I went to Nagoya with my family yesterday to join the party. Once every year the company where my husband has been working throws a big party for employees. Last time we went to Kanazawa City, and this time we went to Nagoya City.
I don't like the party because I have to show my politeness to everyone. I have to pay a lot of attentions to everyone. Every time my husband introduced his colleagues, bosses and their families, I bowed and showed a big smile. I don't think that I'm extrovert to everybody, and I was tired.
After the party, my daughter asked us if we went around Nagoya City. The city is very big like Tokyo, and she was really looking forward to it. I didn't want to go with her because she is so energetic for shopping. It always makes me very tired. My husband already seemed to promise her about it. He refused going with us because he had to drive from Nagoya to our city. I had to hang out with her, and we walked over for three hours. We stopped by many shopping malls and bought some outfits. Even though I was exhaust, we had a great time.

My husband had already made a promise to her about it.
I guess it could "seem" like it but that is not a common expression. Either he did or he didn't so I'll write that he did.
He refused to go with us because he had to drive from Nagoya to our city and had to have his rest.
The connection wasn't clear.
I had to hang out with her, and we walked about for over three hours.
Even though I was exhausted, we had a great time.
Even though it was exhausting, we had a great time. (better).

"I had to" is very negative and makes it seem like you didn't want to be there.

Also, I agree with Bennatan, it is not very clear exactly why he refused to go.
