Want a great way to kick off the spring? Down at our nation's capital, Washington, DC, is celebrating with style. Every year it celebrates two weeks of festivities as part of the National Cherry Blossom Festival, this year from March 26-April 10, 2011. Parade, fireworks, concerts, art shows and hands-on activities for families to enjoy over the festival weeks make it a great choice for getting out of the house and discovering what spring has to offer. Not to mention, the beautiful sight of the blooming cherry trees. Here is a link to the family day event but if you click around on the website you will see that there is lot to do and see at the festival:

I will be there too. I look forward to exploring the streets lined with the cherry trees and see them blossoming, and some of the events look and sound like they would be lots of fun. I know its a week a way but I can't wait!!
Even if you are not in the area, you can certainly keep an eye out for the amazing signs of spring and tell me all about it. What's your favorite part of spring?
