Calvin and I are doing well. We feel ready for Kathleen, well as ready as you can be not really knowing what to fully expect. And in the mean time we're doing the best we can to enjoy these last weeks of being just the 2 of us. We have an anniversary trip planned to Asheville the first week of March, 2 baby showers are planned, and Calvin will be turning 30 on March 18th! So we have a lot to celebrate along the way.

Tonight is the first night and Calvin asked to have the honors of making his best burger ever. This will be the bar to compare all others to. The comparisons will be based on the basic or most famous burger each restaurant offers with a side of fries, and maybe a little salad if they offer it to make us feel better. No splitting on the burger tour. And we'll take notes along the way to try to discover what we like best about each place.
Tonight's meal was very good. My husband is a great cook. However, I do not believe the burgers cooked exactly as he had planned so the meat ended up being a little strong/over seasoned. We have leftover patties, so maybe a few little changes will help when he makes them again on Friday when Brooke and Adah come to visit. Calvin's biggest complaint is that he misses his outdoor grill; it was the only thing he was really sad to see go when we sold the house. I just keep reminding him that there will be another...
