Sunday Fun-days

Well. As you can probably assume, this post is about Sunday. Specifically the most recent Sunday - so - yesterday.
I'm just gonna throw this out there.
I freaking love my family.

I went to my Aunt and Uncle's house down in Springville, met my family there. And we just had the best little get together. I thought that I was just going down there for food, which don't get me wrong - is fantastic - but it turned out to be a mini adventure with the best people in the world.
Dinner was served. Along with great conversation. Pretty sure we just listened to my little cousin tell us about his new addition to his life: T-Ball. He was pretty stoked. He also never failed to tell us to try to the lemonade. Which-next time you want to have a toast, dumb the Martinelli's and buy this stuff. Seriously.
Ethan: He's a cutie huh?                   It is delicious.
Dinner finished, and after I sat on the porch and chatted with my parents while others did the dishes [hah - I got outta that one...]. This is where the real adventure begins. So I was unaware that a Solar Eclipse was occurring that evening. And apparently these are a really big deal. We asked Siri, and she told us that the next Solar Eclipse won't be happening for like another 300-400 years. Right? Mind blown. I witnessed a centurion spectacle. And it was phenomenal. Seriously one of the coolest things I have ever seen. I have nothing else to say about it, so please enjoy my pictures. I worked really hard on making them look all cool and like I have photography skills. 






These are the special glasses that the people at the park we went to had. Like it says, they were safe for direct solar viewing. Meaning, I was able to look directly at the sun with these babies on. As you can see in the next picture, they are a fashion statement...








I don't think there are words for this picture. Except for maybe - Yes, the Ure Family has some impressive genetic make up. I mean, have you seen all of us?
Best look family award?

And this my friends, is the picture I am most proud of. Because not only was it really hard to take these with my phone THROUGH the glasses mind you, but they turned out pretty good [for a iPhone through Eclipse Shades]. Too bad they don't really do it justice. It was way cooler in person. I'm sorry if you didn't get to experience this phenomenon. I would say, maybe next time... But I don't want to fill you with false hope. 
Let's be honest, you won't be alive in 300 years.
