Smile my hubby turns 40 today! We had fun getting the word out...



The pictures on the left are around the neighborhood (we felt it was our duty to make sure everyone remembers THIS birthday, lol) and the kids helped me put up the signs. Of course we are having CRAZY winds today... we'll see how long the signs last...

The pictures on the right are from his office, lol! On the door it says "Old Guy In Here" haha!

AND we haven't picked up the cake yet, but it's shaped like a gravestone, which is extra funny since our last name is Graves, lol!

(did I mention when I turn 40 I plan to be OUT of town? bawahaha)

Thanks for letting me share!

I suspect Andrew would have filed for divorce if I'd done that when he turned 40 last year.

You are only doing your duty as a wife by pointing this out to EVERYONE! LOVE it! i'm sure that Jeff won't admit it. . .. but, i think he secretly loved it too!

Happy 40th to him!

Haha! Thanks guys, it's been a really fun day! Thank heavens he's a great sport about it! Here are some more pictures that include the cake:



(notice the mug in the top right picture, used to say "World's Greatest Boss" - just like Michael Scott's from The Office, but his friends at work changed it....)

hehe!

Thanks! He's a great sport and had a great day - he got a kick out of everything we did - and we know the majority of our neighbors really well - it was more funny then anything! It was in good fun and he enjoyed it all!
