Impatience is a Virtue, Right?

I am the kid that searches for Christmas presents. I want to be given birthday presents 5 days ahead of time. I want to give people their Christmas presents on December 20th. I shop on Christmas Eve solely for the reason that I do not have to wait to give presents.

I hate surprises. I love being surprised, but hate the build up. Don't tell me you have a secret. Don't. Then I will want to know. And five minutes ago. I am awful at surprises. This is the reason that I got proposed to in my sweatpants on my front porch with almost only one eye of makeup. It was the only way poor Andy could get me by surprise. I can't deny it. This is a serious character flaw, but I would be lying if I said I want to fix it.

This explanation brings me to the hardest thing I have ever had to do to date. I love the Olympics. I love the precious gymnastic girls. I cannot wait to watch them tonight. SO IMAGINE MY INNER-TURMOIL WHEN I SAW THIS....


I didn't click on it. I am now ban from all forms of technology... My name is Megan and I have a problem.

Here's to hoping that the article reads Gold!  Go Team USA!!

GO Team USA!

Our friend Brandon came in town and that meant a night of fun fellowshippin' at his parents' house. We celebrated friends, the Olympics, and all things American. Like Hot Dogs and Homemade Ice Cream. We truly love this family.

Y'all. The Olympics tonight were awesome! Spoiler... America is better :)!! The girls gymnastics was amazing. It was almost as inspiring as '96. These girls stomped everyone and I am so happy! Swimming also didn't disappoint.

I think we were all pretty proud to be an American!! These pictures sum up our evening pretty perfectly.

Side note... I might have made t-shirts for me and bubba.
