Ladies....you should go with your husband...

A couple weeks ago, we took a family trip and we ended up at Cabellas. My husband has been wanting me to go there with him. If your husband likes this kind of place and if you have never been there, I strongly suggest that you load up your kids one day and go with your husband. Your husband will love it and so will you and your kids. That place was amazing. It was like our kids were on one cool field trip. You walk into the place and see this amazing display. A huge mountain display in the center of the store filled with different animals. In the center of the display downstairs they have an aquarium with tons of live fish swimming around. You walk through a tunnel filled with different kinds of fish. There are feeding times where you can watch them feed the fish in the aquariums. All the animals are real....stuffed....and amazing. At the edge of the mountain display...there is also a pond filled with fish. You can pay a quarter and get a handful of fish food that you feed to the fish in the pond. My kids really loved this part. All the animals in the store are labeled with what type of animals they are. Many are also staged (for example, a pack of wolves around a deer lying on the ground, or blood on the buffaloes face froma lion swatting at it). The staff was great as there were so many people taking pictures and askign questions. There is also a restaurant upstairs in the place so if you have hungry kiddos..there you go. I will apologize for all the sideways photos in advance. Smilebox wont let me flip any without cutting off half the picture. So just tilt your head or computer and enjoy. We had such a fun time!!! A fun learning fieldtrip....and all inside and warm.

We love that place! My husband just loves that store! We always have a great time there and since it is so close to the capitol you can extend it into an amazing field trip!! How have you been doing?

Wow... you're right Kristi, that place does look fun! We may have to make a trek out there some day! I had no idea it looked like that inside. It looks like you all had a good time... I like the photos of you with your husband... sweet. Was Isaac afraid of the fish? Funny! Thanks for sharing your family getaway!
