Every year, the royal family gathers at the Queen's Sandringham estate to attend Christmas service and participate in totally normal royal activities like exchanging gag gifts (yes, it's totally a thing). Though it's only Meghan's first official year as a royal, the Queen allowed her to attend last year's holiday festivities, so the Duchess knows what she's in for this year...gag gifts and all. See every single photo of the royals at this year's Christmas service, ahead.
