Secret Santa Is NOT So Secret...

Jackie, Steve and Henry headed over to our house bright and early on Christmas morning for a yummy breakfast! Once we were finished eating it was time for more gift opening...

First up was Henry!
Because Henry gets all of the boys' clothes and toys, he has EVERYTHING a little guy could want - so, I went for big and loud this year! Check out this cool V-Tech learning, biking giraffe - he can learn his ABC's and exercise all within the comfort of his home! :)
Next up it was time for the adults to unveil our Secret Santas! We always start with the oldest - so Papa got to give his present to the person's name that he drew back on Thanksgiving! Here is Dan with his fun gifts!
Next, Dan gave a gift to my BFF Steve (you are lucky I still like you after our texting war yesterday, Stevearino!!!) I just love how he always poses for the camera!
Steve then presented his gift to....NANA!
...who in turn gave the gift she bought to...PAPA! And look, he got sticks!!! Because his real present was sitting in the backyard - a big ole metal dome, custom made from a welding shop to have HUGE bonfires in this year! S'Mores at Nana and Papa's house!
Since Papa had already given his gift and only Jackie and I were left, it was obvious that Jackie and I had each other...and even more obvious that we had shared that information with each other! Jackie got to pick out all her clothes I got for her as well as these fab sunglasses!
And I received all the great martini and red wine glasses as well as a fantastic Sherpa throw!
Since I knew I would be receiving such great gifts, I planned ahead and found some fun cocktails to serve - so once it hit noon, we were experimenting! Too bad no one was really into drinking such strong drinks - thanks to Nana though for trying them out!
The party wasn't over yet though - there was another meal to be served and more family to see! Christmas, Part 3 was coming soon!
