• Art institute

    Here you can see the bridge connecting the art institute with the millenium park, the whole place looks really amazing

  • field trip to the zoo

    Second graders at Newberry went on a walking field trip to the zoo today. It was pouring at first, but we waited a bit then just went in the rain. We saw a wolf family, with the mom wolf carrying a baby wolf in her mouth (as Miles tells it, at first we thought she was carrying her lunch…) Also the lions were roaring a lot, and we saw some amazing monkey gymnastics. Here is Miles with friends Bobby and Thomas, and of course, the giraffe and lions.

  • Kennymen

    This was from the day Frankie went to Indiana, during Barry and Frankie's visit a few weeks ago. Here are 4 Kennymen down at the sculptures at Roosevelt Rd & S. Michigan Avenue! Also I can't help but throw in an extra photo of the sculptures, they are really fun to photograph.

  • in costume

    Miles played the role of family patriarch Uncle Eben in a play last month and his costume consisted of pajamas, a walker, and talc in his hair. They had to practice on the hair on a non-actor first, so Liam got the treatment as well.

  • Liam’s new bike

    With liam growing up so fast he had outgrown his last bike, so we bought a bike frame at a yard sale ands spent the last two weeks builing it up from all the old bikes around. Looks pretty good!
