Star-gazing

Mark's mom is visiting for the weekend, so she offered to babysit for us so that we could go on a date. We decided to check out the observatory here in town. It was amazing (and free)!!! We could see Saturn and the rings and moons around it.

We felt kinda guilty for going to something that Nathan would LOVE, so we came back home, picked him up, and took him back there with us. We got to see Vega, a double star, the ring nebula, and Saturn again. Nathan loved looking in the telescope and the volunteer that was running it thought he was so smart, because he not only knew all the planets, but different characteristics of them as well.

We'll definitely be going there often this summer!
