We made the most of our last few days at the condo and trying out new cafes. Been wanting to visit this rooftop restaurant for awhile…

They have a little tent for yoga…

And an aerial yoga class was happening.

Took a walk to the cove since it wasn’t too far away… Don’t think we’ve been here at night actually!

The seals are just as stinky in the evening, haha.

Thumbs up on the creative food!

Oh, but their raw carrot cake… The boys rated it too carrot-y.

They needed some fried stuff to balance the healthy. ;-P Hole-in-the-wall Calvin’s is a regular fave for them.

And then, voila, on January 18, we closed on our house and received the keys. We had just a few days to get some third party contractors’ work done that we didn’t use the builder for before our containers arrived.

Put new carpet in as we didn’t like all the builder choices. Felt bad they ripped out perfectly new carpet but supposedly it was donated so hopefully it was put to good use. There was a bit of drama with the scheduling and some of the contractors not making it on the right day as we had such a small window of time and order was important but we just gritted our teeth and tried to make it all work.

LOVE the chevron backsplash. :)) Builder didn’t have this either…

Makeshift workstation for a few days as we didn’t have any of our furniture.

Epoxy-ing the garage floors was a must for Y. The previous builder included it (perhaps accidentally?) for our other house but this time we got to choose the finish.

The epoxy guy did a great job!

Epoxy wasn’t high on Mommy’s list of things for the house but the speckle and smoothness did turn out well…

Mi-Boxes, we meet again. Being in the city, our new neighborhood had much narrower streets but the driver (same one!) angled the two with the doors facing each other.

Last run and morning sunrise by the bay. It was a long time coming but now to officially move in and unpack…
