The Pennington family from Colorado Springs, Colorado, view a stuffed animal exhibit at Cabela's, a sporting and hunting outfitting store outside Omaha, Neb., Thursday, July 24, 2008.

From left: Johnny Pennington, 17, Alex Pennington, 7, James Pennington, Mary Pennington and Jayla Pennington, 22 months-old.
