Today marks four years since the bright, sunny day on which Peter and I got married. While four years is not a monumental anniversary, it is one that deserves to be celebrated. Because I think our marriage deserves to be celebrated. It has been four good years. Four years of getting to know each other… Continue reading Four
There is a magic that exists in the form of a snowy day. In that first moment after you wake up and you look out the window to see a world transformed. A world fresh and cleansed. Neither Peter nor I actually had a snow day but we enjoyed our snowy day nonetheless. The schools… Continue reading The Light of the World is Here
After taking my camera everywhere for a month, packing it with me on trains, subways, mountain trails, and through museums, I guess I needed a break. September 2013 will remain without much photographic evidence in our household. That's okay. Sometimes it's nice to just look at things and remember them that way. This weekend though,… Continue reading Thankful
Summertime on the Sunshine Coast is an especially wonderful time. The days are long and bright, the water is warm(er) but always refreshing, and there is always something to do outside. From kayaking and mountain biking to sitting on your own or someone else's deck and drinking a cold beer. I honestly feel a little… Continue reading Summer’s Still Here
Today marks three years since our wedding day. Let's be real - three years is not that many to be married. It's long enough that 99% of the time I think of myself by my married name now (Although, apparently, not quite long enough that I've changed all my documentation over to it. Oops.) But,… Continue reading Three
Another sign of spring around here? Low tide. And I mean looowww tide. A tide so low I could practically walk to the general store from our house (which is located across the bay from us). It gives us a much larger front yard to explore. And underwater treasures to be discovered... The rocky island… Continue reading A Walk at Low Tide
Porpoises chasing a school of fish past the house. As we were getting ready for church Sunday morning I hear my brother-in-law yelling, "Porpoises! There's porpoises out front!" and we all rushed to the front windows. (Yes, we live in the same town as my in-laws and yes, we stayed the weekend with them for… Continue reading What Easter Looked Like
Smuggler Cove is a short hike through a provincial park, about ten minutes away from us. Peter and I hiked through the park about two years ago and went back again on Saturday to enjoy a gorgeous day of sunshine. The path starts out rough but groomed with boardwalks taking you across the marshy sections.… Continue reading Smuggler Cove Hike
When you think Spring Break, you generally think "beach", right? Me too. However, that's not what my spring break vacation looked like this year. Pictured below: Spring Break 2013 Peter and I snuck away for a few days in Whistler. You might know it as the ski resort town that hosted the 2010 Olympics. You… Continue reading Snow and Sunshine – Spring Break 2013
Like I mentioned in my previous post, I went shopping last weekend. It was the first time I've done a lot of shopping in a while and I wanted to share some of it with you. So I took this picture: But man, that's boring. That's just some clothes on a bed. And that t-shirt… Continue reading Fashion Blogger Fail
