Magic Tree!
Most of the time, when I travel (and without a car) I have few choices- usually just the overpriced crap in the gifts shop. But this trip (to KY) there was a great Toy Store. I was able to pick Marcel up some fun things like this Magic Tree.

It's about 9:30 right now and Zack is 6 hours into "Hands on an eggplant sub"- the contest where he has to keep his hand on a mushy ol' sub for as long as he can- and try to win a Wii for Marcel. Last year they lasted 13 hours before a winner was crowned- we will see what happens this year- he's been mentally preparing for this for a few weeks and has pockets full o' food, books, and who-knows-what to keep him occupied and full.
As far as I know there are 4 people still in the game which is one less than at the start.
More photos of the Homeslice Carnival (which this game was a part of) tomorrow- I'm beat from my trip back from KY! I landed and went straight over to the carnival :)

Piñata Destruction!
Today we went to Arthouse to take part in the destruction of a piece of art- the Stealth Fighter Piñata by Houston artist Bill Davenport. The bashing commemorated the last day of the Arthouse Texas Prize exhibit, in which the piece was a finalist. Folks got tickets upon entry into he gallery- the ticket to whack the piñata with one of the various instruments available- a mop, an oar, a "Happy Valentines Day" sign, a golf club, a rake...Zack was called to take swing a the already crippled piñata, but I didn't get a chance since it was demolished before my ticket was called.
What was in the piñata you ask? Tons of giant red glitter, Hershey's kisses and money- mostly dimes but a few pennies and quarters here and there. But there was a ton, probably $200 worth I would guess. There were kids and adults scrambling for the candy and money- Marcel had some folks gathering for him too (it pays to be a kid, literally) and he ended up with $25! The money had to go toward something artsy or creative to keep with the spirit of the event. We went over to Toys R Us and got a gooey bug making kit.
It was a great day...!

I was sick all weekend so it gave me an opportunity to make the poncho that I've been meaning to make for a while. I got this red yarn last year on clearance and it's just been sitting in a bag on my shelf. I finally pulled it out and started the project. I got some multi-colored yarn for the fringe and tassels- and viola!

Ninja Warrior got a major amount of candy last night. We handed out every last piece of our stash-which was about 11 or 12 (big) bags!
