And the universe smiles...

Last night Venus, Jupiter and the crescent moon appeared together to make a smiley face in the night sky. It was an awe-inspiring thing to see, and gave me hope that things are going to be OK. I tried to take a few photos, but obviously need to work on my night photgraphy skills! This was the sight from my driveway at about 9pm.

I googled it this morning, and the event won't happen again for 5 years. Europe and Africa will miss it all together and for US readers, by the time you see it, the moon will be inverted and it will appear as a frown. Another example of the universe's sense of humour? LOL...

*****UPDATE*****
And how could I not scrap it?

Supplies - I wish I was the Moon by Amy Riley and sparkles from Ferntree Fairies by Brianna Cox (both available at Snap and Scrap).

Wow, what a great pic and LO! Thanks for sharing :) How weird but I just read about it on your blog and then they just mentioned it on my evening local news here in Central Florida? Well, I'm glad I stopped by and now I am off to download your SnapandScrap Cybercrop Progressive Blog Challenge. Thank You :)
