got up at 7:30 and made breakfast. it was very warm outside. 35 degrees! the fireplace did not even start up once last night. i had set it on 65 degrees and slept wonderfully!
prepared the dogs for their walk. put collars on them and loaded them in excursion. drove to farragut park and unloaded them at the horse arena. there were 5 deer that watched us as we unloaded dogs. they were not scared of us at all!
nice walk thru the woods where the park has cut down lots of trees for a wide path. nice smell of evergreen.
then we drove back home. unloaded dogs. changed clothes. took fudge, box for KRN's employees, along with us.
we stopped at Macy's. they did not have items i wanted. honey store was closed. hubby will get KRN honey tomorrow (monday). stopped at banks to deposit checks. stopped at dollar store to get coloring books. stopped at safeway to get gift cards & change for the jar.
drove over to spokane to park in the davenport parking ramp on level 4;
took picture of floor we parked on so we could remember!
hubby kept me waiting while he piddled around in the excursion. rearranging things, adjusting his pants, locking doors. i had to pee really bad. we finally got to the hotel and found the bathroom. lots of women standing in the way of the sinks.
we sat down & waited for kids to come. SO many people you could not even move.

saw an employee make a drink out of dirty water and unattended drinks bar. will complain to davenport about that.

when kids came, they brought latte for hubby. then we went upstairs to see gingerbread houses. very disappointing. not very good quality and only 5 entries. we took pictures by the xmas tree. KRN was mad about pictures. said i made them blurry & ruined them (i am old and my hands shake. i take a lot of pictures, so ONE will come out...)
we left & matt had to go shopping while KRN rode with us to red lobstser. i had to pay for parking ticket when hubby came down from the ramp. had to use credit card for $3.26 payment. boo.
drove to red lobster and got to wait 15 minutes for table. matt finally joined us after a while. KRN was in bad mood.
everybody ordered food while i only had water & black coffee. hubby said later that food was the worse he had ever had. lobster was raw. not very busy at the restaurant, but not enough staff on duty. will have to complain about this, too.
we left with matt while KRN paid. had to give matt fudge (for his buddies at work) and the box for employees. then we left. drove quickly to CDA for the TRADITIONS OF CHRISTMAS special at the Kroc Center. we were only 15 minutes late. nice older lady seated us with a flashlight in the dark. show was absolutely fabulous! we also bought $10 in raffle tickets for a 50/50 raffle. we did not win. boo.
after the concert was over at 5PM, we went to wendy's for six burgers for the dogs. then to hardware store where we got dog toys & l.e.d. lights. then went to shop at Super One for dog bones. also got milk & egg nog.
saw a disgusting lady lick her fingers & stick her uncovered hand into the donut case. she licked her fingers & pulled out more donuts. her hand dragged across ALL the donuts. then she walked away. hubby and i were disgusted.
when we saw the lady later, she just walked out of the grocery store. she had no donuts in her hand, so we think she either ate them in the store, stole them in her purse or dropped the bag somewhere in the store. it was disgusting!
we came home, gave burgers to dogs. i made fudge. then hubby watched automotive shows.
i ordered a Fossil purse (Erin small top zip) for myself for Xmas (hubby said it was ok, so he can give it to me for Xmas) that i had seen at Macy's earlier today when we were there. it was $98 at Macy's. however, thru ebates & retailmenot & online Fossil discount, i got the purse; a heart shaped keychain, free shipping & tax which came to LESS than $98. why buy at the stores anymore???
