I think your peonies were the first to bloom last year, too, graycrna4u. Looking forward to seeing your pictures!
Wouldn't it be interesting to start a spreadsheet on the varieties we all have here on the peony forum? Too late to do first emerged but have the various bloom times with the member zones? We could chart first bloom to last bloom by area, it'd be interesting to see how long each variety blooms and if it differs from area to area. If I weren't such a technophobe I'd volunteer to start something, I do plan to do something for mine this year but it'll be pretty simple.
