Total Eclipse of the Heart

We were in the path of totality for Monday's solar eclipse and had a really cool experience getting to see it! The kids went to school where they got to watch the eclipse too and did some fun activities for it. Brent worked from home, so we watched it together from our driveway.

It's starting!

We got glasses from Girl Scouts for the girls BUT since they were getting to watch at school, Brent and I got to use theirs, yay!

Getting ready!

iPhone photo of totality - it was way neater in person I swear ha


Brent laughed at me trying to put a pair of glasses on my iPhone camera.
I was trying to get a better picture, sue me!

When it got dark, it was really eerie. It wasn't like sunset - it just all of the sudden got dark. More like when a big thunderstorm is coming in.

Bad quality, but my favorite couple!

There was a really cool reflection on the driveway - I'm guessing the light reflecting off the back of my car?


The school posted this picture on Facebook - 
what a cool view of students watching the eclipse!

And a neighbor took these pictures! How cool, right??

This was definitely a really neat experience, and I'm glad we got to witness it.
