I drove to DFW on Thursday morning and came back Friday afternoon, braving the dreary rainy weather. That was all made better though with margaritas and Mexican food for Carolyn's birthday Friday night. Never underestimate the power of a good margarita! Speaking of good {stiff} drinks, Saturday night was an absolute BLAST. Blake, Allison, Troy and I did something completely new and right up my alley - ARTOPIA. Artopia is an event thrown by the Houston Press celebrating "culture, fashion, food, art, and music". We wound in and out of curvy warehouse hallways looking at art, sipping our drinks, listening to good music, and catching glimpses of a fashion show, band, or bellydancing/flamenco performance. We sampled good food, got some great freebies, and I snapped as many photos as I could:
Blake's brother Brian painted the main mural for the event!
At Blake's casa - Allison with Boomer
Sunday was a great end to the weekend. We went to the Woodlands to celebrate Troy's gma's birthday with family and as always, we ate good food, had good conversation, and even got a Wii game or two in. I got to snap some more pics (of course!), mostly of the birthday girl with Mr. Jackson:
We are looking forward to this weekend - visiting Cliff & Rachel and Brandon & Tiffani! We have a full weekend in store, going to the Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo, cooking out, maybe a concert or two, and of course Joe Ts! Can't Wait! Here's to a speedy week...
