So on September 10, Dave turned 30. I had known I wanted to do something special for hi so I threw him a surprise party. With the help of his friends Eric and Chris, I was able to pull it off. I invited about 20 of his friends over to help celebrate the day. There were a few times he questioned things, but I was always able to cover my trail. The first major one was when his work decided that having 2 teams of guys to work the Saturday shift was not going to work. When the initial Saturday work schedule was passed out the weekend I picked was a weekend he had to work. I picked that weekend for that matter (and it was also the only other weekend in September that I didn't have to work). Well when I found out he wasn't working I had to go to work. So I called his shop Foreman and asked him to put Dave on the schedule for that day, I explained the situation so the problem was solved. All in all it turned out great, we had a good showing. He did end up coming home a different way so he recognized a few cars, but he was still surprised that I threw him a party. 

My friend Ame Dickey of Dickey Design made the invitations and I got the yummy cake from The Cakery Bakery. I also got a GREAT deal on the lounge furniture through Exclusive Events, Inc.
