Maddie the Furball

We have a brush called the Furminator. It gets a lot more hair out than a normal brush. We got this much hair from two 30 min brushing sessions with Maddie.

Down to the Lake

Michael helped our friends from Bible study move this weekend down to Greenville, S.C., so we decided to spend the rest of the weekend at the lake. In case you haven't noticed the reoccurring pattern (lake, beach, lake...)we've been mooching off of family this summer visiting Michael's grandparent's at Emerald Isle and my parents at the lake house in SC. It's been great being able to spend time with our families though as well as get in some mini-vacations!

Beach Bums

We went to the beach for a long weekend. We hung out with Michael's family, and Michael played some tennis with his cousins, Andrew and Molly.

At the Lake

Last weekend we went to the Lake for Grant's graduation. Here are some pictures from the weekend.

Grant's UGA Graduation

The main reason we went to the lake was for Grant's graduation from UGA. Here are a few pictures. Its like where's Waldo but Grant is behind a guy who has a white frisbee on his cap. Congrats Grant!

Tall's in Town

Ashley's parents came into town last weekend for Ashley's cousin's art show in Chapel Hill. On Saturday, Michael's parents came up to meet us all for lunch, and afterwards we walked through Duke Gardens. It was so nice to be out in this beautiful spring weather!

Ikea

This past weekend we headed down to the new Ikea in Charlotte to look for some new furniture for our apartment. It took us over 3 hours to make it through the entire store, but we ended up finding some great furniture for our living room and bedroom. After a successful shopping trip we headed back to Durham, where we quickly realized we had a lot of furniture to assemble! The electric screw driver we got as a wedding present came in very handy to say the least. We got it all put together though, and our apartment is starting to feel a lot more like 'ours' instead of 'his and hers.'
