Enjoying City Living #2






We took advantage of an afternoon free in the middle of the week to check out the EYE exhibit downtown. Hubby has had this on his list for awhile given it's a GIANT EYEBALL and it seemed like the perfect opp.

Pretty interesting, though slightly random. What do you think?

While we were down there, and it was the most beautiful day, it seemed silly not to hit Grant Park and take in the sites a bit.

Ben loved the Metra station, a portion of which you can view from a bridge overhead. Lots of pointing and waving at the trains. We checked out mom's building. And then walked down to the "bean." Along the way we passed the BIGGEST LIONS EVER at the Art Museum, which was a pretty big hit.

Oveall just a perfect day and so nice to stop and take a minute to enjoy the amazing sites of our city that we mindless pass through day after day.

And of course to see it through his eyes, where everything is new and amazing. A refreshing perspective.
