Space Shuttle Discovery


Last night Space Shuttle Discovery was launched.  Our neighbors told us that if you walked up to the top of our street we would be able to see it really well.  The boys were so excited to see it and ran up the street as fast as they could.  Even Taylor kept saying "Mom where's the shuttle?"  All I can say is Wow!  What a show it was.  It launched right after the sunset and as you can see in the pictures, the colors were beautiful!  It really is an awe inspiring thing to watch, and one of the many perks of living where we do.  I watched and was amazed that there were people on board and that they were actually going to space!  What a great time that we live in!

That is totally cool!! We got a little sneek peek about 8:45 here, but it was pretty lame compared to what you saw. Miss you guys.
