Conference and Cherry Blossoms

This weekend was great! Conference was good, and I must say that Isabella (my niece) was there for 3 of the 4 sessions, and she was really good…it helps that she likes to color and we could strap her into a high chair so she was confined.

On Sunday morning, we went into DC to see the Cherry Blossoms. This is one of my favorite times of year, because things are starting to bud, and everything looks so beautiful. We left home pretty early, and got up there to fight the crowds for the 10 mile race. It wasn’t bad…I found a parking space quickly, and we didn’t have to walk too far. Here are some pictures from our day.

My sisters and niece...aren't the trees beautiful?

Look really close, this is what the tidal basin looked like 3 weeks ago...no flowers, not even a hint of them!

After we gazed at the Cherry Blossoms for a while, we waled over to the Washington Monument. On the way there we found a tulip garden and Isabella had to stop and smell the flowers.
