My Christmas Loot...and it was a very cardy Christmas

Ok, so in my last post a few days ago, I teased with a picture of a 2010 Best of Chrome value box that I picked up at Target with some early Christmas money from my wife's grandfather.  I wasn't expecting a ton of cards for Christmas when I bought it...I was wrong.  Here is what I got:

My wife and I gave each other a trip to the ACC Championship game this year, so on Christmas day, we only had stockings for each other.  I love stocking packs.
2010 Topps Update Dollar Tree (x2), 2008 Upper Deck X (x2), 2010 Topps NFL


















My Sister-in-law and her boyfriend upped the ante the next day:
2010 Bowman Chrome Hobby (x5)















The highlight of Cardmas, however, would be from my Father-in-law.  He has always given the best presents, including many years of improving my drumset with various add-ons.  Well, in my first Christmas officially in the family, he blew me away.
2008 Upper Deck Masterpieces Hobby Box,
2009 Upper Deck A Piece of History Hobby Box,
2010 Upper Deck Hobby Pack





















How's that for a welcome to the family. 

I have all of this stuff busted and scanned, so look for the posts coming soon.  As a teaser, the UD A Piece of History box will be of particular interest to Braves fans.

Oh, I almost forgot...My Sister-in-law and her boyfriend also gave me some toilet paper:

I'm pretty sure you'll find the David Price card in that A Piece of History box.

You know, I thought the same thing, and I actually didn't get it. I am still one card away from the set. It sucks because now I'm trying to figure which other christmas presents to return to get money to buy more APOH blasters. A collector being one card away from a set is just wrong. How I have 8 George Kottaras RC's and not one David Price is beyond me.

Wow, nice xmas presents. UD Masterpieces or Chronology are some of the nicest cards. Hope the breaks went well!!!
