Picture Palooza

I have a wonderful husband. After reading our last post, he went and bought me a camera cord. What a guy! I love him! So here are some pictures to help you through the last few months of Crane life.

First up is our anniversary. We went to The Roof. Delicious! Afterward, we found some nice foreigners to take our picture. We're so multi-cultural. And those are the flowers Danny surprised me with. Eternal love. That pretty much sums it all up.




Laurel and I went to Taylor Swift in September. It was super fun! She is an amazing singer! We had tons of fun yelling...I mean singing our heads off. Baby will definitely be a Taylor Swift fan.

Next up, Halloween. Here are some pictures from our party.
We're pretty attractive, I know. But some people walk in the light, you know. Here's a few more of our party and The Pumpkin Walk up in Logan.
After a two year absence, Danny and I were finally able to go to a BYU football game. Laurel and Randall had extra tickets and for once we weren't working.As you can see, we were really, really excited. It was a lot of fun, even though our toes are still recovering from the cold. Jaymes came and visited us.
That just leaves us with Thanksgiving. It was just the two of us this year so we (mainly I) decided to skip the cooking hype and eat it up at Chuck-a-Rama. Brilliant idea! It was so good! The only sad part about eating out- no leftovers. But we're getting over that. Craig and Lana came to visit us that night. It was fun to see them. Wish they were closer.
Well, that about sums up this palooza. Life has been great! We're so excited for the Christmas season and for the upcoming birth of our beautiful baby girl. We have so much to be grateful for.

By popular demand...

It's that time again. Life has been wonderful lately. We've been really busy, but still able to do lots of cool stuff. Well, let's face it. Danny and I are just really cool people. A lot of our pictures are on my camera and, sadly, we lost the camera cord, so we're just going with whatever we have on Danny's camera. But, I digress.
This past month was Danny's almost favorite time of the year. He is a Halloween fanatic. He loves the decor, the jack-o-lanterns, the dressing-up, the-scaring-your-wife-silly bits of this random but delightful holiday. I did get him back a few times though, so I think we're pretty even on the scaring each other part. We had a fun Halloween party with lots of people we hadn't seen for awhile. All these pictures are on my camera, but everyone lived up to the "dress-up or beware" warning we placed on the invite. McKenzie and Von we're wild Indians...uh, Native Americans, Laurel and Randall we're a snake/lizard and a cow, Dean and Katie were crayons, Justin and Emily were Cleopatra and Marc Antony, and Danny and I were nerds (yes, we did have to add a bit to our regular attire). We had yummy food and played Werewolves and Villagers. Fun was had by all! Overall, October was a fabulous month.
Now on to what's really important. Baby girl is doing so great! We are super excited to meet her and can't believe there are only 9 weeks left of this long, arduous process (there have been fun moments to I guess). We bought a stroller, car seat, bouncer, and she is getting well-stocked in the clothing area. I made a bunch of headbands a while ago. They are pretty adorable. We still have to work on her room though. I'm afraid she may have to live in the closet, like my sister did for a few years/months :), but hopefully we'll get everything settled before to long. That's what Thanksgiving is for, right? So, I do have a couple of belly pictures. I've been really bad about these, but I do have a good excuse.

As you can see, things are looking pretty good :) We're so excited for our darling baby girl to be here. To hug and snuggle her. What a special blessing she is.
In other news, two years ago today, Danny and I held hands for the first time. Thank you Napoleon Dynamite.
