INSTA LIFE

Mar 8, 2013

There's something so wonderful about capturing life's sweet little moments. I know one day we'll love looking back and reminiscing about afternoons spent by the ocean, village ice cream dates, and trips to our favourite sushi restaurant. This past week I've been feeling pretty nostalgic - ever since I sorted through our wedding photos, it's become shockingly obvious at how quickly 8 years can flash before your eyes. As a result, Martin & I have spent our last few evenings talking about our goals as a couple and where we'd like to be in five years. We both agree, between my health problems and our busy work schedules, we've been majorly lacking in the "fun" department. As for our main goals?... We'd like to work towards buying a bigger home, buckle down and start a family, pay off our car & debts, and (my favourite) get away on more trips. I have several planned for this spring/summer and I can't wait to share them with you! On that note, wishing you a lovely weekend, friends, and here are a few of my favourite bits from the past week or so...

  1. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you that everything works out superb for you. :) You well deserve it. Sounds very grown-up, but I guess for everyone comes the point in life to do these kind of things, not? ;-)

    Have a great weekend, too.
    Love, Nadine

  2. This is so far in the future to me - but I hope when I'm at this stage in my life I'd be as mature as you two are, but still have fun ;)
    I wish you the very best!

  6. It's amazing how quickly time passes! My husband works for a band and is on the road half the year, and lately I've been thinking about how we need to take the time when he is home to really plan out the future before it completely slips by! Your wedding pictures are beautiful by the way. So sweet. :)

  9. True story... I just started an Instagram account today, so I can save up my everyday moments.
    I love that you are so close with your hubby. I think it's very sweet and important in the relationship.
