Total Eclipse

On August 21st, there was an eclipse. There was a ton of hype about it because it was a total eclipse; which I heard only happens once every 100 years but then afterwards I saw that there will be another one in not that long of time. So I don't know. Anyway, it was cool! Ryan stayed home in the morning so we could experience it as a family. We were able to see it at 96% totality. When it reached that point, it was really odd how the light looked outside. It was ultra shadowy and not as bright or hot. Inside the house it was really dark, at least relative to a normal 11:46 AM brightness. It was fun to see it, and a good excuse to stand outside and chat with neighbors.

Beforehand, Maya set up the glasses so they were ready to go.




Brianna fell down during her ritual runs up and down the driveway. Don't worry, she survived.




That evening we made s'mores. Yum!



And here is a picture of a goofy and cute smiling baby. We are lovin' life!
