• Aug. 10, 2008 - "Suprise to me!"
Turning 40 was really not a big deal for me! Other people try to think and make it a big deal, by the usual comments. "Oh my 40 years old, I never would have thought?" or "40 are you sure?" or "YOUR not THAT old!?" The last one was always my favorite ...then they would always follow up with, "WOW! How old is your husband, again?" The comments never ended really bothering me ...I just wanted to dodge everyone who knew I had a birthday coming. Not because I was turning 40 ... but for all the comments....Well, let me tell you the 'rest of the story.....
I had to work on the evening before my birthday, my husband and children were going to a wedding. Upon his arrival home, he went to pull into the driveway and noticed something different....so he stopped! Stopped at the beginning of our driveway leaving the vehicle partway on the court/circle. From his explanation, the children were in 'awe, then as daddy was filling them in...they were saying 'COOL, how AWESOME!
I drove up; mind you late verrrry late at night! As I was coming down the end of the road I noticed that my husband didn't pull into the driveway like normal. I was in a stupor, stopped in the middle of the road and called him up...just to ask "Why didn't you pull all the way into the driveway?" He stated in a calm voice, "Wait and you will see!" I was thinking of the worse ...like the whole side of the hill caved in ...or perhaps the house.....you know those type of things.... he he! I still didn't notice a thing...walking up to the door where I almost ran into it! That is when I backed up to look at it ALL! Here is what I saw....I only wish we could have caught the whole house into one picture so that you could enjoy it as much as we did! A friend from my husbands work drove a lonnng way just to do this for me! "How Sweet!" What do you think? Sit back and enjoy the laugh ...envision this along with the knoweledge of the post before this ....the wall and the hole in the yard etc.... I wanting to tear it down right away, my husband only saying, "NO ITS not your birthday yet! LEAVE it up!" Complying with my husband; not happy about it, however we left it up for the time being.
