Bass Pro Shop- Preparedness Fair/Expo

Today we(Me, the boys,Cadie, her boys, Lauren, her girls and my mom& Chris-came late) went to the Bass Pro Shop. That place is Huge!!! They were having a safety/preparedness fair/expo thingamabobber. The kids all had a great time and brought home a million suveneers(sp?)They even had free catch and release fishing and Coltin caught two fish. He was excited about that. Conner had a HUGE meltdown for literally at least an hour or so. I think it was a combination of no nap, being hungry and it being soooo hott. I was FINALLY able to calm him down with Auntie Cadie's cup of Sonic Ice. Then after the Expo we went to Cheeseburger Cheeseburger. They have supurb Cheeseburgers. I highly recommend going there. (they're pretty inexpensive too) Thanks MOM for driving and lunch. We all appreciate it a whole bunch.

Here are some pictures I took of the eventful day.

Here is Bubba trying oh so hard to catch a fishyAnd here is all the kids fishingThis is the tank that all the fishy were in. It was really cool. Smokey the Bear(it was the best pic I could get)Ryder admiring the HIGE fish that were in the ginormous fish tank. ( I think they were catfish)

Bubba was trying to get as close as he could to these fish, And here is all the boys(plus me) Conner was a little too freaked out by all the huge fish in the even more huge fish tank.

It was a fun, yet VERY exhausting day. It's 430 and I think Conner will be down and asleep for the night by 6.
