Solar Annular


So, I'm sure many of you heard about the Eclipse that happened on Sunday... Well Brennan and I had talked about getting the special glasses and watching it, but both of us had forgotten until yesterday (sunday) I told him earlier in the day that a burger sounded really good. We had some friends BBQing so we decided to maybe go there. But then last minute we decided to hurry and cook some burgers at his house, wrap them in tin foil and then drive up to our spot on Wasatch Dr. to watch it. It was quite the adventure because we had to hurry. By the time we decided what we were gonna do, it had already started. At the last minute we decided on a different spot higher up on the mountains on the east side of Salt Lake. It was SO incredible! We had an amazing view of the valley, and a great view of the eclipse. We laid out a blanket in the tall weeds and sat and ate our burgers and talked and watched it. It was so perfect! I loved it! The best part.... the sun is bright, you can't just look at it with your bare eyes, right?? This is what we used to look at it... :)
Please note that he has 3 pair of sunglasses AND a CD. Everything the news said NOT to use in order to look... HA! but take that news, it worked perfect!!  We took this picture right before we were getting ready to leave. I just LOVE this picture because usually Brennan is SSSOOOO photogenic and I look like an idiot... but FINALLY I look mostly normal and he has a goofy look on his face. 




What a fabulous Sunday with my Honey! He's so great!

Nothing Important...

I haven't been too good at blogging lately. I just feel like I don't have anything too exciting going on. I wake up, go to school, get so frustrated I could die, come home, eat dinner and go to bed. I never really considered myself a yeller. I would get strict with my students before, but never yell. This year I fell like I yell every single day. I have lost any and all patience for my class. I have really been trying to focus on the positive lately because I have just been so miserable. Today was the first day in a long time I didnt come home super stressed out. School is out in 17 days and I can't wait!! In better news, I am switching to 3rd grade next year. I am SO excited to go back to 3rd.  This summer I am just hanging out. I have a few trainings and and a trip to Arizona. I'm excited for the summer to come so I can relax!!!!!!
