Squeels for Scheels

Today we took a trip up to Sparks to check out the new outdoor mall-"The Legends". The main store there, Scheels is the biggest sporting goods store I have ever been in. It is every outdoors mans dream store. Kelsey was off for girls camp so we just had Chase and Sadi with us. They have a Ferris wheel right in the middle-yes I said a Ferris wheel...It is a huge store! Chase and Daddy rode it-Sadi was to small they said. She had fun watching all the fish in their aquariums that are archways to the entrance and exit. My favorite part of the store was on the second floor where they have a huge display of all kinds of taxidermy animals all displayed on a huge Mountain. They have all kinds of animals all the way around it.
And they have them all perfectly posed so it looks like a scene from the wild. Like this photo of a white tail deer about to be attacked by wolves...check out the posture of all of these.
Sadi loved looking at them, Chase was afraid to get to close he thought they were still alive. Look at that huge moose and elk.
Matt's favorite was the bears,
and the virtual shooting range he was trying to teach Chase to shoot at.
We spent most of the time at Scheels looking at everything then checked out the other stores. It was fun until someone started whining they were hungry....Matt! Once one kid says they're hungry then everyone is hungry. So Chase and Sadi had to chime in that they were hungry. So, I could have spent alot more time there shopping but had to cut it short for the non-shoppers! Next time I will leave the whiners at home!
