On Wednesday, we enjoyed some shopping and fun family time. We started out by hitting the Tanger Outlet Mall so I could do some shopping for the kiddos. They both needed some new spring clothes. Emma has nothing to wear for spring, so I got her a few things to hold her over until her birthday in April. Mac got lots of spring clothes for his birthday, but I figured he would be in 24 months by now, so that's what I told everyone to buy...he is still wearing 18 months. After shopping at Tanger, we stopped by Dixie Stampede to check out the horses (they had one named Mac), and then we went to McFarlin's Restaurant for some lunch...it was great! We started out with fried green tomatoes and fried sweet potatoes. The kids had macaroni and cheese and applesauce, I had a loaded baked potato and salad, and Randall had a spinach salad. It was all great. After lunch, we wandered around the complex for a while. We took in the Imax film "Under the Sea" while we were there. Emma and Mac loved looking at all the facinating fish and other animals. They both sat through the entire movie being very good (they did both fall asleep towards the end of the movie). After the movie, we headed back to the room to rest for a while. After resting, we went back down to the Branson Landing for a little more shopping, the to the Australian Outback for supper. The kids got ice cream with their dinner. Our waitress was nice enough to bring us 2 ice creams even though the kids split a dinner. Mac decided to use his as make-up, then he wanted to eat it like a dog...I promise, I do try to teach my kids manners!! All in all, we had a great day!!
