Cabela’s with Donovan & Diana

Saturday, March 18

We were pleased that they had a open day to celebrate Donovan’s 2017 birthday choice of things to do with us.

I wanted an updated photo of them – and Cerwin photobombed it! 🙂

That’s better

We each went our own way – because we all shop differently. It makes shopping more enjoyable for everyone.

Me. I rarely shop in this store because I’d rather take pictures. (I did find some dried soup packs in the house wares area. I like to keep them on hand for quick, rainy day meals.)

My first stop was the huge aquarium.

Then I checked out the safari area.

It is amazing to stand next to the elephant.

I met Donovan and Diana when I was entering the whitetail exhibit – and they were leaving.

Can you find the cougar?

Deb, this one is for you.

Baby fawns are so little – and cute.

Housewares is relaxing and pretty.

We enjoyed a delicious supper at Cracker Barrel – Donovan’s choice.

On the way home I said to them, “Someday, when you are grandparents, you will understand why we work hard at doing creative things that give us time with our grandchildren.” 🙂

I know that it is much cooler to be with their young friends. But it blesses my heart to spend time with them and learn a bit more about their likes and dislikes – and their plans and dreams.

Thanks Donovan and Diana. We love you guys.
