Default Birthday gift

Was my birthday sunday and as some of the wives gives something on birthdays ( a car or parts for the vette) mine was cheaper but it's about Vette's nonetheless. Was going to post this in Off-topic but I figured it'll get more traffic here. That's how proud I am. So if the powers that be moves this thread. It's ok!
Here is what she gave me this year
