We are trying to make it a point to savor DC while we are here. Saturday we went down to enjoy the famous Cherry Blossom Festival. It was amazing to see the millions of blossoms. We have many cherry trees near our apartment but it doesn’t compare to hundreds of trees being all together. People were swarming everywhere. I am scared to see the July 4th crowds after seeing the crowds over the weekend. In addition to the Cherry Blossom Festival the Smithsonian Kite Festival was also taking place so we caught a glimpse of some kites on our walk in.

After walking around the tidal basin and seeing the beautiful flowers we met up with some relatives at Union Station for dinner. We are really enjoying having my extended family relatively close-by. When we return to DC between posts we will look forward to baby Jackson getting to know his relatives!
