Springtime in the City

Although mere mention of the word "Spring" makes my eyes start watering and my throat itch -- my perfect storm for allergies -- I absolutely love it.

And nothing epitomizes Spring in DC more than cherry blossoms.


We are lucky enough to have this tree in our front yard. Makes me happy just to see those pink/white blossoms when I look outside. At the end of their short season, when the blossoms drop from the trees, it'll look like a dusting of pink/white snow atop our grass.

Love it. L.O.V.E. IT!!


Of course, this little beauty in the yard makes me the happiest of all.
