Ahoy Matey!


This weekend we went to the lake -- We took Oscar, Ross, and Heidi&Nate. Tooling around the lake on a lazy Saturday....ain't nuttin' better. We tied up with some friends who decided to camp last night. Wow, they are brave. No way would I plan a camping trip in the summer.
Speaking of yesterday. It was super duper fun....Too bad that Summer is coming to an end. We are bummed that we have limited weekends on the lake :(
OH WELL! Our summer has been great, even if its gone waaaay to fast. We are hoping for a wonderful fall, and can't wait to keep on enjoying every bit of it!!!

Heidi& Nate, trusty deckhands --- Um, well, deckhands nevertheless.




Oscar Boo-Boo, our First Mate. Ever watchful over his friends and family.
Ross, the boat's bosun. Not to be confused with bozo.



Oscar thought he saw some pirates - Talking about barking up a storm....I mean, you see the storm clouds right? He was furryious. We were soooo glad he was around. His bark scared them off.
My captain, the Hubs! He kept everyone under control, and got us home safely. We couldn't have a better or more trusted man guiding us around the lake.












Other than the fun we had at the lake, this week was uneventful. Nothing fun to report, and nothing bad happened.

Hello family plan......

.....okay, so no, I don't mean we are becoming a family. These are our only kids.
Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb.













Drew and I spent all week reorganizing bills, merging bank accounts, finishing moving furniture, and updating cell phone services. Needless to say, we were FRUSTRATED!!
I no longer have a nice, cool, clean parking space. I now have more storage for furniture. And its not even the good kind -- Its fratty furniture! LOL. Actually most of Drew's furniture is nice and will be used again. Its the other, ' honey I don't want to part with the Futon,' stuff that is sitting in the 'what was my and is now our' garage. Merging, I mean, marriage is fun!
All kidding aside, I took an advanced negotiation class thru work this week. Learned alot of stuff. So after Drew locked himself out our AT&T account, I decided to use some of my newly learned skills on AT&T. They apparently were refusing to talk with him because he guessed the wrong code. I think that they missed the part that he wanted to PAY (on time of course) them and had QUESTIONS about the BILL. Hmmm....well, for AT&T my skills didn't work. Drew and I finally got so frustrated, that he cancelled his personal AT&T service plan....Vowing never, ever to actively seek out service from AT&T and to slowly take away all of the business he was doing with AT&T. Riiiight....we'll just see how the mega-conglomerate survives without the Muirheads.
So Drew got a new phone -- Its a Blackberry Curve. Merging names and checking accounts at the bank was much easier. It took about 5 minutes. Love SunTrust!!!
