Oh yes we did

July 10: Cow appreciation day at Chick-fil-A. Free meal if you dress up like a cow.

We did it.

We're classy like that.

Actually, it was really, really fun. And it kept the kids busy for a couple hours while they threw together their costumes {a minor feat with 8 kids of varying ages}.

Here's our small herd outside the restaurant.

My dad was the cowboy and all the kids walked into the restaurant holding the rope. It was a hoot and we got a lot of attention! The manager even took a picture of us to send to the corporate offices.
Will we do it again next year?
Absolutely!

We're classy {and cheap} like that.

I love it!!! You guys look great!

I totally would have dressed up and gone, but sadly there are no Chick-fil-a's in our area.

What a fun night that was. And I didn't mind at all using up all of my black card stock, my big glue dots, etc. I wish we would have gotten a picture of dad wearing his cowboy hat and holding the picture of the big cow! Cute kids!

Ami and Joel did this one year in Provo and they were the only ones in the store who were dressed up. They may have actually been the only ones to show up in cow-costume all that day.
