MOOve Over, Free Chicken!

Today, the hubster and I dressed ourselves up as cows and went to Chick-fil-a for Cow Appreciation Day where we got free dinner!

My hubby and I at chick-fil-a dressed as cows.

Neither of us have a legitimate cow costume, so we had to improvise!

Tyler wore black dress pants and a white dress shirt.  We taped cow spots cut out of black paper onto his shirt, and he printed the cow face and ears from the Chick-fil-a website.

What an adorable little cow.

I have a black and white animal print dress -  not sure what sort of animal print it is supposed to be, but it definitely worked well for my cow costume.

Then I printed off a cow face coloring page, colored it with my professional grade markers and colored pencils, glued it to cardboard and glued a dowel to the back and viola, my Chick-fil-a Cow Appreciation Day costume!

Unfortunately the cashier that took our picture didn't get my "Eat Mor Chikin" sign in, but hey - we still got a good picture of our fun adventure.

When we arrived to Chick-fil-a, we were the only adults dressed up without young children (except for the Chick-fil-a employees).  Tyler's costume was complete with a cow tail that we taped to his rear end.  Since we wanted to make sure we got the full combo for free and not just a sandwich, Tyler made sure that the cashier saw his tail to show that he was in this for real.  Tyler says and I quote, "If I'm going to look goofy, I might as well have fun!"

And fun and goofy we were.  And full.  Of chicken.  Free chicken.

THE END

    1. Thanks Claudz! That always stinks when particular franchises you like aren't carried abroad. I always missed Cane's when I lived in China!
