RACHEL

Graduation 2014 // Edmonton, AB





Exactly three weeks ago, I watched my sister walk down the staircase. The staircase I walked down when I graduated high school three years ago. The staircase you carelessly run down when someone you've been anxiously awaiting is at the front door. The staircase we'd be walking down on each of our wedding days. Though just a staircase, the amount of sentimental value it holds blows it's physical significance out of the water. I can't tell you how many teary eyes and full hearts have been at the bottom of those stairs. So on this day in May, gasps were ushered, hugs were embraced, and an "oh my gosh, you're hot" was had from me... Couldn't help itttttt. Like, could you? Nooo. I'm so proud of Rachel for working hard and pulling through the woes of high school. And now it's finished! And soon, she'll be on a plane, passport and backpack in hand, flying over the Pacific waters to Hawaii for YWAM, starting her life adventure off right. I love you and you'll always be my best friend. 




Rachel is always posting a rad new post on her blog so do yourself a favour and check her out, if you haven't already!

and I love her dearly. 







One of mine and Rachel's favourite things to do is search out new and unvisited places amongst the city, filling a memory card of photographs. Last week we found ourselves in a place downtown where the canopy of dark foliage made forgetting you're in a city usually marked by a skyline of sharp edges and towering heights easy. Nothing is sweeter than these afternoons with my best friend. Missing her as she is having the time of her life at camp. and these dear-to-my-heart photos aren't helping that!

i thought tarzan was nice. but i guess i thought wrong.

that’s a Kodak Brownie Hawkeye and flash holder, folks. from who knows when.   
i don’t drink rye but if i did, i’d drink it out of this exquisite bottle.

would i ever pass the salt and pepper if they were in these adorable things.

although such antique malls can be overwhelming, i thoroughly delighted in spending a couple of hours in this one.

love,
emily
