But, here goes: I would recommend she travel West to San Antonio and see the Alamo and River Walk and then travel North to Austin and see the State Capitol and some of the old Spanish Missions that are still in the area. There is also a lot of Tourist stuff between the two cities.
From there, I would go North to Waco and see the Texas Rangers Museum. She can then return back to Houston or go A little further North on I35W and see the FortWorth Stockyards (the Ft. Worth Zoo is excellent also).
Then go East on I30 to Dallas and see the down town area where the Kennedy Memorial is and the West End area (the Dallas Aqarium is Excellent also).
Then she can head strait back to Houston on I45 South. She will thru the Woodlands, which is very scenic. While in the Houston area she may want to see the NASA area and go South to see Galveston Moody Gardens. However, the area is still tore up from the Hurricane so she may not want to see the destruction. Moody Gardens is a neat destination.
You can do a search for each of the areas listed and see what each has to offer as additional tourist locations.
The whole trip will be somewhere around 700-800 miles and will give her a good view of the diverse landscape of Texas: Hill Country, Plains, Piney Woods and the Gulf Coast. The only parts she would miss would be the High Plains area out in West Texas. That may be a bit far for 1 week.
If she planned 1 major area per day she could see all of this and only drive 150-200 per day. Book in good hotels and she should be in decent areas and reasonably safe. Good Luck!

Minus two kids, we traveled light with only the youngest in tow. As long as a pool was at the end of our destination she was easy to please unlike the other two who have a multitude of requirements to travel with mom and dad. Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
