The kids and I took the el downtown to Millenium park.  Even though we didn't wear our suits, I let the kids play in the water sculptures for a bit.  Compared to all the other kids, my kids were glowing white (I make them wear swimshirts to protect that blinding white skin).

I liked this one because at first glance Eli looks like he doesn't have a leg.

Then we took some other pictures, including some of our reflections in the bean. I look tired, but I think it's just the shadows.

My dad is the one wearing the Sox hat that he got for free in 1989.  I don't know why it's yellow, but you can't see that it says "Vienna Beef" on the side.

YOu have an adorable family! Who needs swimsuits anyway?!? It really does look like you son is missing a leg in that picture. Looks like they had a blast!
