AppleBlossom Week 2026 ๐ธ๐

Rainy days were Julie and Wally's favorite because they gave them the perfect excuse to invite all their neighbors out for grass sledding. Everyone would bundle up, throw on goggles, slip into trash bags, and grab whatever they could use to slide down the hill. Old baking sheets, pieces of cardboard, laundry baskets, and even wagon lids became makeshift sleds for the afternoon.
Before long, the friendly competition would begin. Someone always kept score, even if the rules changed every five minutes (cough cough Julie cough cough Sally cough). The winners earned a free baked treat from Poppy along with a twenty percent off coupon to eat at Howdy's place, which only made everyone even more determined to win.
They usually paired off into teams:
Frank was never particularly fond of getting dirty. They preferred things neat, orderly, and tidy, and mud stains were far from their idea of a good time. Still, for the sake of their friends and the person they loved, they did not mind compromising every now and then. By the end of the day, even they had to admit it was fun.
As evening settled in and everyone finally cleaned up, the neighbors would exchange their farewells before heading home for the night. Julie and Wally, however, always lingered a little longer. They would lie together in the damp grass, hand in hand, simply enjoying the feeling of the rain gently falling over them. Julie would softly hum a tune she remembered hearing from one of Wally's records, resting her head against his chest while listening to the steady rhythm of his heartbeat. And Wally? He would simply close his eyes and play with her damp, blonde locks. For a little while, the rain seemed to wash away every burden either of them carried, if only for the day.
Afterward, they would head back to Wally's house for their usual sleepover. Once they had washed up and changed into comfortable pajamas, they would curl together on the couch near the fireplace with mugs of hot chocolate in their hands. As the fire crackled softly nearby, the two of them would happily recount the day's chaos and victories to Home before eventually drifting off into a peaceful evening together.
