The Rotunda
(the sweetest UVA student took this picture for us - she saw us struggling to take a self-portrait and offered to take it for us!)
The Academic Village
(I couldn't get a good picture of the entire "village" so this is one pavilion)
Walled Gardens
(these were behind every pavilion in the Academic Village and anyone could enter and take a peek)
Students walking around the lawn wearing bathrobes (Lol!) :)
After our tour of UVA, we grabbed some lunch at The White Spot in the "Corner" area.
Mmmm ... I wish I had a "Gus" burger right now!
Then we traveled to Ashlawn-Highland which is the farmhouse that belonged to President James Monroe.
The Monroes lived in the white section of the house; the yellow was added by subsequent owners. It was a fairly small house; I was kind of surprised at the size!
The farm had a flock of sheep that were descendants of the original flock of sheep owned by the Monroes, chickens, and peacocks.
Adorable lambs!
This guy was giving me the stink eye the whole time we were there. I'm pretty confident that he didn't like me much.
Peacocks definitely know that they're beautiful :)
For our anniversary dinner, Peter and I went to C&O Restaurant in downtown Charlottesville.
I didn't take a picture of our food because we inhaled it way too quickly for that to happen :) It was soooo delish! What a great way to end our special day!!!

I'd like to take a break from writing about the anniversary of my wedding day to wish these two crazy kids a very happy wedding day tomorrow :)
