I am a lifelong Tennesseean and want to welcome your family . I really like your attitude of becoming Tennesseeans. Please help us keep Tennessee as unchanged as possible. We like carrying our guns to guard against the Bearasauruses . The Bearasaures have been known to eat California's that try to Californize our green hills. Lol I liked your video and you have a beautiful family.

Good video, well done. I moved down 14 years ago from NY because of the job. I live up in the woods, south of Seymour with the Great Smoky Mountains behind my house. So beautiful and a lot more freedom down here. Great weather, low taxes, less rules, regulations, and fees.

Happy to hear you say you did not come here to bring the California culture with you, but rather to adapt to our way of life. Tennessee life was and is heavily influenced by conservative christian values; It is why southern life feels slower, simpler, and more relaxed. There is another religion here known as SEC football, but we wont get into that. Happy you chose Tennessee and hoping your family feels welcomed here and finds the better life you are looking for. GO VOLS!
