Here are a few of the sights in and around the Houston metropolitan area:
(1) An increasing number of homes have these inflatable figures on the front lawn. (One problem: criminals sometimes vandalize these ballon figures leaving behind a deflated mess and some very disappointed young children.)
(2) This weekend (Saturday, December 20th) I ventured to Sugar Land, TX and took in the First Colony Mall - one of the largest in the Houston area:
The Sugar Land City Hall building all decked out for the Christmas Holiday.
The Santa at the First Colony Mall was prefectly dressed for the part!
The main entrance to the First Colony Mall. It took me only about 20 minutes to drive to the mall from my apartment .... and ten (10) minutes to find a parking space!!! When I left at 12:45 pm, the parking lot was full and more cars were streaming in!

Oh, welcome back to Houston!
I think the inflated balloons are a bit silly looking, but that's just me.
You know, I've always been a Memorial City Mall, kinda girl myself.
Have a great Christmas!
Hmmm, the original ones still beat synthetic ones anytime :)
10 minutes is not too bad - here in our major shopping malls, it could be up to an hour or more of turning round and round looking for parking during the holiday season!
