Busy Day!

Yesterday was a busy day. Max had a haircut, nail grinding, tooth cleaning appointment at 10:30. He wouldn't be ready until 2:30 so Ted and I had to find something to do. After hitting the bank we decided to go to a movie but couldn't find anything to see that would allow us to be done on time to pick up Max. We took a drive through old town Murrietta and had lunch. We went to a book store and found some used audio books, where they cost a lot less than new ones. One of them was a book that is just in stores! Then we went to Kohl's (with a whole lot of other people) where they apparently were having a huge sale. We were able to waste a lot of time there waiting in line to pay for the few things we bought! We then got groceries and picked up Max. See how cute he looks:

We got Max home, fed and walked him (pictures taken) and then took off to meet our friends in Palm Springs. Our friends Stach & Jeri, son Tony and his wife Gina, friends Jim & Kit (not pictured) were in Palm Springs and invited us to come over for the evening to go out to dinner. We are about an hour away. We met up with them and took the pictures below before heading out to dinner at the Casino Spa & Resort. Of course we had to see what the casino had to offer and then had dinner. After dinner we gambled a bit more. Ted and I didn't fare to well but Tony played Texas Holdem for the first time in a casino and came out a winner. Also, Ted and I were walking to the meeting place when we saw Kit. She waved us over, practically jumping out of her seat. She had put 90 cents in and it was still counting out her winnings. She won almost $900! She cashed out in a daze! The next day the guys were going golfing (at 7 a.m. because it get's pretty hot) and the ladies were going to head back to the casino!

A fun time was had by all and..."Ain't Life Grand!"
