We prepped for the Solar Eclipse. From what the news people said, it would be bumper to bumper traffic, and everyone would need somewhere to go.
We got our signs ready, and set up on Blanton's ridge.
The day we were prepping, Brook's mom and dad were doing a "night before" concession stand on main street in Troy.
We even had time for a nap!
The day of the Eclipse was a little disappointing, but still fun!
It was kind of cloudy, and rained off and on. Made it hard to see all of the eclipse...
As much as Jace wanted to experience the whole thing, Connor could have cared less...which was fine since everyone was so worried about looking at the sun and causing eye damage.
The clouds parted JUST IN TIME for us to see the eclipse happen. And it was amazing. Everything got quiet, you could hear coyote's howling in the middle of the day, it was a neat feeling.
After the eclipse happened, we packed up and headed to Grable's where they had been hanging out all day. Funny things happen at Grable's sometimes...Gracie got dipped in the pool, and Connor went swimming in her panties...
Nothing like a mid-day drive to get a nap in!
And--have to throw this birthday photo in! Colton's party wasn't on the Eclipse, it was the weekend before. But, his 10th BIRTHDAY was on the same day as the ECLIPSE!! Talk about once in a lifetime!
