Ha ha, so this is almost a month late, but that's okay! Jon turned the big 26 on August 10, and since the last two years we have been too poor to buy any real presents for him (we always had to use the money to fix the house or pay for school or fishing or whatever), this year I was bound and determined to make up for it! So, for his birthday, he got a Nintendo Wii and a new 16 piece set of golf clubs! I had so much fun planning his present, and originally it was going to be the golf clubs or an iPod and fishing lures or the Wii, but once I decided to get the golf clubs (because I couldn't find the Wii), my sister called and said that she found a Wii and that my family would go in on it to pay for it, so we got both! Anyway, I didn't get any wrapping paper because I decided it would be a futile effort to try and wrap the golf clubs, so Julie (who came to bring the Wii for Jon) and I improvised our wrapping jobs! :) Here's the pictures!
Jon's reaction to the golf clubs! (And just the birthday surprises in general!)

This is called Redneck Wrapping Paper.

This is cooler than any wrapping paper you'll ever find! It's fleece!

He's laughing at my wrapping job - I thought it was creative! ;)

He was soooo surprised to see a Wii!

Jon's turn to play!

Even Ricky liked the golf clubs. Here he's playing "Dog Pound".
It was a way fun birthday - it felt good to finally be able to get Jon something nice. Jon went golfing the next day before work to try out the new clubs, then we went on the Saturday after. Anyway, that's it! Happy Birthday Jon! I love you!
