A Year In Review

Merry New Year!

In the past, when we sent out Christmas cards, we wrote a letter talking about everything the past year brought us. Now, we have resorted to doing that on the blog.

2011 was an amazing year. We had many adventures and a lot of memories.

This was the first year that did not involve a change in jobs or a move. Both of us are still working hard at our jobs. Jeff still works for the same Starbucks he was at last year, plus putting in hours occasionally at the local GAP to keep our discount. Jen is still in the same department at Stanford, and has been doing some interesting work.

School is continuing to go forward for us both. Jen completed the first terms of her Master's program and will begin performing observation and direct client interaction starting this month. Jeff continues to complete his undergrad, and if everything works out with the schedule of classes, he will be done with his bachelor's by the end of the year, and moving on to postgraduate work, hopefully completing his prerequisites to go into the medical field.

This year also brought us the chance to travel a lot! In the past year, we have visited southern California, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Utah, Colorado and Seattle. Together we had many adventures, and captured many of the memories on film, as you can see in the slideshows on this blog.

The two of us have been very blessed this past year to have the year that we have, and are grateful for our jobs and opportunities that we have been given. The coming year, we hope will continue to bring many adventures and new experiences for us. Already several trips are in the works, in addition to the demands of school and work that will allow us unique opportunities.

We are excited for this new year, and hope that you all have a fabulous year along with us. Here's to 2012!

Love always,

Jeffery and Jennifer Perry
