Steve and I were hoping to go see the Cherry Blossoms in DC on Monday while he was off, but unfortunately the weather didn't quite cooperate and we didn't want to venture down in the misty rain. We wanted to go see the beautiful blossoms, so we went into DC on the Metro Thursday evening. We made it just before sunset, so we were able to see the trees for just a bit. This made for difficult picture taking opportunities though, so I used the time to experiment with my camera a little. It was tough because the flash was too harsh, but no flash was too dark. I played around with some manual settings, but I really wish I had an SLR so I could have more options. I've had one on my wish list on Amazon for a while now. Maybe one day...







I've enjoyed relaxing over spring break, but I really don't know where all the time went! Steve and I got up early today and went to the 7:30am service with Steve's parents at their church and then out to breakfast. Then we rode with my mom and step dad down to Charlottesville for an Easter lunch with my grandparents. We had a great day with family - now it's back to school tomorrow.
