Christmas Day

 Santa always brings Ben, Mollie, and Annie's presents to MawMaw and PawPaw's house.  You can see that Santa has been by.

 Mama videoed them coming into the room.  Mollie was a little upset.  The doll that Santa left was not the exact one she had in mind when she talked to Santa.  However, she soon decided that she liked it.  John pointed out that it looks just like her which is better than a brown haired doll.

 Ben wore his new Mississippi State hoodie all day.

 New boots from MawMaw and Pawpaw.

 Mollie with the WORST gift ever purchased by MawMaw -- a Frozen wand that plays "Let it Go" if you even breath on it.  John put it in a box in the back of his truck on the way home hoping it would use up all the battery as it bounced along.  No such luck!

 Somehow John made it all the way through college without getting a cowbell.  With the awesome season they had this year, he kept saying he wished he had one.  T'Mara helped me get one for him.  She even hand-painted it.

 Mollie loved the matching outfits MawMaw and PawPaw got her and Rosie (according to the box the doll's name is Shannon.  Mollie named her Rosie, though.  John calls her Shannon Rose just to annoy Mollie.)

 Nerf guns from Uncle Will!

 Grandaddy had quadruple bypass surgery just a couple of weeks before Christmas so we made a quicker trip to their house this year.  We arrived in the afternoon and opened presents, but left right after supper.

 Mollie was very excited about her beautiful birthstone ring.

 Mollie is showing Rosie her new doll-sized tent set.

Somehow Annie is not in any of my pictures from Nana and Grandaddy's house.  Whoops!  She really was there. Maybe Fran has a picture of her!
