Eclipse!






And no, I'm not talking about the kind that involves sparkly vampires. Last night was a total lunar eclipse AND the beginning of Winter Solstice. The last time that happened was 1638. It will happen again in 2094. So, this truly is a once in a lifetime event. I fought my eyelids and stayed up late to watch it. I'm so glad I did! Jeremy and I ran outside every half hour to see how the moon had changed. It was until the eclipse had almost reached totality that we realized we could see it from our back door window without even going outside. D'oh!
