...for a very special DAD!
Last Saturday was the very first time any of us have ever made a big fuss over one of our dad's birthdays. As he says, he never wants the attention and we know he would much rather be the giver than the receiver. He never asks for gifts, never makes requests for special occasions and therefore it was time to "treat" him well! Dad is the ultimate dad, he has always taken care of each of us and I will admit, I never overly worried about much of anything because I knew my dad would assist in anything that he could physically, mentally or emotionally fix!
We held our special occasion at Bob's Steak and Chop House in Plano. We had several guests of which many traveled in from out of town to be at our party! These first few pictures are when dad walked into the back room where he thought he was going to dinner with Tom, Pam and Cindy-that party of 5 turned in to 25 very special people waiting on him! The smiles you see here are the best...ear to ear and you can just see the happiness on his face!
The CAKE! Mandy ordered the cake from a bakery close to the restaurant and it was soooo good, the icing was awesome! Everyone went home with a party favor...carmel popcorn with chocolate drizzle and M&M's. Dad loves popcorn like this so we thought it would be a nice favor for everyone to take home-not that anyone could eat anything after that dinner! The trendy black, white and red are colors on the cake and favors are near and dear to dad's heart...both Texas Tech colors and the colors of his company Two Sate Oil Field!!
Mom and Dad, Pete Sandel and Julie...and the sweet picture that Michelle gave Pop of the girls!
Thank you to all who attended this special night!
We love you dad!
