V O I L A !! We had a few warmer days (and a couple of extremely windy days) this week and Sakura is finally in full-bloom! The photos would've turned out a lot nicer if it were not so cloudy, but here they are my first sakura shots of this year, fresh from this afternoon. I rode around on my bike with sparkling eyes, it was so so pretty!! And that memo on the chair says "Please use this to sit on and enjoy watching sakura." How sweet! It made me smile even more :)

P.S. There is a "SAKURA" giveaway at Fine Little Day!! You might win some pretty sakura items such as a masking tape, dish cloth or paper balloons! Yay!
