Our sleepy little town...

For some reason, today has got me in the reminiscing mood and I've been thinking about how lucky we've been to call this little town home for the past few years...

Living in Manhattan was a totally different experience the first few years out here - so much to see, do and experience that in some ways life always felt like a never-ending merry-go-round ride.  (Sidenote:  I do really miss my late night runs to this place though... dangerous to have an awesome diner directly across the street from your apartment!)

Leaving Hoboken is definitely going to be tough - as much as I've had a love / hate relationship with NYC over the past few years (definitely more hate than love lately...), this little town has made such a difference in my life and is probably the only place that ever felt like home over the past 4 years.

Today is a beautiful summer day, so it's time to go take a walk and enjoy this little town of mine while I still have it :)

New York Memories - Cruisin' the Highline

Wrapping up the week in LA...

After a full five days in LA, I am fully convinced that the weather + beach + mountains combo just cannot be beat... Driving all over town (and avoiding as much traffic as possible) I found myself constantly pulling out my camera to snap photos and fully soak up this amazing place I get to call home in a few short weeks!  Hoping these photos convince you all that a visit in the next year is a non-negotiable :)

The last of the iPhone photos to share from the trip...

Coast Restaurant at "Shutters on the Beach" - I think a monthly trip will be in order to this place...

Our table...

Could not get enough of this place...

I'm a total sucker for twinkle lights in the trees...

Santa Monica sunset...

Santa Monica pier...

Had to dip my toes in at least once...

Classic California...

Until we meet again Los Angeles...

Getting used to LA...

After a few days in the "City of Angels" I feel like I'm somewhat beginning to gain my bearings... Still not used to having to jump in the car all of the time, but hey - the beach and the awesome weather more than make up for it.  A few iPhone snapshots from my trip so far...

Landing at the very beginning of sunset... Beautiful...

Driving in Beverly Hills...

A wonderful surprise to celebrate our second year together...

Headed into Culver City...

First look at the beach...Playa Del Ray..

Oh hello beautiful...

A California Jaunt...

Just landed in LA for the week and first stop was the pool with a nice glass of California Cab at sunset... Only a few more weeks until this is officially our new home, almost surreal as we have been wishing and hoping for this move to come together for a long time.

Here for the week by myself so missing this guy right about now...

More fun pictures to come from the week soon!

Lately...

As the weeks in New York & Hoboken wind down, we've been lazily exploring and trying to soak up the present in the place we have called home for the past four years.  A few favorites from the last few weeks...

Nothing beats a full moon over the city...

 

Landing at JFK at sunset...

Brunch at The Madison, one of our favorite Hoboken spots...

Are these for real??

Sunday hiking trip up the river...

Random swing in the middle of the trail...

The manliest fur at Ikea... (sidenote, do people really use these??)

A wonderful stay-at-home movie night...
