Birthday

Mike and I had a great time at Lake Quinault Lodge on the Olympic Peninsula.  We celebrated my 70th birthday by spending 3 nights at the lodge with many hikes on scenic trails around the area.

Dinner at the Oakes

This evening we had dinner at Diane and Scott's with Anne and Ivan who were visiting from Texas for a week.  Tyler and Lucas were very entertaining as we enjoyed our dinner of fresh Cod, couscous, delicious vegetables, green salad, and pie and ice cream for dessert.  It was a very nice evening.

Tyler arrived to begin a game of soccer with Mary.  Tyler was the happy winner.

Mike turns 75!  Dinner at Armontes Pizza and then home for ice cream cake, cards, and gift.

Diane and Scott were the proud winners of the Academy Award contest 2014 with 5 correct guesses each.  Tyler provided the winner answer for Best Animated Film.
