Nick has been encouraging Isaac to pick a sport to play, but Isaac is just not interested at all. Isaac is really good at bowling on the wii, in fact, he gets turkeys(3 strikes in a row) very frequently. So Isaac decided that he'd like to try bowling as his sport of choice. This was not Nick's idea of a cool sport, but wanted to give Isaac a shot. We had planned to go bowling here in Cheyenne last Thursday, but Nick ended up working late and we weren't able to go. We decided to go yesterday, so we loaded up and drove to the local bowling alley. We got there and the parking lot was overflowing, we walked in and the place was packed with people in halloween costumes. We came home and called the bowling alleys in Laramie, but they were booked up with "Bowling for the Cure". We called Ft. Collins, CO., but they had parties and leagues all day. Nick decided that we could drive the 100 miles to Sidney, Nebraska to go bowling and visit Cabela's. It was the kid's first time bowling, and they had a lot of fun and were very well behaved. None of us broke 100 points, and we were using bumpers(it's a lot easier on the wii!). After our game of bowling, we went to Cabela's, it is huge! The kids enjoyed eating at the cafe, watching the fish, and looking at the animal displays. I asked each family member what their favorite part of the day was, and these are their answers:
Savannah- "I liked the rainbow trout." She loved the aquarium with the different species of fish. We were there looking at fish for 30 minutes, and she still didn't want to leave.
Sophia- "My favorite part was the big huge elephant."
Isaac-"I liked the bowling alley, and getting to pick a treat from the vending machine."
Emily-The best part of the trip for me was buying a cute necklace at Cabela's. I also like spending time with the family and seeing the kids happy.
Nick-The best part for me was coming home."

Classic answer, Nick!
That was quite an effort to go bowling. Must be a cross country sport. It looked like a great family day.
When I saw the title I thought maybe you had gone to trade dogs. I did a double take when I saw the pix of Isaac and the polar bear.
I get a kick out of the way Isaac transposes your posts.
Wow! I don't think we would have been able to go to all that effort. Sounds like mostly everyone had fun ;)
Good job Isaac earning your cupcakes!
Wow, that's along way to go bowling. But, Cabelas, not so much.
We love to go to Cabelas.
Your kids are lucky to have such good parents. Creative cupcakes! What cook book are they from?
Looks like a fun day! Bowling for our family is about the same. Pretty pathetic. We love cabellas too! Amamzing place.
