Spring is in the air

The weather the past two days has been absolutely beautiful! Sunny and in the low 70's. For those of you that have heard me talk about the weather here in Washington, you know it has been rainy, gray and COLD, and me being and Arizona native, you can imagine how excited I was about the latest weather. It's only supposed to last for a couple more days, so I have been soaking it up; taking walks, sitting out in the sun, keeping the windows open...

Right now the cherry blossom trees are blooming everywhere. The flowers have light pink petals and they look so pretty against the blue skies, so I took my camera on a walk with me this afternoon.

We have a park right across the street from our apartments complete with baseball fields, swing sets, a big walking trail and woods surrounding half of it. It's pretty cool and I'm looking forward to the summer time when we can spend more time outdoors.
