Dinner With Friends

This evening we went to Manchester for dinner. Some old friends invited us and several other couples over. It was a relaxed and fun evening. The conversation was interesting and everyone was very comfortable to "be with." Each couple was different from the others, but there were clear threads that connected us with similar experiences- either through family life, child-rearing, our faith, work experiences, travel, etc.

(For some reason I thought we were supposed to arrive at five, but I guess we were early, with the others arriving between 5:30 and 5:45. Nevertheless, we were welcomed graciously and our faux pas was politely overlooked.)
