The BIG 4-0!

Yesterday was Marc's 40th birthday. We invited all of our friends and family to help celebrate. We had a great turnout and beautiful weather too!

Marc did all the cooking...that's what he wanted to do for his birthday! He did a great job, hamburgers and hot dogs for everyone!

Cake and ice cream too! It was almost a cake disaster...I went to Costco to pick the cake up in the morning and luckily I looked at it. It said "Happy 45th Marc!" I looked at the cake and the lady at Costco said "Is there a problem?" to which I replied..."He's having a really hard time with 40...he's going to FLIP if I show him 45!" They promptly corrected it...all the ladies in the back were laughing so hard I could hear them. When they handed it back to me they said "Here you go...Marc's 40 again!" :-)
We had a cake there for Marc's sister, Tracy, who happens to have a birthday on the same day as Marc (and no, they are not twins).

The kids had a blast playing together. Here is our friend Noah with Marcus.

We even had games for the adults!

I tried to put the kids to bed but they were very upset that Daddy had not opened his presents yet. So we had Daddy come in and open presents. The kids went to bed and the party went on into the night. It was a great success! HAPPY 40TH MARC!!! Thanks to everyone that came to make it so special!
