New Love.

Ahhh new love...so sweet, so innocent, so fresh and interesting...I found a new love...

Aren't they beautiful? I didn't even realize that I had this fascination with kaleidoscopes until last week, when we went up to a shop in Jerome called Nellie Bly Kaleidoscopes and Art Glass.  I think we spent at least an hour in there playing with all the kaleidoscopes, and dreaming...so I wanted to share some of the photos I took through their large (and too expensive for me to ever own) kaleidoscopes.

And then there is renewed love...a forgotten love that you felt you could never have, and then you realize it can be in your reach...here's Ryan's...

His orchids. It seemed we could never keep them alive, and since we have moved to a milder climate, he has decided to fill the house with them! Which is nice for me, because it fills my need to document every little thing with hipstamatic.

So...yes we are enjoying Cottonwood, and settling in quite nicely.

Just a side note, all my friends with blogs, I have been trying to comment on your blogs, but for some reason every time it kicks me back to the log in page...infuriating! Is this happening to anyone else...I assume the answer is yes if I get no comments...or that you just don't want to comment...hmmm dilemma.
