Oh em gee. Is it winter already?

Uhmm, autumn, why did you have to leave so soon?!

So, perhaps we didn’t get to completing all of the things we listed on our fall #30photosaseason list. We guess this just means that we’ll have to add more things to our bucket list for next year! Here are a few of our favorite photos that we took this past season:

Some of our Instagram friends joined in on the fun as well! Here is a look into what they captured this fall. Please be sure to say hello and visit each of their beautiful feeds on Instagram too!Next year the pumpkin patch IS happening! Like, for real. Until then, we’re on to a new season…and TA-DA! Here is our Winter 2014 #30photosaseason list! Feel free to join in and tag your photos so we can keep up with your amazing seasonal adventures. Remember that there is no order or set of rules to this fun little project, except to just enjoy each season to the fullest and document it through Instagram by using our hashtag (#30photosaseason)!

What do you plan on doing first?

Our Weekend in Morgantown, WV

6 December, 20146 December, 2014 oursweetsomewhereLeave a comment

While our #adventuresomewhere getaway trip to Morgantown, WV was revitalizing and full of so much joy, it did not last long enough because we are still reminiscing to this day about every little detail! While we were there we met some pretty amazing people, enjoyed some delicious food and beer, and fell in love with the beautiful views that the West Virginian mountains had to offer.

We mentioned previously that we would be staying in downtown Morgantown by using AirBnB, and let us be the first to tell you that this type of experience is totally worth your while! We had the luxury of a private suite which include a kitchenette, bedroom, sitting room, and bathroom. The location was perfect too; located on top of a hill overlooking Morgantown and only a 5 minute drive to the center of town. The price was right, and our hosts were so kind…they literally thought of everything (thanks for the coffee guys)! If you are ever in Morgantown, seriously do yourself a favor and check this place out for your stay.

Staying so close to the heart of the town gave us the opportunity to explore all of the little shops and restaurants that we had planned on visiting…and yes, we went to every single one! We also were able to enjoy a free tour around WVU’s campus by using their adorable transit system, but we won’t mention how we acted like giddy little kids during the entire ride…

Not only did we get to experience a new city together on this weekend getaway, but we also had the chance to catch up as besties; something, it seems as though we never have enough time to do. After having an amazing experience here on our first #adventuresomewhere meet-up, we are so ready and (im)patiently waiting for the next one to happen again soon. There are plenty of cities located in-between us that are just waiting to be explored; and the city that we have in mind for our next getaway is one that we cannot wait to share more details on!

Friday is almost here, and we are less than twelve hours away from our weekend adventure of meeting “half way” in Morgantown, WV! Since choosing this location, we’ve researched a ton of info on the many things to do and places to see in this awesome little-big town from local boutiques and antiques to breweries and state parks. The hard part now is just figuring out how we’ll be able to cram it all into one weekend!

We’ve come up with this Morgantown mood board to help get us inspired even more for our visit to this beautiful city (and maybe inspire you too for your next #adventuresomewhere getaway?)! Is there anything else we should make sure to include in this little corner of the wild and wonderful state of West Virginia? If so, let us know and we will be sure to add it to our ever-growing list!

We’ll be posting snapshots and updates on our travels to Morgantown all weekend through our Instagram and Twitter accounts; be sure to check out our #adventuresomewhere and #30photosaseason tags to see what we’ll be up to next!

In less than a week we will be heading out to meet each other half way between our homes in the wonderful town of Morgantown, WV for our very first #adventuresomewhere getaway! We’ve already created an awesome list of places to see and explore while we’re there, but will save those details for our next post! Until then, please enjoy this mixtape made by yours truly of some of our favorite bluesy-folk-loving-traveling tunes to jam to.

New Things Happening! #adventuresomewhere

We are way excited about this. Like, WAY. We started Our Sweet Somewhere as a place for us to collaborate, create, inspire each other (maybe a few others?), and just let loose as friends. Because our homes are about a six-and-a-half hour drive apart, we don’t get to see each other nearly as much as we would prefer. But one evening during one of our frequent FaceTime dates, we mentioned how amazing it would be if we could meet for a weekend “half way“.

That idea was born, and it is now finally coming to life!

We will be meeting half way, in Morgantown, WV on the weekend of November 8th for our very first #adventuresomewhere getaway! This little-big city looks like it will be the perfect place for us to begin our first of many weekend adventures together. We’ve decided to find a place by using Air B&B, (a first experience for us as well) and will be staying downtown near West Virginia University‘s campus; this will also allow us to be surrounded by all of the awesome university town shops! While in the area, we are hoping to meet up with any local or nearby instagrammers too! Just based off of our research, Morgantown looks like it’ll have some amazing photo-opportunities between downtown Morgantown and the West Virginian mountains. If you’re free on November 8th and are interested in meeting up, please let us know!

In the following weeks before we head out on our trip, we will be sharing some of the things that have inspired us about the city of Morgantown, but would love to hear some of your input too. Please leave us a comment or send us an email if you have any recommendations of places to see or do in this wonderful town!

As always, we cannot wait to share our details on the blog, Instagram , and Twitter accounts.
