chilling days

Thoughts, thoughts, thoughts, and yes more thoughts 

This last Sunday my family had dinner with my Grandma and Grandpa Tolman. As most dinners with grandparents go, you have to act on your best behavior, pass the food around the table instead of reaching over people like we do at home, you can't say your sarcastic remarks out loud, when your sibling (emma) eats all of the bread you can't get mad at her. Do you understand what I am talking about?

Well after everyone is done stuffing their faces full of Grandma's delicious dinner we begin to talk more and more. This is clearly my favorite part. Because I LOVE talking, but most of all I love hearing my grandparents stories. This last week we heard a story from my grandpa that will stick with me forever. 

I am not a hundred percent sure as to why the topic of plane crashes came up but it did. Little did I know my grandpa has been in a plane crash!!!! HE IS ALIVE! haha 

No his story was so cool. He told us about all of the emotions he had on the plane and told how the other people in the plane were all crying and calling their families and saying there good byes. But my Grandpa knew that he would be just fine so he just stayed calm and sat tight and "enjoyed" the ride. So as the story went on he told us that he had to help everyone get out of the plane as soon as it crashed. He said that he didn't realize the how dangerous this situation until he was looking from the out of the plane.

For me this was a really cool story to hear because it showed me that I can be brave in scary situations and that staying calm is the best way.
I am so grateful for my amazing and supportive grandparents. I am extremely grateful that my Grandpa loves journal writing and that one day I will be able to read about his adventurous life! 
Much love <3
Just so ya know I am not lying….
