Cory's wonderful gf} and Mr & Mrs Dreier for putting together the festivities!

30 is the new 20, unless your 20, then it's the new 40.


Happy 30th Birthday to one of the best big brothers a girl could ask for!
Can't wait to celebrate this weekend!

Sabrina Soto & Target

"The Golden Days décor collection is all about feminine details and dramatic patterns. Stripes and florals meet pastels and prints to create a modern French connection."




 Shop the Hue Collection
"Textures abound and prints are plentiful in the Hue décor collection. Add a splash of color with accessories saturated with beautiful and bold shades sure to cause a double take or two."




"The great thing about this décor collection is how easily it can integrate into your personal style. Playing with geometric detailing and ikat patterns, these eclectic accessories add eye-catching appeal."


I'm a huge fan of Target and my love grew even more after I was in there this weekend.
I stumbled upon three new collections that are absolutely amazing and have a little something for everyone.
Sabrina Soto, has always been one of my favorite HGTV host. Especially with her new show The High/Low Project. 
If you haven't seen it I definitely recommend catching an episode ... or four.
She gives clients the dream room, first on a never ending budget then gives them an identical version but on the budget they can actually afford. What helps her accomplish this is heading to Target. She finds key pieces that are exact matches to the high-end version.
I'm sure these new lines will be popping up on new episodes
.
So go check out the items above {and more} from these stunning new lines here.
