Saturday I turned 28. Since I had to work that day, we spent Friday (my day off) celebrating. My favorite thing to do for my birthday is go to the beach. We live in Boston and my birthday is in April, so you have to understand that by “go to the beach” I do not mean sunbathe, swim, wade, or even make any real contact with the icy water. I just like to see the ocean, breathe the salty mist, and explore the shoreline. With the temperature around 50 and the cold Atlantic wind whirling around us, we were a little chilly, but it was still sunny and beautiful. I took photos of the waves, pebbles, seashells and seaweed (which I find inexplicably beautiful), but we realized aftwerward that we had no photos of us. No worries, you’re not missing much. Just imagine a guy in a Red Sox hat holding hands with a beached whale. 
P.S. Only 8 weeks ’till my due date!
