Cherry Blossom Fesitval

Well, we finally made it to DC! Yep ... that's me in front of the Washington Monument:
BB and me under the cherry trees:
Don't we look so happy? Here are our shadows:
The monument and the sky through the trees:

There were a lot of people there (my brilliant idea to go on Easter Sunday). We also went to the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History. The exhibit on human evolution was very cool.

So far, in 2010, I have gone to see the cherry blossoms, made 1 pair of socks, and started a garden. There is still a lot to do!

2010!

Here are ten things I want to do this year:

1. Make jam
2. Go see the cherry blossoms in D.C.
3. Paint the dining room
4. Go on a beer and cheese tour of Vermont
5. Knit 12 pairs of socks
6. Have a garden
7. Make pickles
8. Take an art class
9. Sew slipcovers for the armchairs
10. Go to spinning (somewhat regularly)

Let's see how many are done by then end of the year!
