Ideas for a 40th birthday party please!!!

Hello everyone
I was looking for some advice/ideas if possible.
My other half's 40th birthday is next month and I was considering a party for him, nothing too big.
Few problems though!!!
1. We don't have many friends, in fact they are other half's as he works as a taxi driver, and I don't get out much.
2. We have 6 children so budget would be tight but I am not looking to do anything fancy.
3. What would be a reasonable start and finish time do you think?
4. Should I get some gazebo's for outside?

And finally how do I keep it secret!!!!!

    the way the weather is your prob better doing something in doors,why dont you do something small at home,few close friends and family,with a buffet type meal.works out cheaply you could also theme it to ,play games that were out when he was younger great to get the kids involved,fav food from childhood,music from day he was born.i think this makes it very special especially since its a 40th. hth:)
