**Full Disclosure: This post is written in partnership with A Girl’s Guide to Buying Cars. All opinions are my own.
As a child, I attended a zillion boat shows with my parents. I looked forward to seeing all the new, shiny boats! As I got older, my interest shifted from boats to cars. Having two boys made it easy to talk my family into going to auto shows. When the boys were younger, it was easy to make time for those weekends. Now it’s a little more complex since we have to juggle other commitments. But next week I’ll be attending the Houston Auto Show in partnership with the Show and Toyota!
I’m so excited to see all there is to see! I hope you’ll make plans to visit all 800,000 square feet of the Houston Auto Show where you’ll see more than 700 of the latest model year imports and domestic vehicles from the world’s top automakers.
