We’re so excited! There was a lottery system for obtaining tickets. When applying you had to rank the five different time slots according to what you wanted. We got our second choice, which might actually be a better option for Du.
I’m praying for warm weather…at least for sun!
March and April are going to be great months in the DC area. The Cherry Blossom Festival will be starting up soon and running for several weeks. I’ve never been here to see the blossoms and the beginning of spring. There’s been a lot going on throughout the winter, but now things will start being held outside again:
- Kite Festival
- Japanese Festival
- Capitals Hockey Game (this won’t technically be outside, but we still get to do it in a month)
- Block Party
- Art Shows
- Fireworks Show
- Lantern Lighting
- White House Easter Egg Roll
- Parades
- (and a trip to Hershey, Pennsylvania thrown in just for fun)
Come on Spring!
That is SO cool! I’m quite envious…. I know you’re girls will have a blast (and y’all too!). Can’t wait to see pictures of all the cool stuff y’all get to do this spring…. hint, hint. 😉
Hurray -I always wanted to do that!
I’ve moved back to Blogspot…FYI 🙂
That is great! Both my husband and I were unsuccessful. Hopefully next year!
That was a great strategy though, for both you and your husband to apply. I didn’t know what to expect, this is the first year that we’ve been here to participate. I’m praying for sun. I don’t even care if it’s cold anymore, just don’t be raining!
I just clicked over and noticed that you just started your blog. Congrats and have fun! It’ll be a great journey with lots of ups and some frustrations. I wish you all the best!
Wow! That’s a lot of activities. Here’s hoping that spring weather is in fashion this year. 🙂
