once again, it's good to be the birthday girl

Today I celebrated my birthday on Martha's Vineyard. Despite growing up in Massachusetts, this is my first trip to the island. It's lovely here, quaint and peaceful and sunny and not too cold.

My birthday included:
- chocolate pancakes
- alpacas!
- houses like candy-colored gingerbread
- a clam roll
- ice cream
- a lighthouse
- drinkies
- video chat hilarity
- delicious French food
- more drinkies
- family togetherness fun
- many wonderful birthday wishes

We have a couple more days here at the Vineyard, and then we're off to New Hampshire. No real Boston time on this trip, except for coming and going from the airport.

ETA: As always, Louise has awesome photos.
