Cherry Blossom Takeover


Spring is officially here! Sunday and Monday were the most beautiful days ever and the Cherry Blossoms were in full bloom. I took advantage of this and hit up my favorite spots and one new one. Spring is my favorite season since all the beautiful flowers are blooming, I've been filling my apt with tulips, daffodils and the fragrant hyacinths. Also did some spring cleaning of my closet (more on that on my next post) but in the meantime been bringing out my fun skirts to wear.

There's quite a few spots in DC where you can see the Cherry Blossoms so I started with the
Arboretum (where I went last fall) to see the early blooms.
Then I went for a sunrise run around the Tidal Basin and couldn't believe how empty my scenic run was!!! Is this not the most beautiful place ever to run? You can find my outfit in this post.
I participated in the Cherry Blossom 5K Race which started at the Washington Monument and was packed with people!





Then I went to Bethesda, MD to walk around the Kenwood neighborhood. I didn't even know this place existed, it was blocks and blocks full of Cherry Blossom trees! Tons of people were out having picnics or just strolling around. It was so gorgeous!!!




Looks like we have rain in the forecast for the rest of the week, but that's okay I have some fun things planned for this week including cooking dinner for friends tomorrow, a paint night, clothing swap party, a bookclub meeting, and a hike this weekend. I also set up a personal challenge for me to take 10 yoga classes this month! Check out my spring reading list if need some reading material for your next picnic. My favorite perfume this spring has been Marc Jacobs Daisy Dream it's a nice light floral fragrance.
