Christmas out West

We spent the last part of our Christmas break in Western Iowa with the Euken family. Mollie kept asking when it was time to open presents :)

   

 We figured we would start with the biggest one.

   

 Auntie Michelle's kitchen for Mollie was a BIG hit!

   

 Grandpa helped Mollie open more presents.

   

 Hat twins!

   

 We were blessed to be able to be a part of the Nichols' Christmas celebration this year. Mollie stayed close to Grandma's side.

 

Cousin picture!

   

 Each of the original 26 cousins took a turn to share their favorite memory of Grandpa Nichols, Grandma Avonell, and Colleen. They were some really sweet memories which brought lots of laughter and tears.

   

 Grandma and Mollie did some baking together.

   

 Mollie did her best to make sure everyone had a chance to play with her kitchen, including Grandpa.

 

Mollie spent lots of time outside doing chores with Grandpa, but it was too cold for me to venture outside to take pic :). We are thankful for the time we had with family. We are blessed indeed!
