Happy New Year!



Danny has made it a tradition to join the rest of the crazy Chicagoans in the Polar Bear Plunge at the North Avenue beach on New Year's Day. This was his second year. I joined him last year - and hated every second of it. I was in bed the rest of the day trying to warm my body. Although I sat this year out, Isaac decided to join Danny in the madness (with the dangling carrot of a $20 reward). I thought he'd change his mind once we got there - but he got in. All the way in. Good job Isaac!

As a side note: Don't you think Danny looks like Daniel Craig in his swim trunks??

I thought about this yesterday and wondered if you guys did it. Well, I was pretty sure YOU didn't do it, but... I am amazed at Isaac. Way to go! How did he feel the rest of the day? And Danny looks EXACTLY like Daniel Craig.

Okay, who is Daniel Craig any way? I think our Danny is the best there is. Rob wanted to know where he got those trunks(?) Isaac is an animal!

Holy cow, will you tell Isaac that I think he is about the awesomest kid ever! There is NO WAY I could tough that out!

Nor could I show myself in public in underpants voluntarily (I did by accident once). So give my props to Danny as well.
