Matt turn's the big 4-0!

When I asked Matt what he wanted to do to celebrate his 40th year, he surprised me! 

I was thinking of getting a few friends together to go out to dinner. Not creative at all, I know.

But, Matt had much greater plans at work.

His plans included three of his favorite things: Friends, family & Mexican food! And he made it clear that not only did he want friends and family, he wanted all of their children to be a part of it, too. He wanted games for the kids and of course a pinata or two.

What a great guy!

It quickly became apparent that our house was NOT going to be near big enough and I was starting to get nervous.

Then Matt remembered the Laurel Grange Hall. The place he was forced to take "gymnastics" as a young boy. The place where Gymnastics really ended up being ballet classes. The place where Matt had to put on tights and prance around on the stage as he played a mouse in the Nutcracker. 

Perfect!
