Sabe's grandmother and 4 aunts+1cousin are visiting from Central Utah, so we took the kids out of school on Friday and visited the home of Thomas Jefferson, Monticello, which is located in Charlottesville--home of UVA. What a beautiful sight it was...this man had a vision what he wanted to create, along with 150 slaves :) Not to knock on him, but wasn't he the author of the Declaration of Independence, hence "all men are created equal"? Heck, he was a great man and we are fortunate to live in an area with such rich, American history. The kids had a grrrreat time and we ended the day with a great barbeque at Jennifer and Justin's house.

Oh how fun! I bet your area is SO gorgeous this time of year (or every time of year). Love how cute your little kiddos are - and it's always nice to see a picture of you - the one NEVER photographed! You're looking stylish and sophisticated.
Izzy is way too photogenic. Her little expressions kill me! She looks like Abby when I ask her if she wants ice cream. What a fun trip. Ya, so what's up with TJ being against slavery and having 150 of his own?
Leave it to you to make even a picture by the bathroom look amazing! What a beautiful day.
You are beautiful Jen--fun day and I love the sneak peak of the palace below, Jaxon is a cutie and Izzy can't be matched! Liv is a sweet heart.
