I know I always say this but we had the best weekend. Conference weekend is always amazing but this one was especially great. It started out a little rocky on Saturday morning with me having the stomach flu. I don't think I have ever been that sick before. Luckily Sterling was home and took care of the boys ALL DAY LONG. I felt better just before bedtime.
We made up for it on Sunday. We went on a long walk around Arlington Cemetery in the morning before conference started.
One of the many tulip trees in bloom at the cemetery.
We watched both sessions and then headed downtown in the evening to the cherry blossom festival to walk around. In the 5 years I have been here, I don't think they have ever looked with beautiful. Every single trees was completely covered with blossoms. The air smelled delicious!
We walked around the entire tidal basin. The boys were completely entertained by water, ducks, popcorn trees and lots of food.
Sterling and I were completely entertained by the same things plus all the dang sweet photo shoots going on. I have never seen so many girls dressed up and posing in the most unnatural poses. I wish we snapped some shots of them but you will just have to imagine how awesome they were.
Look at these trees.
There are blossoms everywhere.
General Conference + Blossom Fest 2011 = BEST WEEKEND EVER!
