So I decided to attempt to throw Allen a surprise party for his 30th birthday. I cannot believe it, but I actually pulled it off. Over 40 people showed up, everone was on time, Allen didn't notice any of the cars he would know as we drove right by them, no one said anything to tip him off, and we didn't run into any one in the parking lot on the way in. SUCCESS! I could tell Allen truly didn't know as we left the house. He RARELY wears a hat anywhere and I kept saying "Babe, aren't you going to fix your hair?" NOPE. He thought we were just meeting Jason and Amanda for dinner. The place I chose is called Big Fish. It is on Main Street in Grapevine. Now I decided on the date for the party long before those damn Cowboys set their schedule, but our two schedules collided. Thank goodness there was a big screen tv in the room I reserved.
I had my good friend Leigha create a logo just for Allen's party (Above). I then had custom shirts made for everyone along with temporary tattoos and cookies with the logo printed on them. I went a little nuts. BUT! Everyone looked fantastico.
So it was a great surprise party/Cowboy watching party (except for when Alex kept unplugging the big screen tv!)
Thanks to all my friends who help me carry this out!
Surprise!
He was truly stunned for 30 seconds or so!

Can't say I don't know where Alex gets his blue eyes!
