A NIght Outside!

Last night on the way home from church, Aiden asked if we could look at the stars when we got home.  It was a beautiful clear night so, although it was a bit chilly, I said I thought that was a great idea. 

We got home and put Griffin in his bed since he was already asleep and isn't quite big enough for stargazing.  Then Shane, the big boys, and I all laid on the front porch under a blanket and looked at the stars.  We saw a couple shooting stars, a few more airplanes, and talked about what stars are and how far away they are and all that.  We talked about constellations but didn't find any because it would be hard to point them out to the boys at this age.  We saw the Milky Way.  

It was a nice way to end the day!  A memory to keep for a long time!!!

Kelli - I've enjoyed reading through some of your posts. It's great that you're able to be home with the kids. They'll remember these times... as will both of you!
