Cherry Blossoms 2012

We had the most fabulous weekend. We spent lots of time outside and with friends. On Sunday, we decided last minute to head into the city. Much to our surprise, the cherry blossoms were out in full bloom. Because we have had such an early spring, the blossoms came on much earlier than usual. Which is good for us locals, because the crowds weren't as big this year. Usually fitting a stroller on the path is a nightmare, but last night it was just perfect. We met up with some friends and spent 2 hours walking around enjoying every last blossom.

Enjoy.

My boys.



Little Man walked the whole way and loved it. The boys loved the "popcorn" trees.
It seems like every year the blossoms get more beautiful. The tidal basin with the memorials in the background makes for the most gorgeous backdrop. The boys are pretty cute too!
