It's hard to believe that North Dakota just got through a pretty major snow storm that had the highway closed for 2 days! The weather is amazing! I am hoping that the weather in Winnipeg is similar! It's been so nice to wear spring jackets and see the sunshine! What a treat!
We started another heavy day of shopping by another visit to Toys R Us - lot's of fun! Pacey had fun choosing some Easter treats for Kai and Vayda - although our opinions differed a little on what might be fun for them and what she thought would be fun - not sure a 9 year old and a nearly 7 year old would be too much into Team Umi Zoomi and Peter Rabbit. We also had to spend Bampa's ticket (ticket is what Pacey calls money). Bampa gave her some before we left to buy a special treat. It took a lot of deliberation but she finally decided on some pretty cool make pretend food and pots and pans. She was a happy little lady!

After Toys R Us - we did some serious shopping at TJ MAX, Carter's, and Scheels (pretty awesome place for sports fans like us!!!) We ventured on to Costco, where Pacey and mommy had a nap in the parking lot while Daddy and Gramma went inside for a shop. When they came back, we were ready to stop off at Sam's Club - thanks to Marni and Chris!!! Wow! What an amazing place - Pacey and Daddy LOVED the samples and Mommy loved the deals - we had loads of fun in this store. Pacey's favourite sample was some corn if you can imagine!!! We decided after Sam's that we would head back to the hotel for a rest before going out for dinner.
We went out to dinner. We tried some pretty fancy places but they were all booked and the wait was quite a long time, especially for a two year old with wandering feet and a need to explore. Finally, we settled on Olive Garden and it turned out to be pretty convenient - while Gramma and Daddy waited, Mommy and Pacey went to the nearby Hobby Lobby and wandered around.
Pacey does not do very well in restaurants. She starts off amazing, happy, cheerful, funny and all the waitresses and surrounding guests really do love her … at first. But it doesn't take long for boredom to set in. She turns into a clown - easily finding the most ridiculous things to do. The two collages above show her in the before and after stages. In all honesty, I am not sure which I prefer!!!
