A FEW WEDDING PHOTOS

hello sweet friends!

james & i just got back from serving in edmonton…such an amazing time at WECA church..(i’ll write a post about it all very soon!)

on our way home (on the 14 hour road trip!) we got an email from our incredible photographers, AMERIS (seriously, amazing photographers! check out their other stuff on their website!) with five photos. i absolutely love them and i’m beyond excited to see the rest!  

yesterday it was our one month anniversary…i’m so blessed to be married to this incredible man.

DIARY // ADJUSTING

hey lovelies,

bah. i apologize for not blogging. let’s just say, this season has taken off. in a good way. a very good way. but it’s hectic round the liira household. we’re still organizing the house. i’m learning to decorate with patience. as my lovely friend, kendal reminded me last night, “it’s all about the hunt.” 

we’re currently hunting for a new couch, new big rug & night side tables. i know we’ll collect these items in time, but please send me any leads if you come across some sweet ones (preferably good deals! ha)

i hope to get back to regular blogging next week! we’re heading to edmonton to serve at a  sweet conference (it’s the launch of a new ministry, check it out! http://www.RescueEdmonton.com/ ) james will be leading worship with our city youth team & i will be speaking at a session! very excited to preach about purity! please pray for us…! it’s a 12 hour road trip….! but it’s going to be a fun one.

so it looks like we won’t be getting to the house until next weekend, which is fine. our bedroom is pretty much decorated. james let me have the full closet :) (he made himself another one just off our bedroom) i decided to colour code organize and seriously, it’s the best. it’s way easier to find & pick out clothes & notice when one’s are missing!

happy tuesday!

DIARY // THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME

Hello my sweet, sweet friends,

WE’RE HOME!!!!!!

yep, that’s right my husband (<—— love saying that) and i arrived home from our honeymoon late thursday night. we got home to all of our stuff in the middle of every room (our landlords painted the place while we were gone) but nevertheless we placed our mattress in a nook in our dining room and had a good ol sleepover. we slept in that nook for two nights while James painted the main wall in our bedroom with chalkboard paint (we got BIG plans for that wall, just you wait).

i can’t wait to give you a home tour. i seriously LOVE our place…our bedroom is all set up and it’s really a dream.

looking back on the past two and half weeks is madness. so many memories stored up in this sparkling heart of mine. i can’t wait to divulge about the wedding (which for the record, was THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE). i can’t wait to tell you about our incredible honeymoon. ohhhh, there’s so much i want to say…but let me start with this..

i loved every single minute of being back in my home church. James & i are very, very, blessed to be part of an amazing church. we were bombarded with love & kindness from our sweet friends.

James & i found it incredibly hard to transition our minds from honeymoon mode. the season ahead of us is very full but the moment we got back home we knew in our heart it’s going to be an amazing one.

God is amazing. i am blown away from his goodness. He has blessed us with SOOO MUCH.   we are more than ready to be poured out for His glory. 

xoxo,

MARRIED!!! Just wanted to say a quick but massive thank you to all our amazing family & friends! Yesterday was absolutely magical and your continual love & support means the world to us. We’re off to our honeymoon now! We’ll be off the grid for a while. See you when we get home!

DIARY // TWO SLEEPS

The past two days have been a bit stressful…ok, very stressful. But today feels good. I woke up with God’s peace…ahhhhhhh. I also woke up incredibly, extremely excited to marry James.

It all seems surreal but tonight is our rehearsal & rehearsal dinner, so I’m sure it fill extremely REAL after that.

I just wanted to say a HUGE THANKS to everyone for your prayers, love & support. James & I are both so blessed by all you incredible people in our lives. :)

Until next time,

s.s.♥.
