Spanner Christmas Gathering

So last night the Festivities began. Christmas has officially begun. The Spanner Clan got together for our annual Prime Rib dinner followed by a white elephant gift exchange. It was a blast...We held it early this year so more people could attend. This year we had it at Uncle Buck and Aunt Mary's house. Patrick was home from Eastern, but Meghan and Sean had to work so they were stuck in Portland, and Greatly missed. Also, Erica and Lilly were able to make it! Shane had to stay in Pullman though, he also has to work on Christmas Eve.
It was so much fun watching Addisyn and Lilly play. They are going to be such good friends as they grow up! They were able to take part in the gift exchange. If you ask me I think they came out with the best gifts, they got Mr. Potato Head Buddies! They entertained the family all night. As, usual though the girls always stayed close to there Papa and Nana. They truly are the apple of their eye.
At the end of the night after we had had desert and we were all sitting around, and some of the women were helping to get everything cleaned up, Addisyn was able to get some time in the spotlight. She showed off all her new tricks.
She performed for Aunt Mary in the kitchen as she danced with Grandma Great, sang the Itsy Bitsy Spider with Nana, and showed off her newest trick Crossing her fingers.
