Where To Begin?

No really. I don't know where to begin. We didn't drop off of the face of the planet, but so many changes have occured in our lives that I don't know where to begin on our blog. I think I will take the next few days and play catch up on the last month of blogging and then you will know where we are at.
But for right know I will give a brief overview: School was cancelled for one week because of the snow, Christmas party at Costa Vida, Costa Vida Employees give their tips for gifts to the local children's hospital, our flight is cancelled to Utah for Christmas, we spend christmas in Oregon, a week later we get a flight to Utah but Dustin can't come for 10 more days, while Dustin is in Oregon and the rest of us in Utah our bishopric is released and Costa Vida closes its doors (both we were not expecting), the kids and I spend some time with family, Dustin comes to Utah, the Murphy family goes to the temple together, Savannah is baptised, we go back to Oregon and I am called as the first councilor in the Young Womens, we are triing to tie things up at Costa Vida and look for jobs, the kids go back to school and now it is time to regroup, sell our home and figure out what our next adventure is. Any suggestions?

I am so sorry about Costa Vida. My only suggestion would be to move to Arizona ;) ... or at least Utah so I can see you when I visit my parents.

Truly, I wish you good luck during this time of change. Anything you need (help with a move, a listening ear, etc.), please let me know.

Your family will be blessed because of how wonderful you all are. We have loved having you here in Oregon. Hope you can stay. And how did Jacob get bit by a dog at the airport?
