Yesterday, SarahPowers came to visit us and we had pizza, and slush puppies, and toured downtown Winston-Salem, and had a surprise birthday party for Julie, and played Trivial Pursuit (and won) and that’s it.

Julie’s Coming Today!
Little baby (almost all growed up) Julie and her boyfriend are minutes away from our house. We’re so excited to play all weekend! And… It’s absolutely beautiful out in the wild outdoors. Word.
’85 Dolphins
