Space Shuttle Launch

A group picture with Tim's parents. If you look VERY CLOSELY you really can see the space shuttle in the background.
Atlantis STS-129. I can think of only one word to describe this: awesome.
It was quite moving and amazing. You could hear it and see it. It was brighter that I imagined. It went on the first attempt which we were so thankful for. About an hour before lift off the clouds cleared away, definitely a 'once in a lifetime' experience.
The girls watched it quite intensely. Julia pointed at it the whole time and Jocelyn waved good-bye. I know they won't remember it, but they'll enjoy the pictures someday I'm sure.
