Happy 40th birthday Mike Jackson

were you wondering where i was yesterday .. i was home .. putting on the finishing touches on the big birthday party that we had for mike last night .. you thought that i was in bed watching law and order reruns and eating oreos didn't you .. it's ok .. you can be honest ..

to celebrate being 40 we ate cake from Wanda's .. oh man .. and she doesn't just make any kind of cake .. this cake is covered in chocolate shavings and chocolate covered strawberries ..

as you can see we didn't have any problem eating it ..

this is mikes mom .. she is the sweetest momma that i know .. she makes homemade soap that is wonderful .. she brought me some super fuzzy and warm slippers to .. not to mention that they drove over 3 hours to help us celebrate mike being 40 !!

happy party people ..

birthday boy and his friends ..

jeff and toby were analyzing the ou game .. talk about arm chair quarterbacks .. and tail backs and running backs and defensive ends ..

birthday boy .. and toby ..

this is lee .. mike's son .. he can play a mean guitar ..

we had chicken and steak fajitas for dinner .. noah assured me that everything was perfect .. that is why he went thru the line 5 times ...

that is mikes dad .. his momma .. and his daughter julia and her boyfriend ..

after dinner .. it was time for presents and cake .. and yes .. i made him wear the birthday hat .. !!

look at the glow from all of those candles .. 41 of them .. i put an extra on for good luck !!

after dinner .. presents and cake we sat out by the fire .. told big stories .. and the fellas drove gene's car thru my front yard .. i can see how it kinda looks like a nascar track ..

we ate to much .. celebrated way to hard and stayed up way to late .. i think that is the perfect way to celebrate being 40 !!

Happy Birthday Mike .. !!
