peony babies, champagne + small humans

.
Even with my obsessive projects in the house, still managed to make time for some tasty beverages with friends (bloody mary + champagne) and cozy coffee with Husband (decaf! always!)
.
Also, I apologize if you're sick of random flower pictures from my yard. But here's a random flower picture from my yard. Our first peony baby was born! I'm completely in awe watching the ants on these flowers. I don't even get how the whole process works but you see these tiny ants scurrying all over the big blooms and I keep going 'Husband! see?! the ants are going to open them up! see?! its a miracle of nature! I think glitter will fly out of the center next! see?!'
Ants are basically the midwives to our peony children.

I find it odd that I'm referring to the peonies as my children and babies, yet tonight when we met a new neighbor I literally said 'yeah, eventually we need some small humans to fill up this house'. Small humans.
