After eating a delicious Thanksgiving meal at Aunt Patti and Uncle Ronnie's house, we ventured to their barnyard to take in the country.
Ben surprised me and roped a mechanical calf while riding a horse...
What?!?!...He's a Little Bit Country!

He had some "coaching" help from my Uncle Ronnie and cousin, Audrey Paige, and actually did a great job!

We missed Lindsay and Brett and the Hagan family this year....
But, still enJOYed a special day relishing in the gift of family and LOVE...
my heart swells with gratitude.
