When should I be there?
Between 6:00pm and 6:30pm
How do I get there?
The address is as follows:
307 West Fork #1334
Irving, TX 75039
If you you get lost and need directions, do not call me. Contact Brad at 817-401-7703, or call my house number at 972-869-0556.
If you are coming from Tarrant County, take whatever road you have to take to get onto 114 East. Get off on the O’Connor / Wingren exit. Stay on the access road to Wingren. Turn Left at Wingren.
If you are coming from North Dallas, take 635 West to 35E South. Merge onto Loop 12 South and take the exit for 114 West. Get off on the Rochelle / Wingren exit. Stay on the access road to Wingren. Turn Right at Wingren.
If you are coming from Dallas take 35E North. Follow the exit for 114/183. Stay on the 114 West half of the road. Get off on the Rochelle / Wingren exit. Stay on the access road to Wingren. Turn Right at Wingren.
Once you are on Wingren, the next light is Las Colina’s Blvd. Continue straight until you are forced to turn right on West Fork. After turning right, make the next right that you can. Then make a right into the parking garage. Find a place to park. My building is directly East of the building you will park in. That means that, when you pull into the parking garage on the left, my building is on the right. I live in apartment 1334, but we are actually getting together in the courtyard which is in the center of my building. So, just open the gate, and walk around until you find the chewy water-fountany center, and everyone else should be there too.
What should I bring?
You and your smile are required. Everything else is optional though appreciated. You can bring birthday cards, going away cards, birthday presents, going away presents, brithday money, and going away money. You can also bring silly things to help decorate like a giant sign that says “HAPPY BIRTHDAY JACLYN” or “WATCH OUT SEATTLE, HERE SHE COMES”. You can also help by bringing food.
The following food items are needed. If you are going to pick up an item on this list, please comment here and say so. That way, everyone else knows what everyone else is bringing. At 5:00pm I will check the comments on this page, and I will go get whatever hasn’t been claimed already. If there is a name beside the item, that means it has already been claimed by that person. The party will have about 15-20 people. Please remember that when you bring food. If you cannot get ALL of the item, then, in your comment, state how much of that item you are getting, so someone else can get the rest.
- Hamburger Meat (not frozen patties. real, squishy cow)
- Hotdogs *Morgan: 2 8-packs
- Hamburger Buns
- Ketchup
- Mustard
- Sliced Cheese
- Tortilla Chips

If you want to get something that is not on this list, that is fine. Dip, cheese plates, crackers, vegetables, cupcakes, cookies, and all of that sort of thing are acceptable. Just please comment here if you are buying something, so that someone else wont get the same thing. When you do comment, post exactly what you are getting and how much of it you are getting (ex: 2 12-packs of Pepsi cans. 2 large bags of Nacho Cheese Doritos).
Please call me if you have any questions regarding what you should bring. You can call at the house number listed above, or on my cell phone at 972-670-7587.
How long will it last?
Until the last soul stumbles out of here.
Probably two to three hours. But, I’m sure some people will stay longer than others.
If I am coming, what do I need to do?
You need to RSVP. You can comment here (before 5pm), call me and let me know, or send me a text message. By RSVP-ing, you help us account for the amount of food to bring, and we make sure we find you before the party starts to ensure the “surprise”. Please RSVP. Even if you are pretty sure I already know you are coming, just do it again… just to make sure.
What if I have questions?
Call me. 972-670-7587.
If you are Joel and/or Emily and/or Justin:
Please call Wes. I sent him an email with all of this information. But he never wrote back. I think he would want to come, and I don’t have his phone number.
