The BIG 40!

her High School table
here Jr. High table. Love the hair cut.

Here is Jennifer coming in! She was began crying on us!

Photo of her cake & cupcakes. I must say that all of the ones that helped with this were awfully nice not to put the black decorations.

A wall dedicated to some of her favorite treasures. It was quite funny!

Recently, I helped with a surprise party for Jennifer (Jamie's aunt). She turned the milestone age of 40 & of course her family (mainly husband & kids) wouldn't let it go unnoticed. I had fun digging through her childhood treasures - including looking (& a little laughing) of the many hairstyles of Jennifer! Instead of doing the all black and "over the hill", we decided to dedicate a table to each phase/stage of her life from birth to now & include anything that was associated w/ it. There was a "birthday table" that had baby pics, her baby blanket, etc,; school tables that included Elem., High School, college mementos,; marriage, a teacher table (she is an Elem school teacher) a table for each of her kiddos, and then an "Over the Hill" table. It was a lot of work getting all the stuff together, but it was worth it! Here are a few pics of her party -- & yes, she was surprised!
