Last night we went out to see the International Space Station as it went over us. We got all bundled up and went out at 6:55 like the news said and this is what we saw. The news man said it would look like a really bright star and this was the only bright star we saw in the sky so we thought this was it. Jeff pointed at it and told Tanner what it was and that the astronauts landed there. I wasn't sure that this was it because it was suppose to be moving. We came in and a few minutes later I made Jeff go back out to see if that "star" had moved. No, but the International Space Station was moving fast across the sky. I thought it was really cool for Tanner to see it because he loves rocket ships, but I don't think he had a clue what he was looking at. One day he will understand and will think it is cool too!
