That’s a lot to spring on them! A Virginia family got the surprise of a lifetime while posing next to the famed cherry blossom trees in Washington, DC — when former president Barack Obama photobombed the perfect shot.

The former president strolled by behind the children, wearing a baseball cap, a white long-sleeved shirt, dark-colored pants and sneakers.

Yes, that happened to one family recently. President Obama, the blueprint for “cool, calm, and collected,” unintentionally walked right through a family’s photo shoot during Washington, D.C.’s peak cherry blossom bloom. And the moment was everything.
