Anniversary Beach Party Weekend

We had a surprisingly good weekend. Scott was scheduled to work one of his looong shifts on Saturday and into Sunday morning, but when his surgery team found out it was our wedding anniversary on Saturday, they told him not to show up. Scott actually wanted to go in for a few hours to see a cool skin grafting surgery, but he was threatened with a bad grade if he dared show up on his anniversary. So we got Scott for a whole weekend!

We had our anniversary date on Friday night because we'd already lined up a sitter and we didn't know that Scott would be free until Friday. I met Scott at the hospital and we walked to a really yummy pizza place (one that we'd gotten pizza at for one of our first dates in Boston). We ordered a pizza and took it to the Esplanade, a park by the river in Boston. We ate pizza while watching the sun set and then took the train to Harvard Square for fancy cholesterol-filled desserts at Finale.
On Saturday, I'd planned to hang out with my track club since I'd thought Scott would be working. I did a cross country workout with some fast ladies, and then went to a club beach party. The fam came along and hiked during the workout and then partied at the beach. Phoebe loves digging her fingers and toes into the sand. We've been to the beach a few times this year and each time, she gets hyper and crazy on the beach and then naps wonderfully afterward.
Bruce did his usual beach routine: build piles of sand, dig ruts to make little rivers by the shore, and collect cool rocks.

Happy Anniversary Scottie the Hottie!
