A little Traveling

The past few days have been filled with family visits. My aunt, cousin, and her bf (who are below) went out of town on vaccation and winston-salem was on their way back so they popped in for a visit. We had a good time laughing at William who was hyped up on iced-coffee!

We arent't sure what's going on with the weather in Winston. It seems like everyday since we've moved in has been complete with a tremendous downpoor out of nowhere. We were getting ready to go to the gym and when we walked out this is what was happening. You probably can't tell by the picture but it was the hardest rain I've ever seen. Soooo we went back inside.
Monday we got ready and drove to Oxford where William is from. We mainly went to visit and run some errands with his family but we also got a few important things done like changing William's car's oil and giving it a MUCH needed wash!
We went out to dinner at Cracker Barrel with his family and then we played Mad-Gab with William's sister Victoria and her BF aaron. I don't know if anyone reading this has ever played that game but it's sort of weird. I guess this is one of those "had to be there" things but here goes: The point of the game is to guess the phrase from the cards but the cards have like mushed-up sentences on them. The only clue you can give your partner is whether to stretch out their words, pronounce it faster or so on. I laughed SOO hard at william, mostly because I was mad at him, because the card said "A Seal Den Full Hope", the answer obviously being "a sealed envelope" and he got the sealed part but he KEPT saying "den-full-hope". I was yelling "WHAT is a sealed den-full-hope?" HAHA. We laughed about that for a while but he eventually got better at the game.
We had to come back to Winston today because I had to have like a second interview/training session at my potential job today. I'm pretty sure I got the job but I should know for sure tomorrow. William's med school orientation starts this Thursday so we'll keep you posted on how everything's going!

  1. Yes I am probably going to comment on every post... but I laughed so hard at your story. Probably because I pictured you telling it, and could hear William's country voice saying "Den-full-hope" over and over! haha Sounds fun! :)
