Alex's 40th

Alex turns 40 on Sept 4th!! Really crazy. We decide we need to have a big party and what better party to have than one that he really lived in and loved: the 80's! So, we had an 80's party --most came dressed up from the past and we enjoyed Mexican food (Alex's favorite) and of course enjoyed the 80's music.

Here we are--Alex and I

Brett and Christy

Jenny (our fierce margarita mixer--virgin, of course)
Some of our decor: we tried to find some of our old 80's favorites. Aqua Net, Sun In, NERDS, Jane Fonda workout videos, boom box, neon sunglasses, Smurfs, Pictionary, Goonies...the list is endless

Matt and Laura


Brad and Julie



Jim and Adrienne (sidenote: Adrienne is wearing a Homecoming dress that I wore in the 80's)


Rachel and Nate

Diana (with Jake)
Katelyn and Wade (believe it or not he won for best dressed male!)

David and Nicole


Annalee, Steve and Matt


Lori, Adrienne, Laura and Christy
Alex with his cake

Christy, Diana and I

We all had a great time. Alex doesn't really look 40, right? Well, thats what we are telling him anyway.

That is awful and I love it! So sad that we missed it. Maybe we can do another one when YOU turn 40?!?

Too funny! As I was scrolling down I got to that dress and thought it looked familiar. Great party idea.
