Last year my now brother-in-law Palmer came to CA for Christmas to meet all of us. We told him we wanted to do something that his family did for the holidays. Palmer's mom, Julie, is from England and they would open these crackers as the dinner table. I had never heard of these before and they are not the crackers you eat they are these things that you pull apart and they make a popping noise and inside is a crown, a toy, and a joke or fortune. 
We had told my Mom to buy the crackers but she didn't because they were too much money. Luckily they had them at Michaels on sale after Christmas.
We opened them New Years Eve after dinner. Parker was terrified of the noise so Lacy opened his for him. 
We took pictures of us wearing the hats but the kids would not cooperate, especially Ruby. My Mom kept trying to get the kids to look at the camera so between her and the kids we didn't get one good picture, but at least we tried. 
Then we took silly pictures wearing our crowns.
We took all of our crowns over to my Grandma's to show her what was in the crackers and we decided to put a crown on her and take some more pictures.
I even made Sam put a crown on for a picture.

Oh my gosh, Josie and I cracked up over Sam's picture. We couldn't stop laughing!
Ruby's hair is SO long! Also, Sam's picture is funny. I will have to show Palmer that the crackers made another appearance.
