there'll be more afternoons like this.

it's really spring. there is a cool crisp breeze but the sun is strong and there are all sorts of bloom everywhere we turn. it's pink, yellow, white and amazing. we're finding ourselves venturing outdoors more now. it's made us realize how cooped up we were during the brutal winter months. this is definitely a nice change of pace and i'm looking forward to more afternoons like the one we had over the weekend. 

although we spent a lot of time outdoors, we also spent a lot of time sleeping. yangkyu's been trying to catch up on his sleep these past few weekends - ever since he switched his job a few months back, his commute has been kicking his butt. it's significantly longer and both our days start out much earlier. he's starting to condition himself to go to bed earlier so that he also gets an 8-hour sleep. we're also adding more fruits to our daily diet and will start on some sort of juicing regime. i've been staking out some recipes out on pinterest that i'm eager to try out. 

how were your weekends? 

here are some pictures from our saturday & sunday. 

// saw a few of these in bloom right where we live and so i just had to ask yangkyu to pull up so that i can take a few snaps. i am always in awe of how the dmv {dc, maryland, virginia} area turns pink and white at the start of spring. it's really one of the prettiest sights i've seen. // 

// picked these guys up at home depot and gave them a new home on our windowsill. they are the cutest little things. // 

 // found a gem of a place called burke lake park. we've been living in northern virginia for two years but we're still figuring out our neck of the woods. it'll take some time to get to know our town like the back of our hand but hopefully we'll get there. //
