family night...

Just about EVERY Tuesday we will go to Chick-fil-a for their "Family Night". Now after some reasearch I have found out that each Chick-fil-a has different promotions on their "Family Night" so don't get mad if ours has better deals! LOL! Here we can get a FREE kids meal for every adult meal purchased, they get to do some cool craft & after dinner get a FREE ice cream!! WOO HOO! The tribe LOVES the ice cream! In fact this past Tuesday Avery ate two!! Yep she was a little piggy! =] I have to say that this saves us a TON of money when you are feeding a family of 7 at least for one day of the week! LOL! This Tuesday night activity has turned into sort of a new "tradition" for us. I am usually working so I will meet up with the tribe during my dinner break. It is the craziest dinner break but the time spent with them is priceless! In & out in all under 45 minutes! Whew! When they started this promotion it was pure CHAOS!! People were EVERYWHERE & it was CRAZY! Now that they have been doing it for a several months things are sort of calmer. They even have appearances by their infamous cows!! The tribe would get FREAKED out by them in the beginning but now they will ask if they are going to get to see them & will run up to give them hugs!! In fact Brendan even said he wants to be a "SUPER COW" for Halloween. {This past Tuesday they made capes which the cow donned} Like that will ever happen but just hearing him say that was SO darn cute!  Nothing like seeing a BIG cow wearing a cape to sway a child in the costume dept.! LOL! After they eat all of their dinner they will run off to the play area sans shoes. {This is the part that I don't really enjoy, dirty socks!} I recently decided that we need to purchase them some BLACK socks just so I do not have to see how dirty the floor of that play area actually is!! YUK! There is not much that I can do about it so I just grin & bear it because I know they LOVE playing with all of the other kids! I just have to give a HUGE shout out to Chick-fil-a for building a store near us & for hosting a...

Hi! Just browsing your blog from another one I read and thought I'd share my little nugget of "knowledge" about Chik-fil-a. If you get kid's meals for the kids, often times, they come with a book or stickers or whatever and usually not a toy (which, let's be honest, is all the kids really usually want! toys>books any day!). Anyways, if you leave the "prizes" you get with the kids meals wrapped and unopened, after your meal you can take them to the counter and trade them for free kid's ice creams. Super awesome treat to bribe with for good restaurant behavior. Just thought I'd pass it on! :D
