Happy New Year!

 2012 has been filled with some pretty spectacular memories.   Our family went to Disneyland during "Ski Week" in February.

April started off with Papa Jon and Grammy Dori tying the knot.  We've had so many special memories with them and all of our extended family this year. (In Old Town Sac before Uncle Jeff's 40th birthday during September here).
 We counseled and saw the beautiful wedding (in May) of our dear friends Kirstin and Micah Rodrigues.

 During August we were able to get away to Windsor (Nor Cal) to spend some fun days by the pool with the Cornelio Ohana.

Later in August, Jackson and I got away for the weekend to Pismo Beach as I stood in my childhood best friend's (Kerensa) wedding and we simultaneously celebrated our 8 year anniversary (July 10th).
We've spent countless hours with our dear friends, neighbors, and family. Yvonne (pictured with Fiona here) has been a regular at the Perdue home.  We love that.

 We've seen Belle flourishing academically, socially, and spiritually.
 Our three girls have grown right before our eyes... their bonding has amazed us.

Juliette has brought so much fun to our family.  Her active body and imagination make every moment full of life. 


Fiona is filled with personality and she's a precious one at that- it's amazing to think of how God miraculously brought her into our family.
Most days haven't been full of total smiles, but as I reflect on this year I can say with confidence that we are blessed.  God loves and is working with this imperfect family.  For that I'm grateful.
