And many more…

Today, I turned 28 and I’m feeling good about it.  At this point, I enjoy aging because I continue to hope that age makes me a bit wiser. I know this won’t last forever though. 

I just really wanted to lay on the beach and do some leisure reading, so we all headed down at around 10.  It was still cloudy and chilly, and today, it was also really windy.  I read for awhile, and watched the boys play bocce for awhile, but I was getting cold and sand was all over me, so I decided to go back to the house with my mom for some lunch.

After lunch, Ben, Matt and I went to see a lighhouse nearby.  We were going to go up to the top, but the line was really long and the lighthouse was closing soon.  It was neat though.

When we got home from the lighthouse, Mom and Guido were working on dinner.  They made a delicious greek salad and pasta with vegetables.  Then, we had a Dairy Queen ice cream cake (with cookie dough ice cream!) for dessert!  I got some nice gifts from the family, but my favorite was the flower pot Katie made for me.  It’s my favorite color and it matched my sweatshirt today!

Dan posted a bunch more pictures on the “piictures” tab, so enjoy!
