This weekend, we were able to escape
with Justin's family to Asheville, NC
to take in the beautiful scenery
and to visit the amazingly majestic Biltmore Estate.
The colors were so pretty, and the sky was a perfect blue.
That's just a side view of the house, from one of the gardens.
This is Justin's brother, Tim, his wife, Shannon,
and their beautiful daughter -- our niece -- Emily Grace.
My husband belongs on a dollar bill... don't you think?
It was unseasonably warm that afternoon,
so we took little breaks to rest and rehydrate.
Here are the original 4 - Justin, his parents, and his older brother.
And here are the Vaughan boys with their beautiful wives. ;)
Pictures don't even do justice to how pretty the Biltmore is...
See what I mean?
It's the biggest residential home in the United States.
Here's a cute one of Emily. I love that girl. :)
...and so do her "Mema" and "Papa"...
...and her mommy and daddy...
...and her Uncle Justin!
At night, the estate became something magical,
like a castle out of a fairy tale.
Emily actually did call it a castle,
and kept wondering where the princess was!
I wish I could show you the inside, but no cameras or phones were allowed.
I assure you, though, the inside is even better than the outside.
Especially all decorated for the holidays!
Now, who's in the mood for Christmas? (raises hand)
(Thanks to my lovely sister-in-law, Shannon, for these photos!)
