Dinner with Friends

It is always a struggle for me to justify leaving Ava to go out somewhere. She used to come to the office with me everyday, but as she has gotten older, she has been spending most afternoons with grandparents, so when I get off of work and on weekends, I want to devote my attention to family time. However, I also know that it is good for Adam and I to go out with just adults and not have to worry about a little person that may or may not have a fit while we are eating dinner!

A few weeks back we went out to eat with our very dear friends. When we went to Ruth Chris's a few months back, we already started talking about the next nice place we would eat and both Grant and Leslie said we should try The Melting Pot. They had both been, but neither Adam nor myself had, so we were excited to try it. We always have so much fun with Grant and Leslie. Before we knew it we had been sitting there for 3 hours and stuffed ourselves full. (At this point we commented that we sure were glad we didn't bring Ava, she wouldn't have sat still long enough to get through the 3-hour meal!

We also recently found out that Grant and Leslie are expecting and we are soooooo excited- We know they are going to make great parents!

Ps. The melting pot's house dressing (similar to a honey mustard) is great, we both bought a bottle to take home.
