The weather is getting warmer and Merrick is turning into a trendy monkey. He loves his colorful v-necks, white slip-ons, and shorter shorts. He's also ordered new shades and getting buffer by the minute. Can't wait till you guys see pictures of this new man! :)
Besides the weather, Merrick and I have been quite busy with the friend making business. We have been getting calls left and right asking if we want to do stuff! We've actually had to say no a few times with conflicts! It's pretty nice.
Peter and his wife Catherine our age and just got married a few months ago. They've recently moved here as well and don't have many friends so we've kinda attached to each other. Merrick met Peter at one of the hospitals he's at, he does something that pertains to the heart so they had some stuff in common. We've gone out with them a couple of times and are doing something with them on Thursday!
Next is Ricky Rat and Sludge, they are a little older than us, but AWESOME! We met them through our other good friends Mike and Stacey. They are old school, so they love going to indie bars, being on the boat, and just having people over for drinks and dinner. Ricky Rat and I have bonded and he is going to take me out fishing and crabbing in the next few weeks! You guys know how much I love fishing!! Which reminds me, I need to call Jane and ask her to send me her paper on "How to go Crabbing" and see if it's similar! :)
Also, we have some blind doubles coming up. We are going to finally meet up with Merrick's friend Josh (we met from our 12K-he worked in Greenville). We are meeting up with them on Sunday and he has some other friends from Greenville that just moved out here. So, we will see how that goes.
Merrick on the other hand is just waiting on the arrival of Pete. He will be here in 6 days!! It sucks that he can't be here this weekend cause we have a fun one coming up! He gets here Monday afternoon and the first thing he wants us to do is take him to the mall. I am going to have my hands full with these two. From what Merrick is saying they are going to do makes me nervous.
Hope everyone is doing well! I owe phone calls to a few of you and I promise I will call!! Love ya!
Side note: Kings of Leon are playing down the street from us Saturday and we're going! I remember seeing them at the Music Farm in Charleston like 5-6 years ago. AND (drumroll) I am getting my boxes this week!!! I am one happy girl!
Hey guys its Merrick. Yes we are starting to make a couple of friends and i cant wait for the concert and peter to arrive this weekend.

So if you are reading this Erin, we will be seeing you in a few weeks for the SC showdown. Go Panthers, they are horrible but should be good in the next few years.
