bae bae tiff

Here they are! Some of the pictures from when Tiff and I hung out a few weeks ago! It was such a fun time, so many laughs! And when we were out there I kept saying "we should check for ticks!" and I would get her to check me and everything, and she was kinda getting annoyed... Hehe, but later on that evening it was her that had a tick in her hair, not me. (but i mean, laying in the grass probably didn't help)
Love you Tiff, thanks for letting me take photos of you all the time!

recent things

This song is amazing. It's definitely one of my favourites from Steffany's album "The Undoing", this one and Cecie's Lullaby (which is also a song i encourage you to take a listen to!).  I just figured i would upload it so you could have something lovely to listen to while reading!

So a fair bit has happened since i last updated you guys! One of the bigger events that's occurred since last time is- reading week! It was from February 14th-22nd, and it was lovely. When you think "I can't wait, a week off school! I'm gonna get so much done!" you're actually being super naive. And that was me. I had quite a bit planned for myself: school work, house work, etc... but i basically watched a lot of TV shows, and thats kind of it. BUT on the 20th we went down to Vancouver!!! (I should also mention that this was my very first time going to Vancouver!) It was a blast! We drove down super early on the Friday, cause my dad had meetings in Abbotsford, then we went to Vancouver in the afternoon! We went to Granville Island, got to go on a cute little ferry, drove kind of through Stanley Park, did a hike and saw the ocean at Lighthouse Park, got to see some family friends, and ended off the trip going to IKEA! 

Oh, but wait- theres more! (this is the exciting news that i mentioned at the bottom of my last post) To really end off the trip with a bang we went down to Surrey and picked up... MY NEW CAMERA!! I'm super excited about it! We purchased the body of a year old Canon 5D Mark iii! We had our Canon Rebel for a year and a half, and we'll still keep it so Jeff can use it! This way, when we go hiking, we can both carry a camera! Anyways, I'm totally in love with the new camera. Its super lovely! I took some photos of my sister Tiffany this past week (she came up to visit- YAY!), to get some practice with the camera, and they turned out really great; so I'll try to post them here asap! Oh and yesterday I also took some photos of my friend Megan! So i'll try to get to that yet too i suppose!

Life's been kinda crazy with school, practicum, and everything in between- but me and Jeff have been so happy. Oh, and the other weekend we went up to a place called "Blind Bay" and got me a kayak! It's super lovely and it's blue! (which was what i wanted! hehe) But that's basically all that's new lately! I've actually been adding to this post here and there, so thats why it spans from reading week to now.

Well, happy spring and i'll try to post some more photos soon!! 

Here are some photos from Vancouver, and the hike we did before we picked up the kayak!

P.S. most of these pictures were taken with my old camera, minus the last three. xo
