art car parade 2008

The girls and I made an art date for Mother's Day weekend, heading out to Houston's annual Art Car Parade last Saturday. If you've never been, you've gotta go (even if it's nearly 100 degrees). So many of the cars were fantastic. The 4 year old liked any car that sprayed us with water or threw out beads. The 7 year old's favorite was the ginormous dragon at the end. And of course they both loved Stumper because they've been to ViSKER's studio and seen the amazing creature up close and personal.

We hit Sonic for ice cream on the way home and landed in the neighborhood pool within minutes of pulling into the driveway. It was a fun day.

We were very sorry to hear about the accident involving Tom Jones the next morning. Our family, like so many others, will always be grateful for his involvement with the art cars and the happy memories created for us.
