All Matthew wanted for his 10th birthday was a Nintendo DS. I kept telling him that all he was getting was socks and underwear....he didn't believe me. So my hubby and I decided to play a trick on him.
Look at the excitement on his cute little face!!

What's this?? Socks and long underwear in the DS box??

Are we mean or what?

Then hubby felt sorry for him and pulled the DS out of his back pocket!

All is well in Matthew-Land!

This sounds like something we would have done to our daughter! Poor little guy!
Happy Birthday!
A few years ago, hubby got a PS2 when his first PS2 had died, so I had the box kicking around in the closet. Well, I needed something to pack a gift in at Christmas, so I used that- it was coffee stuff for hubby.
Every year, though, I leave a few small things unwrapped (I used to love seeing something immediatly under the tree as a child), so with the box, I put a ribbon and bow on it, and Nick's name tag.
The kids came running into the bedroom to tell us there was a new PS2 under the tree for dad, and could they please have his "old" one?
