Seven on Saturday: An April Recap

Happy Saturday, friend! Wow, it has been a busy April full of busy Saturdays!!

We celebrated our 34th anniversary in Nashville the last weekend of March and while we were there, we visited the lovely Cheekwood Gardens to see all the gorgeous tulips in bloom!

A vibrant field of yellow, red, and orange tulips in bloom captures the essence of spring—a perfect scene for a Seven on Saturday stroll, with people walking in the distance under a cloudy sky and trees surrounding the grassy area.

Kyle and Renee came to Louisville for a visit the following weekend.

We headed to Knoxville for Miss Eden’s 2-year-old birthday party! (Can’t believe she’s already two!) It was the cutest Sesame Street party!!

A smiling toddler with a pink bow and Sesame Street t-shirt holds small Elmo and Abby Cadabby toys while sitting on a couch with blue floral pillows, capturing a sweet moment perfect for an April recap or Seven on Saturday post.

And, last weekend we hosted a lovely bridal shower for my best friend’s sweet daughter! I’ll be sharing more about it soon!

A clear glass vase with orange and pink tulips and white hydrangeas sits on a striped tablecloth near a window, adding charm to this April recap scene, with a blurred plate and outdoor greenery in the background.

It’s been a fun month, and this weekend we hope to get a little yard work done before next weekend arrives. We’re going to the Kentucky Oaks on Friday, a Derby Party on Saturday, house guests are coming for the weekend, and another bridal shower at the house on Sunday (not hosting that one, just providing the venue)!

Catching Up on the Blog:

Here are some fun blog posts from the past month, in case you’ve been as busy as I have and missed a few!

A vibrant pink orchid in a white pot anchors the table, embodying easy ideas for spring home decor. Beside it, a blue and white vase with floral patterns complements the small framed landscape painting on an easel, while a decorative mirror with a gold frame elegantly hangs on the wall behind.

I shared our lavender, blue, and green spring decor color scheme in this post.
