Up to greet g-daughter R and g-son early this morning. G-daughter I has a doctor appointment and will be here later. She is at school with her mom this morning.
After chores and breakfast hubbie played with g-daughter R while I did weekly laundry. I got three loads done between getting things for the kids . Then hubbie went out to school to help daughter get some heavy tables moved into place in her classroom.
An apple, a cookie and chocolate milk , a perfect brunch !!
She was really good this morning and played hard.
That meant an early nap time for her.
I have a feeling this is going to be a regular sight around here for a while !!!!
G-daughter R couldn't believe who came while she was asleep !!! Hubbie isn;t asleep in this pic !!
G-daughter R was very concerned with G-daughter I's "booboos" under those bandaides on both legs from her shots this morning.
Soon daughter and d-in-love joined us for our "eclipse" party.
G-son was very excited and had the best viewing place on top of his mom's SUV.
G-daughter I thought the whole thing was boring !!!
This is some pics we took through our glasses.
Thankful the clouds had breaks in them so we got to see this once in a lifetime event. It has been 90 years since the last total eclipse crossed America and the next one won't come until the year 2078.
This is a pic from one of the totality areas, our area was in the 99.8% totality but that .2% kept it from getting totally dark. This is called the "diamond ring".
However it had nature very confused as all the tree frogs started chirping loudly when the darkness started and the roosters crowed their heads off when it started to lighten up again.
A photographer friend took pictures of each stage at his house just out the road from us and this is what it looked like in our area.
After the eclipse was over d-in-love went back to work and daughter took g-daughter I and went home.
I finished laundry and then played with g-daughter R until her mom got here at 5:45.
Hubbie and I did chores and then I walked around the bottom pastures this evening for a change.
Good news on this eclipse day is the announcement that d-in-love's brother family is going to be adding another member with the confirmation of Whitney's pregnancy. Stella and Jed look like they have mixed emotions about the news !!!
This has been a second very very blessed day in a row for our family. The Baptism yesterday and to be able to witness this historical event today makes me feel super blessed and I am so thankful to God for these blessings.
God Bless and Good Night
