A Warm Summer Night... Checking out the Stars

Last family night, we took the boys outside to lay on the trampoline and check out the starry night sky. The darker it got, the more stars we could see. We saw what we thought was a satelite, we also saw about 3 airplanes and Zackary, Jeremy & Tim saw a shooting star. We also found the big dipper. I only really can find the big a little dippers. We talked about stars and planets and the universe. It was really neat to hear what the boys thought of all of that and what they actually knew. And, it is always fun to lay on the trampoline at night, and in your jammies while eating popcorn!


We even took Zackary's telescope to see what we could see.
