Happy 2019!

2018 has come and gone, and now it's 2019! I'd like to think that throughout the past years I always did my best to be a kind, gentle, and loving person to all mankind, and for the most part I feel as if I did. I can always do better though, and I am totally thrilled to be starting out a new year with my family. I'd like to focus on the good things, and stay positive no matter what trials come our way. The past is the past, and to be honest no matter how many times we reflect on it it's good to just let bygones be bygones. Reflecting on the beautiful is what matters, but moving on from all the goodness that was done in past years is good too because that just motivates us to become a much, much better person!

Spring With Pink Lanterns & Twinkle Lights!

One of my favorite things to do during the spring is venture out to city center in d.c. and check out any new installations they might have put outside, and it looks like they decided to keep the pink lanterns that they hung up last spring when we first noticed them. They do make the shops outside appealing, and fun to shop (even though we really don't come here for the shopping.) We just love to walk around, and window shop, and get ideas on how to dress without breaking our bank account.

Spring In Washington D.C.!

East coast weather has been crazy with temperatures going up, and down, and as much as I was hoping to capture some amazing shots of cherry blossoms along the tidal basin this past weekend, it was a no go. Last week temps in D.C. were in the 70's with mild wind which made it a perfect time to go, but because we went over the weekend the weather was cold, and windy. It was so windy that it knocked off most of the cherry blossoms onto the ground all along the national mall. Luckily a sister at the visitors center told us about a residential area where they have an umbrella of cherry blossom trees. Most of the trees had some blossoms left so I didn't get too many great shots, but I did manage to spot a few trees with blossoms left, and just look how beautiful they are! Sure do love that cherry color!
