What We Will Do for Free Food

Well, our blog has been quiet for a while, because I’ve been a bit low on energy recently … but it’s for a good cause!  We’re excitedly expecting a new addition to our family in February (or, as we say around here, “Sometime near Foofie’s birthday”)!  Nannie (my mom) has been coming over to help, which has been a great blessing and always a highlight of our week.  But today, we used our extra “man power” in a slightly different way.

Nannie and Uncle Joshua helped us to pull off a lunchtime trip to our Chester Chick-fil-A all dressed as cows so we could each get a free meal!  I think we got about $50 worth of free food, and the children had a wonderful time.  Foofie has exclaimed a number of times that, “This was my bestest day ever!!” and at least half a dozen times before and during dinner, Bo-Bo just looked up from her food and said, “Mama!  Big cow!” (the Chick-fil-A cow came over to greet and high-five us while we were waiting in line).

Sometimes a tired mama needs help with laundry or food prep.  But sometimes she needs help making memories and having fun with her “herd”!  All in all, a wonderful day.  And as soon as I post these pictures, I’m ready to crash for the evening!
