Happy New Year!





It's about time I got back on this blog! Here are the ups and downs of the Crane's 2009.

In December 2008 the company Raymond was working for went out of business. This started a new adventure for us. We searched and searched for a job, but never found one. This gave Raymond the opportunity to open his own business. He moved through several ideas before settling on energy consultation and green remodels. He is getting ready to start talking to customers soon. Hopefully he will be in a place to go by the end of this month.

At the beginning of the year, Raymond and Jamie were able to participate in our stake production of "Beauty and The Beast." It was a lot of fun! We made a lot of new friends and really enjoyed getting out of the house for a few hours.

We have been working hard on our rental properties this year. We are now pro's at painting. We were able to sell our house in Magna after some remodeling. It ended up looking pretty nice, I must say. We've also learned a lot about the court system, but we won't go into all of that.

The most exciting and wonderful thing this year happened in June when we welcomed Aa into our family. He is such a happy and easy going little baby. We all love having him here with us. All of our children are such blessings. It amazes me how unique each one of them are!

We love you all! We are hoping for a fabulous 2010.
