I just remembered what I did for my husband when he turned 50 (good for ages 20 +) and although it sounds expensive I found a way around it. Instead of everyone getting a gift for my husband people put that money towards all of us renting a yacht in Vancouver, B.C. and we toured the beautiful harbour lights of Vancouver. The cost included 3 people catering and the finger foods were out of this world. Had a wet bar and everyone brought their own bottle. It was fantastic, the party was a blast and everyone was talking about the experience for months later. Marcy Lots of jokes about being over the hill, use black ribbons, black plates/cups/plasticware, black balloons, black everything! That's just one idea. There are so many choices. Please go onto www.Google.com Type in: Party ideas for a 40th birthday party There are all sorts of great ideas and all you have to do is pick the right one to suit the person's personality. Have fun! Marcy

Normally, the colors for a 40th birthday are black and white and the theme is "over the hill"

Well, you can't go wrong with flowers unless your mother is allergic to them. Most mothers I meet love them, though it's usually different kinds. You can also give her something you think she's been wanting, maybe she's been hinting about a certain thing she wanted, for example jeweler.
