My 40.0899th Surprise Birthday Party!

In December, my big 4-0 birthday came and went without any fan-fare. Well, Darrin' s timing may have been a bit off, but I sure did get a big surprise to come home after work on Saturday to find friends, Christine and Julia and Mark sitting on our sofa yelling "Surprise!". There were decorations, pina colodas, chicken kabobs and birthday cake waiting for me. We all had a great afternoon. What a good way to celebrate my 40.0899th Birthday! Thanks everyone for the big surprise!

Darrin really out-did himself shopping for groceries, and decorations and even going to the liquor store with two kids in tow. That must have been an experience. He made yummy food for everyone, whipped up some pina colodas and even made the cake and decorated it. Luckily, he had some help with the decorations.

Happy Bithday to you...Happy birthday to you...

Ewww, the big 4-0!
