i feel a different kind of happiness when i'm in california.
maybe the sun is different over here… maybe it's seeing family, or all the avocados, i don't know, but i like it.

we're still looking for a home in LA.  i'm actually really enjoying the process (even tho we've already struck out once, with the first place we wanted).
i'm excited about rediscovering LA. go away for a year & 1/2 & things change! (not *that* much, but still, it's different now.)
we are heading to LA, to look at a few places, just before xmas. we're thinking maybe less people will be looking, so maybe we have a better chance?
hope our theory pans out .

during our transition, you're going to be forced to look at pictures of everyday stuff.
today it's of my niece & nephew, my friend & her family, my kitty, my husband "my" office.

ps. just updated our etsy shop with some goodies. the plan is to have 100 things up all the time.

pps. i love this american life! every couple years i get re-obsessed with it. it's great for road trips, too! listen to interesting stories, and ira glass, & the time
just flies by.
ok. bye.

hi guys
it's been so nice to have a change of pace, like this. we're currently spending most our time in sacramento, ca. we have family here, & also family three hours south of here, fresno, where we stop on our way to LA.
we found a really great place in LA, now we're just waiting to hear back... hope we get it!

i've been watching lots of hgtv, & really want to break down a wall sometime....sometime soon. (ps. hubba hubba property brothers)
spending time with family & seeing old friends has been awesome.  most of our siblings have kids now, so we've been loving being around the little guys :) & they're all so cute and sweet!

these are some of the most recent pictures, & i am going to sleep now and getting up in a few short hours!
can't believe xmas is next wknd!!

 

fave burritos in town! they have potatoes in them...mmm potatoes...

night!

 

that's it!

hi.
we no longer live in brooklyn.

 edamame 'cheesey' rice w/ sesame crusted tofu & salad

the longer i didn't update the more pictures i had piling up! a good photographer is one that can edit their work. it's so hard to do. [edit, as in cut down on the amount of pics]

we're now in california, looking for places to live, in LA. i feel like the hardest part is over (packing, getting rid of shistuff, cleaning & cleaning) now for the fun part!
we'll be in LA friday & saturday... any friends want to volunteer and let us crash at their place? lol. (but seirously)

k. bye guys.
