my family and i finally got the chance to go to kansas! last time we got snowed in, and this time we decided to fly. which was a good choice. a great choice. the boys did a pretty amazing job flying. all of them were excited and my sister said when you would ask vinny if he wanted to go to kansas he would say "sure do."
the country turns out to be quite relaxing with the no cell phone service, no internet, no cable, no starbucks. we used to visit our family about once a year, but i havent been in about 5 years. everything was exactly how i remembered. the smell, the feel of the humidity, the sound of the bugs at night, the furniture in the house. everything. i love going back to places that dont change. but when it came to the actual people we were visiting it was a whole different story. my cousins were all grown up. when i used to come visit we would catch craw-dads, sneak into abandon houses, ride bikes and sleep on the trampoline. are we too old for that? i hope not.
i love visiting atchison kansas. i love getting away and experiencing that which is the country life. i love jamie's biscuits and gravy. but more so its just good to see family. seeing aaron with dante. seeing bob take the boys on the four wheeler. going to the fort sale with sissy. i love you guys and thanks for having us. no matter how much time has passed i know there are things that will not ever change and i just love that.
