the (not so) daily update

Here we are at the library again. I have a few minutes so I thought that I would write a bit and update what is going on with us here. Becca is feeding Jacob so I should have a good little bit to write some things that have been going on.
First of all Becca and I were just talking while we were walking over here to the library (it is about a 1/2 mile from our house) about how many major life changes we have undergone in the recent past; a new job for Michael, a new job for Becca (being a mother) a son, buying a car, moving across the country and even submitting an offer for a house. It has been a little crazy the last little while. We are thinking that things might slow down a little, but I bet we are always going to find a lot to keep us busy.
One thing we were able to do just recently was take time one Saturday to spend walking around Epic. I know that doesn't sound like much fun, just walking around my work looking at offices, but until you have seen Epic don't be too hasty to judge. We spent about 3 hours on what is called the Epic 'campus' and we only saw a little under half of it. All of the buildings are elaborately decorated and are themed. Some of the themes are New York City, Garden, Jungle, Asian, Wild West, Far East, Dungeons and Dragons and even Heaven. There is a lot of art to see and the architecture of the buildings is amazing. Whenever you have a chance to come out to Madison, it is definitely worth looking at.
As was mentioned above, we have made an offer on a house. We are pretty excited, and nervous about doing it. We are now just waiting for a response that looks like it will be delayed. We found out that the listing agent left for Florida on a family emergency and the sellers are in San Diego. It could still be a bit before we get everyone back and in the same place to talk about it. We just hope that it all works out.
We really enjoyed listening to general conference this last week. We missed a little bit of the first Saturday session due to house shopping, but we were able to catch the talks that we missed for family home evening. We watched the Saturday sessions at the Stake Center, and Michael even got to sit by Scott and Uncle Leslie (due to his trip out here with Brenda and Sandra) during the priesthood session. It was fun the next day to be invited to a ward members house to watch the other sessions and then to spend the evening with Scott, Meghann and their visitors.
Life continues to go well for us here, we really can't complain, especially when we even have time and good weather to walk to the library and enjoy sitting down and just writing a blog entry.
