September 2015 - Lunar Eclipse

September 26th
We had spent all day at Comic Con, got back to Mana's around 5. Mara and I changed our clothes to get 
ready to go to the General Woman's Broadcast with Mana, Conli & Sawyer. It was a really great meeting 
and I love that Mara can come with me now. Afterwards we went to Taco Amigo for some ice cream! Yumm!


The next day while we were at Mana's for dinner, Melody got into the 
cupboard and found the box of Vanilla Wafers and just dug into them.


That night there was an amazing Lunar Eclipse that was also a Blood Moon, because the moon was the closest 
to the Earth during the eclipse. The eclipse started to cover the entire moon around 8:15. We had made 
it home from Mana's, got the little girls to bed, grabbed my camera and tripod and camped out in the front of 
the house. I took a ton of pictures of the different phases of the eclipse, but these are my favorite.





I used a flash on this picture to get a different look of the moon.


It was so fun to stay up with Xander and Mara to watch the moon. Mara ended 
up going to bed early, and Xander and I stayed up until after 10:30, but went 
to bed before it was completely over. Definitely a fun memory with the kids.

September 28th
Almost every morning after the kids go to school, Melody and I curl up on the 
couch and watch a movie. I just loved how she cuddled up with me this day.


It's finally that time of year!  Egg Nog and making Egg Nog shakes!!


Sept 30th
Some days I feel like Melody watches too much TV, but some times it's the only way I can get anything done 
in the house. I had looked down the stairs to check on her and saw how she was sitting. It made me smile.


These book ends of mine sure love each other so much.
