A Christmas Fair and Puppy Presents

Hello, Everybody! We hope you are having a wonderful weekend. Today (Saturday) we went downtown to the Civic Center for the Junior League Annual Christmas Fair. What fun we had!



There were more booths this year than usual. (At least it seemed like it.) There were the usual things that you would expect such as candle places, jewelry places, food mixes, children's things, clothing, etc. You get the picture, I am sure. Half the fun of going to fairs like this is seeing so many of your friends. By the time we had gone about halfway through the fair, we had so many things that we decided to take them to the car, eat a little lunch, and get a little rest all at the same time. Ellen has the neatest backpack that she packed with cheese, deli turkey, crackers, yogurt, strawberries, water, AND (you guessed it) a glass of Chardonnay. We ate in the car parked on the second lower level of the parking garage. We listened to beautiful music, and it was very relaxing. As you have probably guessed by now, we try to thoroughly enjoy whatever adventure or misadventure we find ourselves in!



After that brief respite, we headed back to the fair. We got our jewelry cleaned, bought several different items for Christmas, and bought Sharon's granddogs a little present. Here is a picture of the little Texas Tech bandanas for them to wear. Aren't they cute? We will try to get a picture of them next week wearing them. Jaxon and Sedona won't know how much fun they are going to have when the Grandmothers come to visit.



Ellen bought them some special treats. By two o'clock in the afternoon, we were exhausted. We headed for home where we promptly took a nap. Sharon's nap was longer than Ellen's. (That is because Sharon is much older. Hee, hee.)

After that, we just enjoyed the rest of the day. Ellen prepared a wonderful dinner, and we watched a little football on television. We hope you enjoyed your Saturday as much as we did. Now we have to get really serious about packing for our trip to Nevada. The countdown clock is driving Sharon bananas. It won't be long now. Until next time. . . . . . . . . .
