LOL. Happy Friday, folks.

"I get by with a little help from my friends..."

Brad, the pups and I went to visit our favorite Simpsons in Virginia this past weekend and we had a blast! We got to see Aunt Mary-ellen in Olde Town Alexandria for lunch (yay!), enjoyed the beautiful weather and got some great girl time with some awesome Delta Zetas, Meredith, Inez, Tracy & Clytie! We went to dinner at Cafe Berlin on Saturday, which was delicious (seriously, if you ever get the chance - go!) and can't wait to do it again soon!

LOVE these guys!

Happy Monday, kids.
