I’m sure most of you that have read some of my posts have come to the conclusion that I do not have any children of my own…thus, I don’t really write about warm and fuzzy family events.  (I do much better with my favorite happy hour, place to get mani/pedi or weekend event).  Hmmm…it’s not that I don’t want kids of my own…I just jumped on the career, travel, go, go, go when I want to band wagon when I graduated high school, and eight years later and through a BA and MBA I still really like the wagon that I’m on and just not quite ready to make the switch.  However…while I still love my wagon…I’m starting to see how events and things would appeal to families and like to share them!

On March 6^th and 7^th the Square in Frisco will be transformed into an “outdoor gallery” with arts and entertainment for all ages!  While I’ve never attended this particular art event…I’ve been to others around the country and it truly is a good time for everyone.  Mom and/or Dad can enjoy the art (other than the finger paintings, macaroni necklaces and chalk drawn family portraits they so proudly display around the house and in the driveway) and the kids can snack on corn dogs and french fries while participating in short drawing classes and having their faces painted. 

I’m looking forward to visiting this year’s event!!  Below is a brief description from the website regarding the quickly approaching Arts in the Square.  For more details, including vendors, volunteer opportunities and musical guests, please visit http://friscosquare.com/AITS.

“Feast your eyes on incredible art, sit and relax by the Simpson Plaza, listen to local bands and also treat yourself to the food and spirits available in a variety of award-winning restaurants on site. A stroll from the Frisco Library, the Heritage Village and Museum and the SciTech Museum. All of these attributes further set Frisco Square apart. Naturally, there is shopping, too! The Market Place at Frisco Square is home to almost 30 unique boutiques offering something for everyone” – quote from the Art in the Square organizers.

It is still January, so I can still talk about resolutions, so here it is. I have never actually made and kept a New Year’s Resolution. That is until this year. January 1st came around, and I made my list; a short list of items that I swore would be accomplished by the time that the clock strikes midnight to ring in 2011. You see, I tend to be a dreamer more than a doer, but that is all going to change, and 2010 is the year to change it. I have always wanted to keep a blog, I love to write and life is hilarious, so resolution #1, here I come. I am a typical Frisco mom with 3 kids, 2 dogs and a mini-van, and I like to find the humor in pretty much any situation. So, if you need a good laugh, this is place to be; from soccer field scandals to Days of Our Lives on the block, to the crazy Texas weather. You don’t want to miss it!
