At this point, there’s little the American public doesn’t know about Hillary Clinton’s private life. But after years of collecting dust, the presidential candidate went to Instagram yesterday, and revealed one of her most intimate memories.

Twenty years ago, Hillary Clinton threw a Dolly Parton-themed birthday party. She put on a wig, busted out a skirt and channeled her inner Jolene.

#TBT to the time Hillary had a Dolly Parton-themed birthday party in 1995.

To celebrate #TBT, the Clinton campaign released a photo of the party on Instagram. The photo has since earned over 24,200 likes.

There’s so much to love in this photo — Bill’s belt buckle, Hillary’s hat and the misty, faraway look she has in her eyes. Approximately 150 guests showed up to the Parton party, The Spokesman-Review reported.  Revelers then celebrated her 48th birthday with square-dancing and a good old-fashioned barn cake.

During her 2008 presidential run, Hillary Clinton used “9 to 5” as a campaign song.
