"A Christmas Story" Christmas

posted by Mr Rocky Top at 9:33 AM
Christmas certainly was a wonderful time with family. We did all the traditional things: had a Christmas breakfast, opened presents, looked in our stockings, ate Christmas Eve leftovers. I got a big surprise, though, that evening after we had left the house. Some our family friends were going to meet us at my brother's house so that we could exchange gifts. When they arrived, though, the mailman of that family had on a mailman outfit, and I noticed that he had a package marked "Fragile" in his cart. I couldn't believe it! He had me come to the door and receive the package. I started digging into it found the leg lamp! Yes, I found the leg lamp that was made famous in the movie "A Christmas Story." I was so excited! I couldn't believe what had just happened! This had to be one of the best presents I have ever gotten (considering the reenactment). Here are some pictures:
