I don't often get surprises, so signing up for Secret Santa holds for me the joy kids get waking up to a Christmas morning of wonder. I'm not ashamed to admit that I squealed like a kid when I saw a LOOTCRATE in my door awaiting me today! How much fun is THAT?

My son helped me open the box which held a wonderful tshirt, a tin from Halo, a patch from Galaxy Quest (I need a patch for something to!!), a Han Solo funko pop figure and a pair of amazing BB-8 socks.

Thank you Santa! You made what's been a bleak month/year brighter!
