Fifth Anniversary Beach Party







The big day finally arrived. We spent the morning running errands . . . picking up the catered food, cake from Costco and a fish balloon. Got to the beach and had help setting everything up. We counted 60 people . . . family, friends and DPYC buddies. Everybody had fun visiting, eating and drinking and enjoying the beautiful day. Some swam in the ocean, a few played bocci ball, but most of us just sat around talking and catching up. Wendy gave the boys some money to rent bikes (see photo of Riley). Dave Booker took the boys out fishing that day and they caught lots of fish!

We sang Happy Birthday to all those with August birthdays, then cut and served the anniversary cake. Dennis and Ellie Knight brought avocados from their grove to share with the crowd. Toward evening, we built a bonfire and, of course, made s'mores.

Thanks to all who came and shared this special day with us. We loved it!!!
