Told @jadea_lee after my wedding this morning I would take the rest of the afternoon off to do whatever summer activity she wanted as I've been gone so much this summer! Blackberry picking, good music and a summer breeze. Couldn't ask for a better day, or a better little sister ! Here's to an afternoon sipping blackberry margaritas on the back deck!

I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practise resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms... Henry David Thoreau (at Redwood National and State Parks (NPS))

If everyone started to give more we would get more 🌸 . Spent my morning with my love wandering the river bed picking wildflowers for his Mom. So thankful for this weekend and the time spent with family. @bangsshoes #bangsshoes #bangsblitz (at Terrace, British Columbia)

Drove all over Iceland with only the gps coordinates from an outdated blog for this hot pot. Drove up a mountain, through the cloud and back down. With rain falling all around us and epic adventure music playing in the background we finally happened about it. And at it was everything I had dreamed of. These little moment they make like so worth living. #chaseyourdreams #dreamingofhotpots

Six years side by side. Six years of ups and downs. Six years of globe trotting, adventures, hiking to mountain tops. Happy six year anniversary Jordan, my love🌿 . Jordan and I will be the first to tell you a relationship isn't easy. There are good days, and bad, heart break and love, there are questions and fights and holding each other while you cry. However in a world where everything is disposable; a world where values have been compromised; a world where instant satisfaction trumps all, holding onto that core belief that if two people truly love one another they can get through any hurtle together is the most powerful gift there is. . There have been times in six years we have struggled. We both work to many hours; lead very busy social lives, travel often, and truly do have every excuse all couples have. But standing here today I can honestly say we deserve this love, we have worked tirelessly to grow together, evolve together, and support one another through their lows. We have never fallen out of love at the same time, one of us is always there to pick the other up, twirl them around the kitchen and kiss them until they remember the magic we have. . We have shared some of the most breath taking views together around this world. We have laughed until our sides hurt, hiked until our feet hurt, smooched until our lips hurt. We have had some of the highest of highs staring at some of the most epic sunsets. Shared some of the most serial of moments and I honestly couldn't imagine what this life would be without you. . Six years seems to short for all we have been through, yet at the same times feels like my entire life. Who we were when we first met all those days ago is like a distant memory of a different life. We have truly grown up with one another, become adults, built a life, a home, a fur family. So here's to us, proving if you want something enough nothing can take it away from you. Here's to all our hard work, and holding each other's hands along the way. Here's to you @jordanunrautattooer , and I, and the many more years ahead. 💕💕💕💕💕 @withlove.photography (at Nanoose Bay Succulents)

'I offer you peace.I offer you love.I offer you friendship.I see your beauty.I hear your need.I feel your feelings.' . . To you my friend; we have been through it all. We've loved one another, hurt one another, held each other while we cried. We've spend every moment together, not spoken for years, slept snuggled in one another's arms. You have been my best friend, my worst enemy, and truly are my sister. My love for you is incomparable; for you and I have been through it all. Thank you for these moments, these lessons, this path. 💕 #friendship (at Westfjords)
