Hanami 2013 Photos with Baby Yukata!

We had a marvelous time picniking at Anthony C Beilenson park in Van Nuys with our friends!

The park has lots of sakura (cherry blossom trees) surrounding a lake. They bloom early to mid March each year (roughly.) We hit peak on the cherry blossoms perfectly! I look forward to this all year long. I’m glad we were able to take the babies and have a nice time. What a lovely relaxing day.

I dressed the twins up in yukata (casual baby kimono!)

My husband got me a beautiful box of mochi to share from Fugetsudo!

Me and the two babies all in yukata. The twins’ yukata are from LuckyWang. I enjoyed wearing one of my kanzashi, too.
