I've always wondered what my aunt was up to since she left Mcallen and when I googled my aunt's address earlier this year I knew that I had to get in touch with her. I was trying to get a hold of her to let her know about my mom and when I was on my way to see my niece I decided to go see her. See, they both live within 30 minutes of each other and I figured I'd kill two birds with one stone. Even though it took me forever to get a hold of my aunt I knew that I had to keep trying. I finally got a text back from her but it wasn't very sensible. I kept calling her to let her know that her sister (my mom) died but to no avail. She wasn't picking up or answering the texts right away. When we finally arrived I now knew why and I will explain that in a minute. 

Seismique in Houston Texas!

Whenever we go on road trips I try to find fun outings that the kids would like to do. I know that riding in a car all day can be boring especially if you're traveling in a Mini Cooper and so when we made a pit to stop to Houston to visit family we decided to go to this really cool immersive art installation art called Seismique and it didn't disappoint! It literally was 40,000 square feet of sound, lights, music and interactive fun. I made a little video here and it was pretty amazing. I'm so glad we took the time in this busy city to spend with family and explore art in a museum where one can literally lose themselves in all the different exhibits they had. I give it a thumbs up and worth the price!
