The Crockett's Thrift Store Christmas

Since we Crockett's didn't see each other until AFTER Christmas, and Grandma and Grandpa didn't have the fun of watching us give to each other, 

we decided to have an unconventional, after christmas gift exchange!

Monday morning my mom divided names up so that each of us had someone to give to that night. We then headed downtown for a THRIFT STORE EXCURSION! I hope the new uncle Josh didn't think we were crazy--it was actually the first mass thrift store trip our family had taken. That being said, it was great fun, and everyone found cool things. SO--in an amongst the regular treasures my mom and dad had brought, the rest of us gave each other thift store finds! 

Here we see Meredith with a bunch of CHEAP barbies. She was in heaven.

Holly's face after getting Grandma Vicki's gift--an all in one video, camera and games contraption! 

It was certainly great for the 10 hours home!
