Cow Appreciation Day...

If you live in the part of the Country that doesn't have a Chick-Fil-A, then you have no earthly idea what I am talking about. Yesterday, was Cow Appreciation Day. Every Chick-Fil-A across the country celebrate their appreciation for cows by dressing like them and receiving free combos & sandwiches in return. Now, I have a long history with Chick-Fil-A. My Dad has been the general manager at one for nearly 10 years now, and I worked there from the age of 14 until I was 20 years old (3 weeks before Bree was born). Now, I work on occasion when they need a photographer. Well, yesterday was one of those days that they needed me.

You wouldn't believe all of the people who actually go through the humiliation just to get free chicken. I'm talking adults in full fledged cow costumes. Grown men too! I know for a fact that I couldn't pay the hubby good money to dress up like a cow. I guess this would be my seventh Cow Appreciation Day, but every year it gets bigger and bigger, and I am astounded more and more by the turn out of people in cow costumes! So, for your enjoyment, here are a few pictures I took. You'll see what I mean by the pure and "utter" (no pun intended) determined (or maybe desperate) attempt to get free Chick-Fil-A.

So fun! I really wanted to get some free chicken yesterday, but I didn't want to dress like a cow :)

I love Chick-Fil-A!

Haha, you could have put some cow spots on a white shirt, and gotten a free Chick-Fil-A entree, like a sandwich or something :)

I love me some Chick-Fil-A too, although, when I worked there...Chicken was the last thing I wanted. It becomes an addiction though, and if I go without it...I start craving it!
