We haven't disappeared

Okay, so we have been a little negligent in our blogging.  We haven't disappeared, we just have been in a kind of limbo.  I think we are anxiously awaiting the time when we can actually announce that we have finally found a place and since that is where our focus is it doesn't seem like the other events are nearly as significant.

So, since Jess was baptized (6 months ago, HOLY COW) we are still living with Annette and Rollie.  Maren, Cora and Emmett each had a birthday in turn and we went to Dallas for Christmas break.  There are probably a lot of pictures of all of these events, but I don't know if they have all been downloaded so you get what I have.  Also last week I took two days off of work and we went to Epcot and Hollywood Studios.  It was a great trip that was timed and made even better by meeting my brother Travis, his wife B and their son Peyton.  None of the kids new it was coming so the surprise made it even better.  For those of you who don't know Carol watched Peyton almost everyday for a few years when he was little (he is 4 days older than Cora).  I used to take him from Travis at 5 in the morning as he and I were getting ready to start work and put Peyton in bed with Carol to snuggle until the rest of the house started waking up.  As a result Peyton is feels almost like our own son and we love him so much.  Since we hadn't seen most of our Utah family in two years it was an awesome trip to be able to spend time with them.

And here are some pictures.  (Also Emmett got sick the second day and so he and Carol missed out on most of Hollywood Studios, but luckily our passes still have 2 more days on them so we can go back anytime before the end of June for some more playtime!)
