The Secret Event!

Well, I know you're all dying to know what the Secret Event was (assuming anyone still reads my blog?)! It was very exciting. We drove down to Uptown, to the Aragon Theatre, and I couldn't tell from the marque even what it was - in fact, I didn't find out until we were inside and I had been (gently) frisked - The Flaming Lips concert! What a fun surprise! I don't go to a lot of concerts and don't know if this is normal, but they had all kinds of balloons that got bounced around, and the lead singer got in a giant bubble and road all over the tops of the crowd and they shot out a bunch of confetti and there were lasers... it was pretty cool.

Otherwise, we spent most of the weekend in our backyard, which is nothing short of a suburban wonderland:

Also there was a lot of smoking going on at that concert, but not cigarettes. I mean A LOT. That was pretty funny.

Was he still singing in the ball? Obviously, I don't go to a lot of concerts either.

Sugarland rolls out into the audience in a giant bubble-ball.

Yeah that looks like the same thing. I think his ball was a little smaller.
