It is a HUGE sportsman's store and more. It has TONS of stuffed animals (not the lovable kind.... the dead kind) Aquarium, restaurant, and games. We spent a few hours (yes a few hours) looking around and eating lunch. Here are some candid shots of our day.
Cool man Austin trying to look like he doesn't care that his mother is taking his picture AGAIN!
Austin, Erin, Dave, and Oakland in front of the African display. Erin was a little disturbed with how they set up the lion.
Cabela's has a huge, live, aquarium, and we got there just in time for lunch! The fish's lunch that is. They drop in live bait, goldfish for the smaller fish and 6 inch long fish for the larger fish. Austin and Erin thought it was AWESOME! They kept cheering on the bait when it got away, soon they had all the kids around them chanting "Swim, Swim, Swim."
It was hard taking pictures through the glass, but here is a fairly descent shot of a gold fish being gobbled. 
As much as Austin and Erin liked it, Ivy was just as mortified by it! She finally could not take it any longer and went and curled up in Oakland's stroller and cried :( She was not impressed by the whole outing. She kept telling me how sad she was. I asked her why she was sad and she told me she was sad because the dead animals had to stand around all day... They probably get tired! Yes, I am pretty sure those dead animals are tired :) Here she is in the stroller at the aquarium, I finally coaxed her into looking at the camera.
More of the aquarium.
Ivy (before she was "sad").....
Austin......
And Erin.... in front of my favorite animal..... the moose!
We had a great time. If you have never been you might want to venture down. It makes for a fun afternoon.

That is a fun trip. It has been awhile for my kids. Where in Utah is it. Your kids are so cute and have such personalities, I love hearing your stories about them.
Dude, they opened that up right after we moved away. Ben was really sad about that. And what a good idea for Cabela's to have all of the extra stuff, instead of just a store. I wonder if it makes people stay longer, and therefore, spend more money... that would be interesting to find out.
Fun, fun, fun.... No wonder Em and Ivy get along so well. They are the soft-hearted ones out of our girls.
You have such a cute family. I agree with Ivy, the animals probably do get tired standing around all day!
