We have been living in Charlottesville, Virginia for the past two and a half years while Scott attends medical school at the University of Virginia. Scott is usually studying, so Brighton and I have become pretty creative on keeping ourselves busy. As you all know, I was pretty upset when we found out that we were moving because we have the most amazing family and friends a person could ask for. Its taken a little while to get use to, but we love it thanks to very special friends. Life on the east coast is very different but fun. It is so weird to drive only a couple of hours and pass through several states. It is definitely georgous out here and there is plenty to do. We have gone up to Manhatten several times to visit Scott's brother and we go to D.C. and Richmond quite a bit too. It's also nice because the beach is only an hour and a half away. The history out here is amazing and the campus is beautiful, it was designed by Thomas Jefferson. For the most part eveything in this town is redbrick, black shutters and white columns, very colonial style. As you all know, Brighton and I travel back to Utah every six weeks to work for a few days. It is so great and we are loving it. So for now we get the best of both worlds.

Makeup Artist

I bought Bri an art set for her birthday because she is obsessed with coloring, crayons don't cut it. She must have markers. You would think the markers that come in a kids art set would be washable. Think again. I let her color in her highchair while I was cooking dinner and when I came to check on her, she had worked on this lovely canvas. I asked her what she was doing and she said , "makeup mommy". Come to find out, when I went to wash her face they were permanent markers. I especially love the pink eyeliner. Fabulous!
