this morning the boys were playing 'surfers and lifeguards' with their lego men.
last week, on our walk to the park, we walked past a street that was blocked off to film something.
then, at the library, i met a young mom who is instagram-famous, and whose tutorials i have totally tried out.
matt works at a temporary office (until the one at the LAFC stadium site is ready) so he eats lunch at the universal studios crew cafeteria, overlooking the harry potter area.
we have palm trees in our front yard and 'pet' lizards in our backyard.
we have spent 2 full days at the beach, visited the griffith observatory, shopped at target, seen the hollywood sign, and have heard more honking and helicopters since we arrived then we have heard in the past 2 years!
so ya, i'd say we aren't in calgary anymore :)
we are enjoying getting to know our area.
our neighbors have all been so friendly and welcoming.
our next door neighbor even baked us scones - which seems like such a neighborly thing to do!
we live within walking distance of a handful of cute parks, a few grocery stores, more restaurants then you can even imagine, a library, and lots of homeless people.
when we were looking online for a place to live here, we often saw the word "charming" used to describe things.
matt and i liked to make fun of the usage of that word.
but, now that we are here, i gotta say it's a pretty accurate word for where we are!
charming.
the street we live on is old. a neighbor a few houses down has lived there for 50+ years, kinda old.
the houses are small and the trees are big.
tad's first time touching the ocean!.. was a bit chillier then he was expecting.
i like how this picture is 0-3 for open eyes!
see the hollywood sign in the middle of the background?
(holden is throwing a tantrum in the background. it was embarrassing.)
