Turning 40– Now What?

40– how did I even get here? Well almost here. That is where I am at with just under 6 months until the big 4-0 and I am planning to finish out my third decade on this earth in an amazing way. I want to do things for others, celebrate just being me and live my best life. What happens when I turn 40 though? Chapter 39 has been pretty good I am not even going to lie. I have decided that I want to live the way I want, to practice my hobbies. I have embraced being a work at home homeschooling mom more than ever. We are gardening, raising chickens, making memories and taking so many pictures. This is a dream life for so many and for that I am blessed.

What does my 40th year mean to me? Just the same stuff as before with a different number of years attached to it. A different perspective maybe? A different feeling of gratefulness that I have been blessed with this much time. I have seen a lot. I have experienced so many things and now what? I just want to do more.

Here at Product Review Cafe I have always been the person that maybe overshares. Maybe I involve the blog too much in my “real life” sometimes but this was actually our first baby. I have poured my heart into this so why not now? I am going to continue sharing experiences here. Continue making gift guides and sharing how we celebrate big life events and milestones. What has the last year brought me? Just more lessons. I want to share this huge milestone birthday with my blog family and we will have a guide running over the next 6 months or so with gift ideas and fun ways to celebrate such a momentous event. Keep your eyes peeled because this might be epic!

If you have a business that would like to be featured in this guide, please use the contact tab to reach out. None are too big or too small to be featured. We work with all types of situations and budgets to ensure that everyone is represented. I will be maintaining this guide from now through December and there is room for everyone. Some ideas include:

• Party decor
• Gift Ideas
• Food/Drink Options
• Retreat/Parties on the Go
• Destinations
