...and it wasn't me! Last week my best friend and co-worker Linda turned the BIG 4-0, so being the good friend that I am, I planned a celebration. If only we could have this much fun everyday of the week. I wanted to keep it classy with a few touches of humor. A trip to Target, served as my inspiration. I found some great black and white polka dot napkins and decided to plan the day around that. Another co-worker made the cake, which was delicious and turned out just how I wanted! Linda kept telling me all day that she was having a great birthday and that made me so happy. I think 40 looks great on her.
I couldn't find a polka dot birthday banner, so I made this one, it looks better in person.
Inside her room- you can't see it but there are post-it notes with 40 written on them and balloons on the floor.
Surprise!!
Me with the birthday girl. One of the teachers was more than happy to donate her 40 "bling"!
The cake
The cake table-just ignore the bookbags in the background, it was a school day!
40 is not so bad!

What a great friend. I love the polka dot decorations. Simply perfect! 40 isn't so bad. Really it isn't...hee hee.
What a fun surprise birthday party! Please tell Chef Daddy that I want black and white polkadots for my 40th birthday, which is next year! You did a great job!
Looks like you were a great friend and helped your friend enjoy her 40th birthday in grand style!
Love the decorations- the 40 "bling" was too funny! And for the record, your friend does NOT look 40! Just looking at the pictures ALMOST made me wish I was back at work. Almost. :)
What a sweet friend you are to make her day more special! Looks like you all had fun!
