Solar Eclipse

The Polnicky household was very excited about the upcoming solar eclipse. I was able to snag a book that included glasses along with 2 other glasses about 2 months before the eclipse. Thankfully, I got them when I did because many people were scrambling to find some glasses at the very last minute. 


The eclipse started by us around 1:20ish and the total eclipse was around 2:40. Unfortunately, we didn't see that total eclipse here, but it was about 95%. 

We did get to see the many different locations that did experience the total eclipse by watching the NASA channel. The kids would freak out every time the screen would go black by the moon covering the sun. So, when it came close to the total eclipse time here in Huntersville, McKaila got pretty bummed out because she wanted to see what she was seeing on the tv. But even with that, the girls kept coming in and out with me to witness the eclipse and was in awe of all that was happening. 


Logan looked up once, before he fell asleep. Guess it was too much excitement for him.
