Semi-Charmed Life...

Thursday, June 24, 2010
is the name we gave our new boat. Matt decided to surprise us all and took the day off today so we could all go and pick up the boat before the weekend. We woke up early, made the drive from NJ to PA and went through the walk-thru of the boat and the in-water test of the boat itself. The kids seemed to enjoy the boat. Oliver didn't care too much for his life vest but he will get accustomed to it, eventually.

We brought the boat back this afternoon and registered it in NJ so we can go on the water legally. Matt and I took a boating course and got our boating licenses last week. We loaded all the mandatory gear on board and even dined on board the boat this evening in our driveway. We can't wait until our first real outing this weekend.

After debating if we would name the boat and what we would name the boat, we decided on the name today as we were driving to the marina and listening to Thir*d Eye* Bli*nd. Its one of my favorite bands of the 90s and when we heard the song today, we both thought it was a fitting title.
