I usually take the day off from work and go to the spa. I'll have a meal at my favorite spot, shop a bit at the mall and see a movie. It's become a birthday ritual. However my nephew even suggested I do something different since this is kind of a big deal. If you asked what gift I wanted I could tell you right away but I'm stuck on how to celebrate this milestone.
Any ideas?

I turned 40 a year ago today and celebrated the same way as today - with nothing. Sorry, I'm a crappy suggestion giver.0

My 40th birthday was my best ever. I remember my ex-husband surprised me with a red Z28 Camero in the garage. Then the following Saturday I had a surprise birthday party where everyone wore black and they had a male stripper. That was a fun birthday. I turn 60 in October and celebrating with my husband who is also turning 60 in early November. We will be going on a cruise in a month with about 100 people. I'm counting that as my celebration. Happy 40th birthday!0

What a great question Lindonesia! I'm turning 40 in January 2015, and with my birthday falling on a Saturday, I want to do something fun/big. I'm thinking of a weekend get away with my sweetie, but I'm also open to suggestions.0

I am really good at celebrating my birthday! Here is what I did for my 40th:
Morning: Massage, facial, manicure and pedicure
Afternoon: Lunch with friends and some shopping
Evening: Dinner and drinks with friends, followed by private striptease lessons at a local dance studio with my girlfriends
All of us were afraid to take the striptease class so had a few drinks before hand. I am not sure we ever laughed so hard in our life. It has provided many very funny memories that I will always treasure.0 -
I'm turning 40 in October. We'll probably do something at my mom's the weekend before (my birthday is mid week) and then move the party to the International Balloon Fiesta for a night glow or something later on that evening.
After that, I'm taking a week off I and the family are going to California for a little fun in the sun and some surf. We're staying 7 nights in San Clemente...we have some chill days planned, but also taking the kiddos to Disneyland for the first time and we'll also be taking in the San Diego zoo and also doing a Dolphin/Whale safari. My wife's present to me is a two hour surf lesson for which she will take the kids and leave me alone on the beach plus an extra hour after the lesson.0 -
My husband and kids gave me a lovely party. My Mother decided I was old enough to be given a lovely ring that's been in the family for over 100 years. Very special day .......0

Yup! I turned 40 in March. Went to Vegas in April. Shows, a day at the spa, slots, and people watching. It was so fun and relaxing!0 -
Vegas! Made a quick 2-day trip and celebrated my actual birthday on Freemont Street. There's a TON of things to do even if you're not into gambling - my husband had all the non-gambling stuff scoped out. Awesome time.0

I had several friends that I celebrated with. We went out for dinner and drinks, and just had a blast! As a matter of fact, every time we go there now, we request the same server... often times she see's us and asks them to seat us in her section :laugh:0

I had just gotten seperated from my wife so not much. I went to lunch by myself and had a milkshake. lol Then I bought myself a new pair of sunglasses. Exciting huh?0
