Tyler's 2nd Birthday at Newcastle Beach Park
This afternoon Tyler had another birthday party, this time at Newcastle Beach Park in Bellevue. Mary and Mike arrived early to claim two picnic tables and set up the birthday trimmings. Ruthie and Jack arrived next followed by Jeannie. The wind was blowing strongly although it was a fairly warm day. Then Scott appeared with the Birthday boy on his arm! Jim and Vickie soon arrived, then Diane coming from work. Gail soon showed up and finally Sandi and Dick to make a very nice group of guests. The meal was delicious with everyone providing a special dish. Tyler had a great time chasing balls hit by Jimmy, enjoying the play area, throwing stones in the water, and eating birthday cake, among other activities. We all had a great time!
