.:Post #190 In Which The Author Almost Freaks Out:.

I completely panicked the other day when I realized it was the 18th of August. Where did the time go!??!?! I missed Audrey's birthday, I almost missed my sister's and I still can't believe August is almost over. I thought it was still the 7th. I'm seriously the worst Aunt/Sister about birthdays-I feel terrible.
Where does the time go??? How does summer fly by so fast? Thank goodness we're in Texas and it'll feel like summer clear through September but still... I can't believe how fast the summer has gone by. I want my two months back!
Does anyone else feel like it went by faster than it should've?
So as I was realizing how far into August we were and looking at where I could buy a live Unicorn for Audrey (they have Llamas in San Antonio, which made me think, "Man, I want to go there.."), I realized that I haven't even done half of the stuff I wanted to do this summer! Aaaaaaaaaah!!! So, in a last ditch effort to save summer, I am going to go into hyper drive and try to get this stuff done. And if anyone knows where they sell Unicorns, let me know. I'm in the market.

Free Things to Do in The Woodlands for the 4th!

For tomorrow! BEST DAY EVER!!!! I loooooove the 4th of July. So, y'all ready for this????

Starting with Friday night there will be a free patriotic concert at the pavilion. Gates open at 6:30 and they will shoot off the canons for the William Tell Overture.

The Waterway fountains will have patriotic music in sync with the giant water fountains through Sunday. They start the show at 6pm on the weekends.

Nigel Edison will be playing country music at North Shore park at 7pm.

Red, Hot and Blue festival will be at Town Green with lots of free activities and hot dogs!

The YMCA in the back of The Woodlands will be hosting Splash Day from I think 6am-6pm

All Woodlands pools will be free 12-4pm

There is a duck race at Rob Fleming Park off Gosling Road. Watch for free-or purchase a rubber ducky for $5

The Parade will be at 9am and starts at the MethoDome (that huge Methodist Church on Lake Woodlands) and ends there as well. You'll wanna start lining up at 8:30.. somewhere along the route.
