Friends

Finlay and Jasmine have been stoking the fires of their friendship in the sunshine on our new (similar) larger rug.

Life is good on a sunny Saturday afternoon! Love from SF Xx

Ocky's home sick today but enjoying pushing Finlay's stroller in the sunshine. Finlay loves everything his big brother does, of course.

More of this, please!

Bedtime story

Oskar conked out and started snoring halfway through Pippi Longstocking tonight - love to our Swedish contingent and Uncle Anthony who introduced him to it :)

A great big fire

So this also happened, a few days ago last week. This building was a 9 story construction site about 300m from us, and we could feel the heat from the balcony here as it burnt down in a single gigantic fireball. 

The building in front is an 8 story Mercy housing project. It was saved. The fire behind is in the 9 story building

This is pretty much the view from our balcony in the apartment 

There's about 170 apartments on fire all at once here 

There's really not much left. The building to the left is damaged on that street facing the burn site. Our friends live there, but were not affected

Here's a photo our friends took this evening from their building across the street
