lordy, lordy, johnny turned 40!

my wonderful husband turned the big 4-0 on 1.10! i (with them help of family and friends) was able to pull off a surprise party at our own home the friday night before.

it was a little tricky organizing food, drinks, decorations, etc. and cleaning and readying the house without bringing too much attention to it and making him suspicious. but i managed to do it (again with the help of friends and family), and when the knock came on the door and he answered it to find a stream of people carrying food, balloons and cards, instead of the domino's delivery, i couldn't help but catch this picture...

i think he was surprised! it was a very small gathering of family and just a few friends (i would have loved to have more...just no room), but it was a fun evening nonetheless.

here is a slideshow of his party. there are just a couple of pictures...i swore i took a lot more than i did, but i guess not.
