A few of the party goers practice hiding in the corner. My baby bro shows us how hot the sun is when "be there in 10 minutes" turns into more than a half hour
Finally, from the other side of the house, birthday boy and his best girl arrive.
Lots of hugging
Lots of laughter from his friends
Once she got over the shock of a crowd of people yelling surprise at her and Daddy, Hope had a great time with her friends
Corn-on-the-cob was a big hit
Until cake came along. Dad got the first slice and then there was some discussion about who got the corner flowers. Hope wasn't happy for a moment but then everyone shared.
A toast to the birthday boy
Me and my sweeties
Happy Birthday to a good son, a good Dad, and a good guy

What a fun day. It looks like everyone got in on the festivities and lots of memories were made....Happy Birthday to you son.....We mamas are proud aren't we....?
Nothing like family get togethers! Handsome son and of course gorgeous little Hope!
Awww what a great day! Happy 40th to your gorgeous boy. The photos are lovely. I especially love the one of the three of you.
Is the little boy in the yellow t-shirt related? I see a resemblance between him and Hope.
Since I am already totally in love with Hope, I loved seeing her incognito at this event. Loved it! You are so fortunate, Dianne, a great family, with love in abundance. :-)
He's not too bad to gaze on either. And that Hope. What a face.
Of course he is a great guy..You raised him..Happy Birthday.. hugs..Michelle
Hey! I celebrated my birthday as well this past weekend. Bizarre how close our birthdays are. Looks like your son had a great birthday, and Hope had a blast as well! :-)
Happy Birthday to your son, proud Mama! You all look fabulous; I love the glasses Hope is wearing in some of the pics.
Oh, yes, it must have been a surprise to Hope, too. What a nice crowd, and lots of yummies. I'm sure your son was delighted.

I keep forgetting your kid is only a few years younger than me! Wow!
I think wars have been started over corner flowers. There needs to be some sort of new cake to address this issue so everyone can get one.
It is kind of startling when your child turns 40, as my daughter did this March, but then it is a great occasion for a family celebration!
I love seeing photos of Hope and her daddy together. What beautiful offspring you have.
Happy birthday to your son and many good wishes for a year full of awesome!
Looks like a fun party. Nice photos!
What a handsome guy Hope's daddy is! Lovely family. My youngest will be 50 next birthday! I must be getting old.
Hi My Dear....Just checking in to see if you are okay....It's been a while since you posted and also since you visited---Just making sure you are okay and letting you know I am thinking of you and sending you (((((((HUGS)))))))
These photos of that gorgeous son of yours are killing me!
I love love love the photo of you looking all sultry in that hot eye shadow with your handsome son and the edible cheeked third generation.
