First weekend of Spring

Well, technically last weekend was the first weekend of Spring, but this weekend it actually felt like it.  We meandered into the low 60s and the sun was out all weekend.

Yesterday we made our annual pilgrimage to see the cherry blossom trees in bloom at the Washington Park Arboretum:

There was a bit of bird watching as well:

The munchkin was delighted with all the blooms:

This was also the first weekend I haven't been at Norwescon for Easter since 1999.  There was lots of yardwork done instead, and I whipped up a tasty Easter dinner:

And dessert.  Because everybody loves a parfait!
