"I Smell Corn"

Good day everyone!

You may have noticed a bit of silence from me this weekend. Fear not, I haven't forgotten my blog once more. I have just been taking advantage of this beautiful fall weather! I don't know about you, but my favourite part of the fall season is when the season is just turning. It's still gorgeous out, but not too hot, and you can just smell fall in the air. I love this time of year!

This weekend, I travelled to the the Annapolis Valley and Halifax, both in Nova Scotia, Canada, to visit two friends from university, and one friend from home who is away at university. While I was in the Valley, I went to a really cute farm, which included an epic corn maze. So I decided to take a few pictures to share with you!


Some pretty plants outside of the corn maze.


Our map of the maze. I was in shock at how elaborate it was!


I loved the view of the corn against the bright blue sky that day.

A gross but neat-looking piece of corn.


A view of the maze from a tall bridge we crossed.



As you can see, I had a lovely time on this beautiful, sunny autumn weekend with friends. What is your favourite time of year? What do you like to do in the fall season? Let me know in the comments!
Also, don't forget to follow this blog on Blogger itself, as well as Bloglovin'!

Until next time!

National Back to Church Sunday

Hi there!

My name is Olivia, and I go to church. Just thought I'd put that out there. I have been involved in church activities my whole life, and I wouldn't feel complete without it. That being said, the last thing I want is for this space to become a 'religious blog'. But when I stumbled upon this precious video, I simply had to share it with the blogging world!

National Back to Church Sunday is coming up on October 6th, and the organization running this initiative has made this awesome clip to encourage people to get into a church! I laughed so hard when I watched this, that I wanted you all to experience it as well. The church name shown at the end of the video is the one I attended while away at university, however I am not sure where the actual music video was made.



Hope you enjoyed, and remember, everybody across the nation, find a location!

Until next time,

That's My Kind of Night

Hello there!

I hope you're having a great day!

Where I come from, country music is quite a thing. I don't live quite in the 'sticks', but just a hop, skip and a jump from my house is what you might call proper country land. There are farms, fields and trees a-plenty. So you can imagine that we like to get our 'hoedown' on every once in a while. Which is why I wanted to tell you about this beautiful individual who is currently on everyone's country music radar:

LUKE BRYAN.

Yummy, right? Married? Absolutely. But that doesn't mean we can't ogle just a little, right?

You may have heard some of his music before. His most popular songs include 'Country Girl, Shake It For Me', 'Rain is a Good Thing', 'Drunk On You', and 'Crash My Party'. 

Personally, I am a huge fan of his second last album 'Spring Break... Here to Party'. It makes me want to go speedboating, fishing, camping and beer drinking all at the same time. His newest song 'That's My Kind Of Night' is also to die for.

If you're not typically a country-music-listener (trust me, I really can't get into it either), I urge you to give Luke Bryan a listen. I guarantee, you won't be disappointed. Well... you might be, but that's alright, at least you've expanded your horizons! 

What I'd like to hear from you is: what kind of music do you listen to? Is country your thing? Leave me a comment!

As I write this, 'That's My Kind of Night' just began playing on the radio, and I can't stop grooving along! So I will leave you here, and hope you have wonderful, sunny autumn evening wherever you may be!

Until next time,

Liv xx

The Little Things Are the Big Things

Have you ever found yourself feeling very bored? Or caught yourself wishing your life was better, or more grand? I know I have. Sometimes it feels like our little lives are dull, uneventful, not exciting enough. But when you step back and look at the big picture, you might find that the little things in life are what make it wonderful. So today I thought I would share with you a few things in my life that I am very grateful for, no matter how little. Be forewarned, most of these snaps are from my phone and not of the best photographic quality.


Perusing the bargain bin at Target. 'Romantic Favorites'? Hmmm...


The beauty of your city.


A colourful sunset.


Dinner with friends.


Making teddy bears with your bestie.


Taking pictures of your brother when he falls asleep at work.


When little kids make you stuff.

See what I mean? All of those things are pretty simple, but don't they just make life that much brighter? What are some little things in your life that make you happy? Let me know!

Until next time,
Liv <3

Twerkin' it Out

Hi! My name is Olivia, and I am self conscious.

Now, I know I just did a post about body confidence (and by 'just' I mean a month ago... oops). But that is not the self conscious I am talking about. Have you ever taken what you thought to be a really great picture, only to find out that you actually looked like an alpaca on shaving day? This is how I feel whenever I try to make a Youtube video.

For the last 8 months or so, I have aspired to have my own channel, with lots of funny/inspiring/thoughtful videos. I have a whole book full of video plans. But, to my chagrin, every time I sit down to record such a thing, I end up trashing the whole project because I am not comfortable with the way I look/the way I talk/THE AMOUNT OF TIMES I BLINK WHEN I'M NERVOUS!

So all that being said, I PROMISE YOU, videos are coming. And in case you're interested, I have tagged this post with some of the categories of ideas I have for the future. I'm really looking forward to sharing this with you!

Until next time,
Liv xx
