Olympics. Moving. Tortellini. Exhaustion.

First of all, I have to align myself with my friend Emily, I'm OLYMPIC CRAZED. Pretty much since the opening ceremonies I have been watching just about every event, final and qualifier I can catch. Plus, the mascots are actually really cute this year! Who couldn't love a little happy green panda thing? Or a panda thing in red, yellow, black or blue?! If you haven't caught any yet, you still have time to support the USA in the outstanding job they're doing, not just in athletics, but in their representation of our nation as a whole...I'm proud to be an American with these awesome athletes on the loose! Go USA!

Secondly, we have a new house! I know I already mentioned this, but I neglected to post any pictures or any more information because we were waiting on a closing date and I just didn't want to get my hopes too far up until there was an end to the waiting in sight. We're closing TUESDAY! That's pretty sweet, because that means that when we go out to Landry's Restaurant for crab that night, we'll be celebrating our new house AND our 2 Year Wedding Anniversary! What an eventful week. After we close on Tuesday, we'll spend the rest of the week getting the house painted and ready for our big move on Saturday.

Tomorrow night, we're having some new friends, Kellene and Chris, over for dinner! I made some tortellini salad and we'll probably have some fruit and Kellene is bringing blackberry cobbler (or parfaits, I can't remember). Anyway, we're excited to get to know these two a little better.

As I'm writing this, Tommie's been in bed for a half hour and it's only 10p.m. Suffice it to say, we have a ton ahead of us this week and have left a crazy wave of busyness behind us this past week. It's going to be a test of our limits to get everything done and for us to get to SUNDAY...but we'll get there, albeit probably very exhausted.

Now I'm going to watch the women's 100m track finals and then put myself to bed with my sleeping husband!
