Mount Vernon

George Washington's tomb. Martha Washington's tomb is at his left.

The tomb honoring the 300+ slaves that worked on the Washington plantation and died there.

The place of his original tomb. He had it written in his will to one day bury him and his family more properly...thus his current tomb.  I thought that was interesting.

Walking from his house to the edge of his property overlooking the Potomac River.

George and Martha Washington's house.


Jake sitting on the wall overlooking the Potomac River. It was so pretty!

Ashley...hangin'out.
Here are a few pictures from our Mount Vernon Trip right before we moved. I loved it! It was one of my favorite places to visit in D.C......good thing we could fit it in right before we moved.....not like we hadn't lived there for 11 years or anything!
