Celebrating Forty

Lee turned 40 earlier this month and I really wasn't sure what to do to celebrate.  He was adamant that he didn't want a party; heck, he didn't even want people to know it was his birthday.  So we ended up, just the four of us, at our friends' restaurant for dinner.  Although he was convinced that 200 people were going to show up at any time to surprise him (serious trust issues in our relationship, obviously), the only surprise was the cake that the girls and I got for him (which our friends brought to the restaurant for us in advance).  We had a nice dinner, yummy cake and he was surprised by almost all of his gifts.
A battery powered fly swatter.  There is one of these at the place we stay at the beach and he loves using it.  In a serial killer kind of way.  Now he can practice at home too.
Extra dark chocolate Lindt truffles - 75 count.  I'm not even sure where he keeps them, so he might be able to eat all 75 himself....
His beloved Bruins.
Chocolate peanut butter cake.  Insanely delicious.
We watched the entire series of Breaking Bad over the summer, finishing the final season just recently. Lee really, really enjoyed it, so when I found this keychain on Etsy (where else?), I snagged it.  The fact that he immediately put it on his key ring tells me that I made a good choice.
