Spring is Springing – Floral Segment with Our Friend Harry

"It's spring fever.  That is what the name of it is  And when you've got it you want  - oh, you don't quite know what it is you do want, but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you want it so! "  Mark Twain

We want Spring!    

S[ring reminds us to embrace joy & love.  We bid farewell to cold, dark days of winter, and we welcome new beginnings and new possibilities!

Our snowbird friends have returned or will soon start drifting home and what to do to celebrate that reunion?  

Have a floral party!!

We spent an afternoon at The Garden at Old Irving with Harry teaching us how to arrange flowers as we sipped champagne.  It is the [perfect girlfriend "Spring Fling"!

The fragrant Spring blossoms - the laughter as Harry gently but firmly guides our untrained florist eye - the pride and joy as our finished bouquets were surprisingly beautiful - and the pleasure of taking our masterpieces home for our families to enjoy!

The possibilities are limitless for fun - just as Spring is the season of fresh beginnings.

As Frances Hodgson Burnett stated, "If you look the right way, you can see that the whole world is a garden."

Is there any better way to spend a Spring day than in a garden?

We think not!!
