HIPPIE 40TH BIRTHDAY FOR MY WIFE'S 40TH BIRTHDAY, OUR FRIENDS AND I DID A 60'S PARTY.  THEY REMOVED ALL THE FURNITURE OUR FAMILY ROOM AND REPLACED IT WITH 1960'S FURNITURE THEY BOUGHT FOR A SONG AT THRIFT STORES. THEY REPLACED OUR PRINTS ON THE WALLS WITH 1960S PRINTS. THE DOORS ALL HAD BEADS HANGING. THEY HUNG A DISCO BALL IN OUR FAMILY ROOM. WE HAD A LIGHTED 7 FOOT PEACE SIGN AND OTHER 60S DECORATIONS. THE BEST PART WAS THEY PARKED A 1960S DECORATED VAN IN OUR FRONT YARD WITH A SMOKE MACHINE INSIDE.  IT WAS A SURPRISE PARTY, SO WHEN WE PULLED UP, OUR FRIENDS WERE ALL DRESSED IN HIPPIE CLOTHES AND SOME OF OUR FRIENDS ROLLED OUT OF THE SMOKEFILLED VAN INTO OUR FRONT YARD SMOKING "JOINTS". IT WAS A BLAST.  WE WROTE TWO SONG PARODIES ALL ABOUT THE BIRTHDAY GIRL AND GAVE PRIZES FOR BEST COSTUME AND MOST CORRECT ANSWERS ON A 1960S QUIZ.
