Darren turned the big ole 4-0 this month. To throw him off, and to catch all our friends who would be traveling this summer, I threw him a surprise birthday party at the beginning of June. This summer our good friend Steve Fellows also took the plunge into mid-life so his wife and I (Jen) combined the festivities. I learned that this kind of party can't happen without good friends. Everything from food, decorations, sneaking the surprise, etc all was completed only with the help of very talented people. We served shredded sweet pork with all the fixin's for a yummy Mexican fiesta. Then some especially skilled gals (I don't dare mention names for fear that I will forget someone) made some sweetness decorations and the house and backyard were literally lit up with fun! We had a mariachi band come for entertainment- that was the icing on the cake for Darren. He loves mariachi and has always wanted this particular band to come to our house. Here are a few pictures to enjoy. I need to get more from Jen. Happy Day, Big-D!

How fun that you actually pulled off that surprise. Greg has only got a few years left before that benchmark birthday - and he is already going through a "mid-life" crisis! Looks like it was a blast.
