As April prepares to close down shop for the year, I wanted to share these photos of the beautiful iris that are in full bloom right now.
To say Kate was radiant in her Grace Kelly inspired wedding dress is quite an understatement. She was a sight magnificent to behold and William looked very handsome in his Royal Military attire. 
More importantly than the dress William and Kate wore was the look of pure joy they wore upon their faces. 
They are truly in love.
Thirty years ago I watched William's parents, Charles and Diana marry. I was smitten with the royals as a child and have been smitten ever since. It was to my complete delight that I had the pleasure of watching this royal wedding with Emma-Caroline and Sophie. They oohed and ahhed over the "Princess" and vowed that they too would marry their prince one day. One day they will, whether they be royal or not. 
When I snapped this photo, I never knew a few days later my house and neighborhood would look like a bomb went off. 
The golf ball and softball sized hail and torrential downpours and rain were unbelievable.
In our neighborhood, we had many trees down pulled up by the roots.One home that I know of had a tree fall right through their house, but they were unhurt. There is widespread loss all over. I especially pray for all of the families who have lost family, friends and homes due to this horrendous weather pattern that swept through the Southeast.
It is filled to the brim with unique iron works of furniture, decor, and more! 
If you are ever a visitor to The Avery House in person you will find that we have many pieces from Ironic in our collection. 
The great thing I think about the pieces from Ironic is that they compliment your existing decor, they never compete, and the pieces are timeless. 
After brunch the children hunted eggs which contained half-melted chocolate after it was all said and done. The temperatures were quite warm for an April day, but still nice.
Later it was the grown-ups turn to hunt eggs.
