Ok, so this wasn't today, but it was great on the day it was said! ;-)
On Zack's first visit out to the Retreat he was frollicking in the garden in the rain munching on a clump of lettuce freshly plucked from the earth as well as some mustard greens which taste very much like dijon mustard when he said, "Now all ya need is a bread plant and a mayonaise plant and you'd be all set!"

New House!
My timeline is getting a little jumbled here with my posts as my camera was having picture transferring issues, but here ya go! I've been out here a month now!
These first 2 are a split panorama of the front of the house
This is the gate to the front porch & yard/garden. I love the bright colors!
Here's a bird's eye view of the front yard/garden or most of it at least.
This is the fort/playhouse/sleeping porch thingy ;-)

Kitties, Kitties, Kitties
I've been feeling ready to have a kitty or two back in my life again lately, and even had one follow me around downtown Jerome. On two separate occasions. Weeks apart. The same cat. We didn't have a cat carrier so that kitty got to stay in Jerome, and I put my request in to the Universe that I'd like my cat to show up at my house so I know for sure that it's definitely for me. Soooo about 4 days later I'm walking around outside taking pictures of the house to post here and there's a kitty! Ta-Da! Am I good or what?? She's all gray and looks to be about a year old. She's very friendly and wants lovin, rolls on the ground so I can give her a good scratchin and I notice a perfectly square patch of her belly hair is shorter than the rest, has a recent scar from having been spayed and she looks to be nursing. Hmmmm... As I continue walking, out of the shrubs pops a little gray kitten and I double take! It's an exact duplicate of Mama and also very sweet and wanting love if a bit shy. Then moments later out pops a third! This time a little stripey baby who wants nothing to do with this unknown human. Climbing trees and pouncing on bugs are much more interesting!
They've been here about 4 days and seem pretty set on stickin around :-)
Meet my new furry friends!
Gray Baby who told Tashi his name is Kaion. as in Kai-on
Me & Gray Baby
Stripey Baby who told Tashi his name is Sayo.
Don't have a pic yet of Mama Cat, who told Tashi her name is Mayana, as she missed the photo shoot which was compliments of Kristi.
They all come running quite splendidly when I holler "Kitties!"
I picked Tashi up from hang out time at the mall this past Thursday and when she heard the kitties hadn't told me their names yet she set straight to work connecting with them and getting to tell her their names. ;-) Thank you Tashi!!
Now we just have to get them to learn them! ;-)

Spring is Popping Up at the Peace House!
Everywhere I go I'm seeing more signs of Spring! The trees are getting greener everyday, there's daffodils, poppys, and hyacinth blooming. I've seen buds on the purple iris, the tulips and the lilacs! And our own Apple and Peach trees are abloom!
Have you ever seen pussy willows on an Aspen??

Renaissance Fair
Audree made all of our costumes and I made all of our hats! And I sold the 3 hats I had with me to a vendor at the fair who wants 20 more for a Ren Fair in Colorado in June & July!! Whoo Hoo! And And she would have bought all the hats off our heads too, if we'd been willing to part with them ;-)
L to R Kristi, Zack, Audree, Tashi, Bree, me
People LOVED our costumes! We got so many positive comments, and Tashi and I got quite a few, "awww, you look like easter eggs!", which was fine since we were actually there on Easter!
