Default KK Ok to not reraise here?

Villain has been aggressive raising just about everyhand to $1 - $2. Has not seemed too terrible yet, although definitely over playing an ace, as I have seen some showdowns with A2, A5, etc... Definitely have not seen him make a preflop raise like this before. As always sorry for the format from bodog, I will try to keep it clean.

Villain - $80
Hero - $47

NL .25/.50
Hero has K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Villain (UTG) raises to $4.75, 1 fold, Hero calls, 6 folds.
My thought here was the Villain definitely took care of raising enough for me so I do not have to give away my hand. It is possible he is playing AA but also could definitely be Ax with the history I have seen. I know I am probably paying off AA, but if an A comes on the flop, I can get away from the hand if he shows aggression. I can also represent a set on a non A flop although I doubt that will work.

Flop ($10.25) 6 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 3 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].... Villain bets $6, Hero reraises to $20, Villain calls.

Turn ($50.25) 10 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].... Villain checks, Hero goes all in for $19.25, Villain calls.

Anything wrong with this line? I normally am very aggressive with premium hands but I thought this line gave me the flexibilty to get away cheap, as well as hide the value of my hand and get it all in the middle by the turn without an A.
