One pregnant wife.
One old college friend.
2 of said college friend's family from Finland.
2 new friends met through said college friend.
1 expectant husband going out of his mind.
1 rather large dog who is quite confused by the pregnant wife and crazed husband.
What a fantastic night. Hope was in rare form, super talkative and super awake. Our friends (old and new) arrived later in the evening and we grilled burgers, brats, salmon burgers and corn.
We chatted late into the evening about family, cultural differences, politics (luckily, all of the same bent...even the Texan), the war and dogs. By then end of the night, we had only scratched the surface of solving the world's problems. Luckily, I think we will likely all meet up again to continue finding solutions.
What a fantastic night. Even the baby was in rare form, punching and kicking and putting on a show for us all to watch through Hope's belly.
My one regret? I fear that this is the last summer bbq we will get to host. Once the child is here, I sense a change in our household...one that requires a little more quiet and calm.
What a great summer!

As it turned out, we hosted even more cook-outs at our house. Since we had to stay home anyhow. :)
