POINT NO POINT


For our two year anniversary, James and I headed west to Point no Point. Even though Point no Point is located just over an hour away from Victoria, you really feel like you're another world away. The resort is made up of private cabins and duplexes. Each building is right on the ocean and each unit has a private hot tub on the deck.

We spent A LOT of time sitting in that hot tub listening to the waves crash on the shore below...ahhhh. We also spent a lot of time eating. Our cabin came with a full kitchen so we brought a good supply of food up. We also spent a lot of time NOT ON OUR PHONES! Point no Point has no wifi or cell phone service...it's kinda surreal. It felt so good to detach and connect with James with no distractions.

We also spent some time filming for James' next song. Check out the sneak peek if you haven't already!

Ahhhh, take me back to Point no Point pleeeeaase!

 

Hope you have fantastic weekend! Mine will be spent running, studying and hanging with friends. I heard it's supposed to be pretty hot, so I'll definitely try to soak up some sun!!!

SNEAK PEEK OF LIIRA'S NEXT SINGLE

A couple weeks back we celebrated two years of marriage at Point no Point. It's an insanely beautiful place and I can't wait to show you pictures of it tomorrow. When we were there we spent one morning filming some scenes for James's music project, LIIRA. The footage turned out reaaaalllly sweet and I cannot wait to watch the whole video and hear the completed song but until then I have a sneak peek for you...

Pretty sweet hey? I'm so proud of James and I cannot wait to share the full song and video with you!

Happy Wednesday!!

TWO YEARS

Yesterday marked James & my two year wedding anniversary! We spent the weekend going off grid at the gorgeous Point no Point resort (just over an hour from Victoria but felt like years away!) No wifi. No cell phone service. Private hot tub overlooking the ocean. It was pure bliss. 

I still can't believe it's been two years since we said "I do". I still remember almost every detail from that day.

Waking up at 6am with my bffs. So nervous yet so excited. 

Having the best time getting ready. Dancing to get out the jitters.

The quiet ride to the ceremony and the anticipation as we arrived.

Holding my daddy's arm tight as he walked me down the aisle.

Locking eyes on my love, my husband, my future.

Our first kiss in months! ha.

The day went by RIDICULOUSLY FAST. I remember asking for the time sometime during the reception and being so sad when I found out how late it was because I was having so much fun and wanted it to last forever.

Happy two years James peter Liira. Here's to a billion more.

Grow old along with me, the best is yet to be.

GOING OFF GRID


This weekend James and I will be celebrating two years of marriage. (BOOYAH!)

We're heading to a cabin on the ocean. Private deck. Private hot tub. eeeeeee I'm sooo excited. The resort doesn't have wifi or cell phone service so we will be going off grid completely....I don't think we've done that since our Saltspring vaycay in 2012, and our honeymoon! 

Hope you have a fantastic weekend...still can't believe there are only two weekends left in August!

Still plenty of times to live it up though. Summer vibes all around.

  • I really want to master this braid. It screams summer but could transition to fall.
  • Anyone down for a smores party?
  • Peaches are on sale everywhere! Buy some immediately and make this salad!
  • One last summer DIY.

TGIF now go live it up!

PARKSVILLE

So I'm trying to soak in every last bit of summer. Usually by this point, I'm longing for fall but this year, I'm clinging on to summer. And I have a firm grip. 

I know I was just in Whistler but what do you do when the holiday fairy calls your name and whisks you away to a happy place? You let it happen, that's what you do!

Especially when said fairy takes you to a beach front condo with your bffs.

My goodness we had sooooo much fun. It was definitely a weekend of excess. 

So much food.

So many episodes of Veronica Mars.

So much reading.

So many laughs. 

Here's what we got up to...

Now doesn't that look fun?

Hope you're soaking up the last bit of summer! James and I are headed for one more quick getaway (I know!!!) for our 2 year wedding anniversary this weekend.

The place we're going has no wifi and no cell phone service...insane hey??!!! I am soo excited.

Happy Tuesday.
