Check the bridge out baby!

Here are a few shots of what's been happening in our lives. Basically just settling in to our wee apartment and getting to know the city.

Strangely even though we are loving San Fran we have been thinking about heading back to NZ in the near future - a combination of opportunities at Jon's work, getting a wee place of our own and having our friends and family near by - we miss you guys!

Another draw card of NZ is that I am able to study there. With Jon's encouragement I have decided to go to design school to study Interior Architecture! I am SO excited, it's something I have always dreamed of doing and I can't wait to get started :)

As usual for us this is all up in the air and we have no idea of when we will be back in Aotearoa so are just busy living in the now, enjoying being foreigners in an amazing city.

Hope it's all good for you folks, hugs and kisses from us

xoxoxo

This little cutie is Luca the 7 month old baba that I look after - we like taking him out to swanky places so that he can throw beadcrumbs and straws everywhere!

This is our good friend and support person Rachel, and check out me in glasses - well I never!

Transamerica Building that you see in the skyline from all over the city

Golden Gate Bridge and city from coctail lounge in a verrrrrrrrry tall building

Fantastic to be able to go to the beach after living in the desert - makes for great seafood restaurants too!

We went over to the Marin Headlands for a weekend, it's just across the bay. The weather was a bit shitty but it was great to get out of the city and play in the mud :)

Check out my two favourite boys hanging at the park!

This is the funky cat tower we brought for Tahi to try and make up for his new life as an inside puss - he LOVES it!

Jon works at home now that we are living in San Fran - this is where it's all happening ladies and gents!

This is the murphy bed I built with my own bare hands!

...and closed :)
