Winter Solstice

We told the kids that there was going to be an eclipse last night around mid-day. From that point on, about every hour (or more), Joseph would ask, "Is it midnight yet?" He was extremely excited about seeing the eclipse. We got him up around 1:30 to see it. Our skies were perfectly clear & bright. It was awesome to see all of the stars! Joseph did think it was pretty cool. Unfortunately, we failed to realize that Lexie wanted us to get her up as well. Gratefully she was forgiving & settled for watching the news segment about the eclipse. Here is what we were able to capture though. (Not the best of pics, but it was really pretty & awesome to see.)
