Toby had Monday off and we needed to get out of the house and do something. I feel like I have been cooped up way too long, what with Kylianne's pneumonia, Zaylia's pink eye and all the snow. It was a nice driving day, so we packed up the kids and drove to Cabela's.
Now I love the outdoors and enjoy camping and fishing every year, but have never really felt the need to visit Cabela's. We have a few different sports stores around us and I thought -- do we really need to drive 130 miles just to see a store??? I guess I was wrong. It was AMAZING. Seriously, I had NO idea or we definitely would have visited earlier.
I assumed we would see a few stuffed deer heads and at most maybe an elk or moose, but there was tons of full sized stuffed deer, elk, moose, bears, goats, lions, etc. and even a Zebra (which was Kylianne's favorite, we had to go back and see it a few times.) The full wall aquarium with huge fish was also a hit with me and the kids. I would just love to catch one that big someday!
We also enjoyed a very yummy meal and I bought a cute new beanie and Toby got a few items for future fishing and camping trips.
There were so many amazing little details, I'm sure we could have stayed much longer if we could have and we were there for over 5 hours. All in all, I was very impressed. We had a lot of fun and the kids were entertained. It was a great way to spend a cold winter day.
