So our country life in Bassett Virginia is going very well with so many adventures and exploring going on in our family.

The kids and I have not spent Thanksgiving day in the states before so this year we made it a point to do that.  And it was just beautiful to be able to have a day set aside to just give thanks and eat and laugh and tell stories.

This year the kids great grandmother  (we call her Mama Ruby and she is 84yrs and looks amazing)  told us stories about her youth and she also made us lots of food cooked with love. Soul food is what Americans call her food.

Here are a few pictures of our adventures
