The earth is definitely laughing today...

Happy Friday! Spring is officially in full bloom and it is going to be a gorgeous weekend! This flowering tree is right in my front yard and I couldn't resist stopping to take a picture of it. It also inspired me to compile a couple of my favorite quotes about flowers. Check them out below!

Do YOU have a favorite quote regarding flowers, spring, or blooming? Do YOU have a picture of a flower that you stopped to smell? Please share! What are your plans for this weekend? Take time from your busy schedule and literally stop to smell the roses- so often we take the most beautiful things in life for granted.
