My mother retires and turns 60 in the same month. I am planning a surprise party to celebrate both and am looking for any and all ideas to help make this an unforgettable celebration.
Thanks,
Allison from Kentucky

I need some ideas for my husband's 65 birthday party. We live in Florida and I am renting a party room in my building with a view over the marina.
But what else can I do about decorations commemorating his birthday and the things that were around at that time.
Hope to hear from you soon.

I recently threw a 60th b-day party for my boss, and one really great idea that everyone at the party enjoyed was I made a slideshow on my pc of pictures of my boss, his family, co-workers etc. The pics varied from when he was a young man in the military to recent photos on the job. They included pictures of him with his children and everything. I saved the slideshow to disc, and used a laptop hooked to a tv so it could play continuously thruout the party. All the guests enjoyed it and my boss took it home as a gift afterwards.

My cousins recently had such a party for their Mom.
They decorated in a "sock hop" fashion. Had home made posters about "costs" 60-65 years ago. What people made, what things cost then and now, etc - very entertaining. The highlight of the party was a "rootbeer float" punch. It was excellent.

Allison, you can go to www.orientaltrading.com and they have tons of ideas..you can also go to party411.com. The picture idea above was a good one, you could put the pics on poster board instead of a book and several can look at it at a time. Hope your mom has a great party!

Solicit, by e-mail, comments and photos from her former workmates and compile into a scrapbook and present it to her at the party. She'll enjoy reading from it, even if the commenters cannot attend the party.
