    You're using the Genesis Sample theme which doesn't have a front-page.php. It looks like you created or copied a front-page.php from another theme, is that correct? What leads me to think that is that you have a closing main and div tag without the corresponding opening tags. See this post for more details: http://www.studiopress.community/topic/heads-up-invalid-html-in-aspire-showcase-and-digital-pro-front-page/

    Out of the box, the Genesis sample theme does not have a front-page.php. Nor does it have home page widgets. Your site has a front-page.php AND home page widgets. This is custom work that either you did or someone did for you. Whomever set up your homepage borred front-page.php from another theme that has the code problem mentioned in the link I provided. The solution is in that other post.

    You should probably reach out to the folks that built your site: http://ultimatewebdesigncompany.com/. This is their issue.
