Cow Appreciation Day

My mom arrived this afternoon with my dog-brother Okley. We were all excited and I was doing my normal--asking a million questions about her trip. Then the doorbell rings again and I answer it and guess what--my sister and nephew are here too! They surprised us, I truly had no idea she was coming. We were just sitting around talking and I was starting to think about making dinner and remembered that it is Cow Appreciation Day at Chick-fil-a, if you go in dressed like a cow you eat free. So, I proposed that we come up with some cow costumes and go out to dinner. We made a call to Chick-fil-a to find out the "rules" and went for it. We cut out lots of black and white cow spots, located some brown, black, and white clothing and taped spots all over us including our faces and legs. The rules were that you had to be dressed head to toe like a cow. Here are lots of pictures of our fun!

Cheryl and Hannah did the prep work--thanks girls! You can see Okley's head in the corner of that picture.

Here we are working on our costumes. We made some fine cows let me tell you.

Harrison even joined in the fun!

We all thoroughly enjoyed our free dinner. My kids ate their whole kid's meal, they never do that!

We were even visited by the Chick-fil-a cow! Hannah was unimpressed.

When we saw this sign we knew it was a Kodak moment. Only mom didn't make it in the picture, she got to be on the other side of the camera.
