Happy 4th from San Fran!

We made it safely here to San Fran, but we've been camping out in our own house. The moving company still has our stuff on the road and won't be here until tomorrow (Tuesday). We got here on Thursday evening. Without a car, our options for entertainment and food shopping are limited, but the kids are getting really good at walking up steep hills! After a very loud and excited 5 second tour of our home, the kids were in agreement: this house is much better than our house in Rochester. After we got keys, we walked to a bakery for lunch. It was a little quaint place run by an Asian family. There was a friendly customer there who played his accordian for the kids, it was a lot of fun.
It's my Nathan's birthday today! Happy 36th birthday my love! I wish I had some cool pictures of the most wonderful man in the world, but I don't because they are all on our computer that's still on it's way here. Nathan has some great plans for his birthday: we are going to Golden Gate Park to listen to a band and then we will spend the afternoon and evening at Fisherman's Wharf with a fireworks show at the end of the day. We'll become pros at public transportation yet.
We'll post pics later. We get a lot of strange looks with our big family, but we love it!

What a great way to spend Independence Day! Fisherman's Wharf one of our favorite places. I'm glad the kids like the house. I think the pics of the outside are pretty amazing-so I bet inside is even better.

We were just visiting with the Polleis and were talking about you guys! (in a "wish they were here" kind of a way). I've been interested to hear about your move and some of your adventures! Cletus just celebrated number 36 too! Tell Nathan Happy Birthday from us!
