The Space in Between

The week between Christmas and New Years is always a nice time. It's not very busy but it's still considered 'the holidays' so it's okay to be a little lazy, and it's a good time to try to get things done before the year is officially over. This year I had to go back to work this week, (1 day down, 2 to go!) but I'm still trying to accomplish some things over this short period of time, like think of my New Year's Resolutions. It seems like an easy task, but I really want to come up with some concrete resolutions that I'll be able to (and actually want to) follow. One of them will probably be something to do with this blog, like figure out what it's all about and why I'm writing it, and then maybe actually write on it...

In the meantime, here's a couple of photos that I took with Matt on our Adventure Day that I never posted (since I haven't been able to take any in ages - it's a dark, wet winter in Vancouver).

Searching for the Sasquatch

I can't believe I forgot to post this video! I am so excited about it because I love when Matt makes little videos of our adventures! Even if I do look a little ridiculous...

Just as Photogenic as an Eagle...

On Saturday, Matt and I had an Adventure Day! We took so many photos! I love it when Matt makes me look pretty in pics, but it's so hard to choose which photos to use!


I'm wearing (bottom to top): boots (old) - Sterling, tights - American Apparel, Byrne handbag - Matt & Nat, top and pocket watch necklace - Ruche, sweater - Barefoot Contessa, and jacket - Modcloth.

Adventure Day

Yesterday Matt and I were finally able to have a fun day where we went on an outing, just the two of us. We've been so busy since we got back from our world travels that we haven't really had a chance to do anything like this, and it's the kind of thing that will keep us from missing the times we had, so we need it! We drove out to Harrison Mills and the community of Kilby to check out a small Christmas store out there. It was a cute shop but unfortunately I didn't see anything that really stood out. Down the road was a nice park and campground right on the river, Kilby Provincial Park. There was actually a sandy beach (well as sandy as a beach can be in Canada) and I'm excited to go back there in the summer.

This weekend was the Fraser Valley Eagle Festival so people were out in full force with nice cameras and extra long lenses and binoculars, all hoping to get a nice view of the eagles. Meanwhile, Matt and I were there making a video of our adventure and taking pictures of me (my first outfit posts coming soon, so exciting!), I noticed a few stares but we just ignored them, because we were having fun.
Later we drove out to Harrison. It was a really cold day, so we walked along the beach a bit, went searching for the Sasquatch, and had a nice lunch in a yummy cafe. Check back soon for a video of our adventure made by my amazing bf!
