Solar Eclipse with a side of Opa!

We went to the Oakland Greek Festival on Sunday for Greek merriment and had a wonderful viewing location for the eclipse.

 Falling asleep at the lunch table.

 Fun in the playground.

 Hmmm...

 Excited by the shadow of the windmill.

 More finger in nose action.

 Looking up.

 More looking up.

 Ah ha! That's what he's looking at.

 A weird reflection on the ceiling that looks like a person.

 Loukoumades. Yummm!


 Wait? What? I didn't just stick the whole ting in my mouth...

 Noah donning his solar glasses.

 Olivia and Noah looking pretty dorky.

 A family of eclipse viewers!

 How to take a picture of the eclipse.

 About 10 minutes before it was at the highest point. We did not get a complete eclipse here.

Baking soda and vinegar volcanoes in a variety of colors.














No, we don't have any more vinegar in the house after this...

Snowshoeing Again

We went snowshoeing again this weekend and found the last bit of snow on Carson Pass. We had a great time with Noah's buddy and his family.



















The whole crew!
