"They've never drove through Indiana; met the man who plowed that earth, planted that seed, busted his ass for you and me...Or caught a Harvest Moon in Kansas...They'd understand why God made those flyover states" - Jason Aldean

We can't believe how fast this summer has flown by so far. Sara just got back from Huntington Beach, California for the SAIA's 2012 Annual Convention and Exposition. It's been a crazy couple of months getting ready for the event, but it was well worth it as she got to meet so many members of the Association and discuss plans for the future. It was a long trip and she is still trying to get used to the time difference :).
On the way back home from the airport, the Jason Aldean song above was playing on the radio and she looked at Brian and smiled. During her trip she had so many people from across the country ask her why she lived in the middle of nowhere, and even looking out into the sunset on the Pacific Ocean, she could just smile and think of all the wonderful things waiting for her back home.
Here are a few snapshots from her trip...

With summertime flying by, we are hoping for another lake weekend soon, either here in Kansas City or a trip to Kentucky Lake to visit dear friends. We love living in the heart of the country, with so much to do even during the 100+ degree stretch. Today we went on a tour of the Boulevard Brewing Company and enjoyed some local flavor before coming home to lounge around with our pup, Tequila.
It's good to be home.
Until next time,
Sara & Brian
XOXO
