One of my co-workers had a 40th birthday celebration. His wife, Sam, did a great job planning and decorating for the party. She even managed to keep it a secret. He was TOTALLY surprised! He couldn't believe that someone from work hadn't let the cat out of the bag.
I had lots of fun hanging out with all my work friends! It was a great way to end such a crazy week.
We are The Matthews! We have been happily married for 13 years. God has blessed us with two precious children that we thank him for everyday. This blog is all about the crazy life of our family.
