The Big 28









So yesterday was my birthday. The big ol' 28. Ryan took the day off, and asked me what I wanted to do. We decided to take Austin to Cabela's. Yes I know fun way to spend my birthday. For those of you who have never been there, it is like a really cool museum. They have a lot of cool displays. Conservation mountain is one of them and, is just that a huge fake mountain with a lot of stuffed animals all over it. How it got the name conservation is a mystery to me since it is an exact contradiction. seeing how everything was hunted and stuffed for our enjoyment. But anyway right below it they have an open trout pond that you can feed for a measly 25 cents. The fish are not to enthused about it however, since they are feed all day everyday. They look at you like, "are you kidding me?" then just to be nice take a bite and then spit it out. Austin just loves it.
They also have a aquarium area that is huge. They are also full of HUGE trout and bass, and other unknowns to me. We just happened to be there during feeding time, and it was awesome. They tossed in a ton of the same pellets we were feeding the other fish, and then when we thought the fun was over, in went the live goldfish. They went MAD! It was gruesome, and spectacular at the same time! Anyway it was a fun day. Luckily we ended up at lunch, and to Market Street Grill with the family for dinner. What a Fun Birthday!! I hope next year brings as much joy, love and friendship as this one did!
