Cherry Blossoms

It's that time of year again...Cherry Blossom season! Daddy, Mommy, and Evan headed to the Kenwood neighborhood in Chevy Chase/Bethesda again this year to see the beautiful blossoms. It was a gorgeous day after work, so we started off by sharing a yummy ice cream treat. This child LOVES ice cream!I was wondering how Evan would react to all the flowering trees since he's a lot more inquisitive this year. He loved them. Evan started off by batting on the tree limbs, causing the flowers to bounce and some petals fell off. He loved staring at the limbs and trees...Beautiful flowers this year. We visited during the peak blooming time...Posing with Mommy...
And Daddy...The Kenwood neighborhood is so beautiful and where a lot of the "locals" go to see the blossoms. It's neat to go to downtown DC with the cherry blossoms around the monuments and tidal basin and all, but the crowds downtown are terrible. We visited Kenwood after work during the week and it was perfect.Evan's traditional pose in the blossoms...
My, how he's changed from last year...
After taking in the blossoms, Evan went swinging at a local playground. He had a blast!Cheese!
