It was christmas and this year I would be going to florida with Corey and meet his family.
After christmas was over of course I would be taking a trip to Kansas to spend time with Mom,Dad and Gage.

Kaitlin: Hey mom just to let 
you know that it will only
be Colby coming home
for the holidays

                                                     Mom: Oh ok well have a nice time.
Kaitlin:I will and
I'll be planning 
a trip to kansas 
very soon

                                           Mom: Great I can't wait.


All our flights are today so we finish off packing and get in our cars.

Ain't got a soapbox I can stand upon
But God gave me a stage, a guitar and a song
My daddy told me, "son, don't you get involved in
Politics, religions or other people's quoes"
I'll paint the picture, let me set the scene
I know when I have children they will know what it means
And I pass on these things my family's given to me
Just love and understanding, positivity
We could change this whole world with a piano
Add a bass, some guitar, grab a beat and away we go
I'm just a boy with a one-man show
No university, no degree, but lord knows
Everybody's talking 'bout exponential growth
And the stock market crashing in their portfolios
While I'll be sitting here with a song that I wrote
Sing, love could change the world in a moment
But what do I know?
Love can change the world in a moment
But what do I know?
Love can change the world in a moment
The revolution's coming, it's a minute away
I saw people marching in the streets today
You know we are made up of love and hate
But both of them are balanced on a razor blade
I'll paint the picture, let me set the scene
I know, I'm all for people following their dreams
Just re-remember life is more than fittin' in your jeans
It's love and understanding, positivity
We could change this whole world with a piano
Add a bass, some guitar, grab a beat and away we go
I'm just a boy with a one-man show
No university, no degree, but lord knows
Everybody's talking 'bout exponential growth
And the stock market crashing in their portfolios
While I'll be sitting here with a song I wrote
Sing, love could change the world in a moment
But what do I know?
Love can change the world in a moment
But what do I know?
Love can change the world in a moment
I'll paint the picture, let me set the scene
You know, the future's in the hands of you and me
So let's all get together, we can all be free
Spread love and understanding, 
positivity We,We could change this whole world with a piano
Add a bass, some guitar, grab a beat and away we go
I'm just a boy with a one-man show
No university, no degree, but lord knows
Everybody's talking 'bout exponential growth
And the stock market crashing in their portfolios
While I'll be sitting here with a song I wrote
Sing, love could change the world in a moment
But what do I know?
Love can change the world in a moment
But what do I know?
Love can change the world in a moment


A ton of tunes later, and we were at the airport.
"I can't wait for you to meet my family." Corey smiles.
"i can't wait to meet them." I reply.
We board the plane.

Multiple hours behind time, Corey and I had arrived in Florida.
Right at this moment we were waiting for our Uber to pick us up.
Whilst we wait we keep ourselves entertained playing games like rock,paper,scissors and having thumb wars.

The Uber arrived and we are on the road.
I watch the landscape pass us by as we drive 
along.

Miles later and we had arrived at Corey's childhood home.
"Ready?" He asks.
"so ready." I reply, and he knocks on the door.
"Hey mom." He says when she opens the door.
"Corey." she replies and hugs him tight.
"And you must be kaitlin." She adds embracing me into a hug.

We go inside and Corey introduces me to his three siblings: cenzey,courtney and cambrey.
"Nice to meet you all." I say.
We spend the afternoon hanging out and,
 I get to know Corey's beautiful family.
we play classic christmas games: monopoly, uno and chess.

It gets late and it's time to go to bed.
"So what do you think about those muppets." Corey asks.
"they're such sweet people." i answer.
I face Corey, our lips connect and we make out for a while before saying goodnight and go to sleep.


The next morning.The breakfast  table was full of joyful chatter.
"Let's do secret santa, we still have  three days before christmas day." Cambrey suggests.
"great idea." Courtney says.
Cenzey writes all our names on pieces of paper and put's them in one of corey's baseball cap.

We all pick one I get Courtney.Considering I had only met Courtney yesterday I
had no idea what I was going to get her.
Corey and I decided to go on one last shopping trip with his siblings.

Whilst Courtney, Cenzey and Cambrey look around I pull Corey aside.
"What does Courtney like." I ask in a panic
"uhhh dance, makeup and dolphins." He replies.
"Great thanks babe."  I say kissing his cheek before going to see what I can 
find.

I look around for a decent amount of time before I find anything.
Eventually i find a baby pink lipgloss and a glass dolphin ornament.

Christmas day , the whole family was helping  with cooking  the turkey meal.
I made the stuffing, Corey wrapped the pigs in blankets, Courtney kept an eye on the veg and Cenzey and Cambrey set the table togher.

Ultimately, we all sit down to a magnificent meal.
cheery laughter fills the air. Once we had finished we
 move into the living room.

The living room is quickly filled with teared paper.
Finally it's time to open our secret santa's. Courtney opens hers the smile on  her face gave me the feel of relief.
"I'm gonna guess Cenzey." She says."Cause we talked about dolphins the day before." she adds.
"Wrong, it was me." I say and she thanks me.

We go around Corey got me and he got me a  cute t shirt.
