Dentist and Minnesota's Largest Candy Store

What an odd combination right?  Lets take our kids to the dentist and then we will take them to the Candy store :).  Obviously not ideal by any means but it just happened that we had a dentist apointment for Brecken and Madiana and our Summer days are limited and this one is on the Summer Bucket List.

Next stop... The Minnesota's Largest Candy store that is located in a yellow bard...

The kids loved walking though the store and picking out some candy with their money.  I would say the only down side is that the store is so large every time we move to the next location they want something different than they had before.  For Brecken, it was difficult as we told him he had $5 to spend and ever second he was recalculating what would give him the most candy for his money.  However, it is a good lesson for our kids to know they just can't go in and pick anything as some of the candy/toy items were around $10.
