Eclipse

Today was the Solar Eclipse (as if you didn't already know) and I didn't think we'd be able to see it as we weren't able to find glasses anywhere. However my brother saved the day and had a few pairs to spare, so we were able to spend the evening chilling in the front yard and watching the eclipse go on while eating popcorn and such. Apparently, the absolute primo spot to watch it was only about 15 miles away from where we lived, but instead of fighting the 30,000 people that were supposed to be there we decided to stick to the yard. And it paid off.

The fam testing out the glasses

This picture totally reminds me of a cult classic or children of the corn or something. hilarious!

I tried to take a picture but it obviously didn't work out too well. I then tried through the glasses but just got a bright blob.

It was a great night and I'm happy my boys could experience the awesomeness of nature at it's best.

  1. It was more amazing than I expected. I put the glasses in front of my camera lens and it worked! The only problem was that I was to wiggly.
