Annual City Arts Festival

Each year, the City Arts Festival (http://www.cityartsfestival.com) is an opportunity to enjoy and purchase works from area artists, sample some grub, let the kids create some art of their own, and just generally enjoy creativity in many forms. This year's event was no exception.

The Prudential was a major sponsor that was instrumental in ensuring the continuation of this event in a tough economy, and for that I'm grateful.

Can hardly wait for next year.

Home Depot Kids Workshops

Home Depot is starting the New Year right. They moved the Kids Workshops to later in the day (gives all of us the opportunity to sleep in a bit later).

Grab the kids, go have some fun. There are plenty of stores in DFW.
We're heading out now.

Welcome to 2011

Another year has passed.
Holiday weight has been gained.
Goals have been set.
Priorities have been evaluated and re-evaluated.
Resolutions have been made.
What are you going to do with this year?
What do you want it to bring?
What will you do to make yourself and your part of the world better?
What are your big dreams?

I know mine. And no, I'm not sharing with you.

Just remember, as long as TheBetterHalf® and TheKiddo™ are healthy and happy, the rest will be gravy for me.

Dallas' worst playground

Within walking distance of the house, there's a cute urban park. TheKiddo loves to take 'gran aventuras' to play there.

TheBetterHalf and I, however, worry about her playing on the toys. They're solid metal, so they're scorching hot in the Dallas summer sun. Plus, they seemed to have been designed by people who've never actually seen children at play.

Creatives Killing Creativity

Earlier today on LinkedIn (someone remind me why I ever log in there), I saw a post from a Creative Director of some sort decrying the woe...
