The Haechrel Catch Up!

Hi Everyone,

I just posted lots of stuff....so make sure to scroll down, I was a little behind!

Thanksgiving

We had a grand time with the Haechrel's and extended family and friends at Thanksgiving. So very thankful we could all be together and especially thankful for the opportunity to spend some time with
Grandma Agnes, who had only met 1 of the 5 Idaho/Washington great-grands!
Grandpa Bob, Mitch, Great-Grandma Agnes (Bob's mother), Chris and Amelia

Great Grandma Agnes, Amelia and Cousin Paige

The "5" Haechrel Grandkiddos

Aunt Stephanie starting to wonder if she has some competition with Amelia.

Grandma Sandy and her two baking helpers! Making fabulous chocolate mint cookies! Which we quickly gobbled up!

Cousins Reece and Paige wishing Amelia and Mitch goodbye.
Brooke and Drew enjoying a few quiet minutes together.

Thank you everyone for a great holiday! The drive was well worth it.

The food was great, and we so enjoyed our time together! We must do it again soon.

Ahhhhh.....Amelia

Well, Amelia has had a few adventures in the last week.

First, she cut her hair.

She gave herself a mullet. It wasn't pretty.

But it turned out okay. The bangs are a little heavy, but it will grow.

It is choppy in a couple of places, but it will grow, right?

Then she gave herself a shiner. Yes, a big ole' black eye.
Whew....it looks terrible and is still healing.

She was chasing with the cousins and Mitchy at Grandma and Grandpa Haechrels over Thanksgiving. Slipped on a rug and ran into the corner of a wall.
Ouch. She cried, a lot.

But she isn't so distressed over it anymore, as you can tell.

It is still painful for me to look at though.
I am glad we got the mullet fixed before she got the black eye though. She would have looked like she belonged in the backwoods of the Appalachians with it all going on together.
