In December 1542, Henry invited Mary to court for New Year festivities. Eustace Chapuys, Imperial Ambassador, reported to Charles V that “this came very a propos for the Princess, who, in default of a queen, was called to Court triumphantly, accompanied by many ladies.” For the 1543 New Year celebration, Mary occupied a leading role in the gift exchange and the associated court ceremony. She embodied the role of queen consort, a foreshadowing of her future position as queen regnant. Her December privy purse accounts recorded the gifts she gave to the Prince’s household officers “at my ladies coming thens to the Kings Highnes.” The January accounts recorded her gifts “Geuen amongs the king’s officers vpon newyers Daye.”

my top favourite moments from this year's secret santa:

georgie bringing up alex repeatedly due to how they are married in real life

unfortunately he completely skipped over the great joke, "you've got the posing down to a T"

liam's true and genuine enthusiasm for his gift was SO CUTE. oscar did well!!

"whenever i take my driver cover off i'll be thinking about your butt" alex i love you

valterri guessing george because the frogs on the goggles look like him 😭

more footage of estie looking joyful in haas teamwear YIPPEE

plus, him talking about being an RC car freak, he's such a dork and i LOVE HIM!!!

yuki not knowing anything about mate was both funny and painful 😭brother you cannot have some "before you sleep" there is SO MUCH caffeine in chimarrão

i'm sorry but the contrast between lance's complete lack of charisma, to the video immediately cutting BACK to franco because he's too magnetic was very funny 😔

the whole franco saga in general was just great, he's a content machine and a STAR

lando joking with zhou he'd get him a knockoff dior but actually getting him a very sweet gift he appreciated was very him, i love it

getting to see the timeline of the chili costume bet was great, it really immediately motivated him

THE COUPLES PADEL LESSONS. i would say galex conspired but alex guessed george... suggesting he didn't know who george had. so they both INDEPENDENTLY decided to get them the same gift... more proof that they're married (and zak brown has a type)

An innovation that appeared after the transfer from paper to vellum was the inclusion of the “Gifts at Sundry Times” section, which was not a part of the Henrician gift rolls as late as 1539 and probably not an element of Edward’s exchanges. The gift descriptions given by the participants to the sovereign required more space than the details of the gifts given by the sovereign to those participants. The advent of a female sovereign probably explains this extra space. Gifts presented to the Tudor queens tended to be elaborate clothing and jewelry items which were described in more detail than the gifts presented to the Tudor kings and their Stuart successors. The variance of length between these two sets of information provided convenient “extra” space to record additional entries. The Jewel House personnel used this space to record primarily the royal gifts presented to ambassadors. Christening and marriage gifts and other miscellaneous rewards were also recorded here. Each roll’s account of these Sundry Gifts usually covers a calendar year as calculated from Lady Day, March 25, providing unique details about the Court. This category was most certainly an element of the Marian gift exchanges, although not yet organized completely chronologically. Mary made use of the extra space to record items ordered from the Jewel House or from the goldsmiths for use in special ceremonies. The Sundry Gifts category continued to be a regular element of the Elizabethan gift rolls, describing additional gifts bestowed during her summer progresses, a practice which Mary opted to eliminate from her summer calendar.
