Summer Fun Day 56 - Sword Fighting in the Sprinkles or Moon Madness

There's nothing like a warm summer evening for drawing us outside.  We almost never star gaze in the winter - mainly because it's too cold to be comfortable.  But, in the summer, the evenings are inviting, and perfect for star gazing...

...or moon gazing, as we've been finding ourselves doing a lot this particular summer.  The moon was quite spectacular last night, even early in the evening, before the sun had set.

And, since it is summer, we decided to let the younger children stay up late, past their bedtime, to glimpse the moon in its full nighttime glory.  The girls put on a show for us, to pass the time...

...and we were so engrossed we "forgot" to warn them about the automatic sprinklers.

There's nothing like a summer evening.

It's great to be a homeschooler.
