Ryann got such a wonderful surprise on Christmas! Santa himself showed up at her front door, and brought her a pony!!! She was pretty unsure about him, and refused to sit on his lap, but she liked it when he jingled bells for her! She was so cute in her reindeer Christmas jammas, and LoooVed ripping open gifts! Every gift she opened she said "Wow!!!" It was so stinkin cute! She made out like a bandit, considering Mommy and Daddy decided no more toys....that didn't work out so hot. She has a toy room that is already Filled to the brim with toys, so we are just going to replace some old ones with the new ones. Santa brought her a big jumpjump, a mini dyson vacuum like mommy's, a cute little baby boy (so she will understand a little more how to act with a baby, and she is doing incredible with it already).
The best gift of all was having Gramma and all of her Crane aunts and uncles here to celebrate with her! We love having all of us together, even though we just have a small house for all of us, its nice and cozy!
Ryann love love loves her Gramma, she gets so upset every time she has to leave, and is lost for days after :(, its a good thing she has so much fun with her while shes here though! So this year, all us Crane kids drew names and decided it was homemade gifts only! This was so much fun, and I hope we keep the tradition up because it means so much more to have to put time and thought into a gift you have to make! Chauntelle made me a wayyyy cute knit headband, Trent made Chauntelle a really pretty mod podged shelf, I made Hallie a cute Monogram Necklace holder, Britt made Will some sweet shelves made out of skateboards, and Hallie is making Britt an Aggie Blanket. Will and I (it had to be a joint effort because it took soooo much sanding) made Trent a giant Jenga set!!! It is so awesome, if I do say so myself! We had so much fun playing it, and we decided we are gonna have to make one to have at our house too!
Christmas was so awesome this year. I love having my family here, I wish we could all be together more often. I am so grateful for all the blessings my Heavenly Father has given me, and my family is definitely the most amazing gift He has given me.
The Jenga Set it pretty dang awesome. HOw did you even come up with the idea? Seeing all your posts and pictures makes me miss you guys. It has been to long.
