I am so excited to go home to Kansas this weekend. It doesn't seem to matter how old I get or how long we've lived away, I love to go home! Now please don't misunderstand me the drive feels like an eternity! (I hate that part)
We pull into our old and dear hometown and I just get excited...wondering who I will run into at wal-mart or Dillons. (oops I typed Kroger first, wow we have been gone a long time!) I know that my mother in law will have everyone over at least once for an awesome dinner like only she can make. And that she will feed us literally until we can't eat anymore the whole time we are there! We'll all play a very vicious game of killer uno...which I will lose horrifically!
Then it's out to the country to visit my mom and dad which is really fun in the summer. We get to eat all dads awesome produce from his garden and sometimes if we time it right we can play with his lab puppies he sells. Mom and I will sit in their living room and catch up on everything! Dad will finally give in and make me tapioca pudding and all will be right with the world!
It's hard living so far away from family. I feel like we miss out on so much being away, but that just makes me cherish my time at home even more! Enjoying the fun and laughter you have just being you with your family.
So even if you don't have to travel 9 hours to be with your family, make it a point this weekend to get together and do something fun before summer is just gone! That's what I am going to do!
Please pray with me we have a super safe, fun trip!
His greatest blessings to all! :)
