Linger longer with dear friends...

Andrea and I went out to Linger (in the Highlands) to celebrate her birthday. We always have so much fun together, and we always linger longer than we say we intend to. We really enjoy our rare and wonderful time together without our children around, but we also try to get together with the kids to do fun stuff, too. With four kids in tow, however, we've learned to accept the fact that we'll be lucky to get through a single conversation. Having said that, it's fair to say that even after almost five years of this now (both of our boys are turning 5 in September), we are still trying to adjust our expectations.

Whether for good or for bad (ie lots more calories) we've discovered Little Man Ice Cream in the Highlands. Have you been? There's always a crazy line, and now we know why! The flavors are super yummy, and the experience is just fun. The last time we went there we finally got to try their claim to fame: salted oreo. It's worth the money and the wait, and the nice thing is that it doesn't actually cost a fortune!
