The 2017 Solar Eclipse

After seeing awesome videos today from people who were in the 100% eclipse areas, I totally want to get myself to one someday! 

One of my sisters was one of those lucky people.  She said it was so awesome and the crickets even started chirping when it got dark.  What a unique experience!

We didn't get ourselves any special eyewear for the partial eclipse that we got here, but our neighbors did and they were kind enough to treat us to the show.  

Brett's teacher had glasses for all the kids so they got to go out and view it at school.

I figured I'd make the most the occasion and I whipped up some partial eclipse sugar cookies.  

The kids thought they were pretty cool, and so did my parents when I took some over to them tonight.

Solar Eclipses.... I'm a fan!
