On August 21st there was a total solar eclipse of the sun that traveled across the south of the United States. Here in Utah we did not get to witness totality, but we did see about 95% eclipse and you guys... we geeked out hard core. It was AMAZING!
For a girl that was originally like, "What's all the hoopla about?" I consider myself a convert. It was so incredible! Interesting to see how nature reacted. Amazing to see the shadows of crescents all around us. Quiet as the birds fell still. We LOVED it.
We were lucky that Ryan's sister was traveling to totality and bought extra glasses that she shared with us. The boys would head out to the porch and ooooh and ahhhh and then scramble back into the office to draw what they saw. It was cute how completely into they got.
I posted on Instagram that I was feeling so lucky to watch a near total eclipse of the sun with my sons. Pun Intended. :) It's rare that we all get to experience a first all together.
What a phenomenon and what a memory!
