This weekend, we went to Cleveland to meet up with some of my online friends – women I met while pregnant with Megan. That’s right, we’ve been “talking” online for 6 years! I’ve met both Jodi & Jessica (and their families) before, in Cleveland about 3 years ago. This time, all three of us stayed at the same hotel and hung out after our visit to the Children’s Museum in Cleveland. Megan didn’t go with us because she also had an invitation to go visit her cousins at Nana & Grandpa’s house, and it was much more appealing to her.
 On a forum I visit, someone shared a link about the solstice and the “big” moon that we’d be able to see tonight. At 9:30, I checked and our moonrise was supposed to be at 9:53 pm. At 10:30, I remembered that I’d wanted to see it and ran to the back door to check out the moon. It still looked kind of neat, but there was a weird blur underneath it. I wanted to try to take a picture of it, so Scott set up the tripod for me on the back porch and this was what I got. I took several and this was my favorite. It was the last I took, right around 11. And now I’m blogging about it instead of going to bed like I should have. I’m going to be tired at work. Again. Tomorrow. Good night!   Some online friends of mine pointed out this great tool you can use to make your own family bumper sticker image. Well, Megan spotted mine and wanted to color her own. So, we went to the website, she picked out everyone’s bodies & heads. Then we printed it out and we set her up at the table with the markers & scissors. This is what she came up with…she’s so creative 🙂  I finally finished Molly’s dress like Megan’s last weekend. It ended up just being too much fabric, so I cut the bottom tier down and shortened it. I think it still twirls pretty well 🙂 Molly loved it – Scott said that when she wore it she told everyone “Mommy sewed this dress for me.” It’s a little wide for her – she’s a skinny minnie – I need to learn how to alter these patterns before I start sewing!
