Godly Food

Tonight we went over to the local mall so that Katy, my youngest daughter, could use her Build-a-Bear gift card that she didn't get to use on her birthday since she got that nasty Pig flu.

Anyways, that was fun to watch her pick out the bear and the clothes and to dress it and then give it a name and a birthday.
Then after that enjoyable process we went right across the way to one of my least favorite stores called Claire's. Now this is a store that is about the size of a shoe box with as about as much merchandise in it as Walmart!
Katy has been wanting her ears pierced and we told her she could get them pierced for her birthday, so that's why we went to the shoe box store so that she could have it done. Well, her excitement on her face soon turned to a look of horror once she was in the chair. I could see the tears welling up in her droopy brown eyes and how she kept fighting back the tears. She was being such a brave little girl. I tried to tell her that it would be okay if she didn't want to get it done, but she said no, she wanted to do it. Thankfully they pierced her ears at the same time, but it didn't matter, the tears flowed down her cheeks and she let out a good cry. Her big sister Meghan held her hand to comfort her and hugged her when it was all done and then she was happy and the smile came back to her face.


















So after that whole enjoyable time we spent at the mall, the kids kept complaining that they were hungry so we decided to leave the mall and venture out to see what restaurant would be the best choice for our family. We were in an area that had a bigger choice of eating facilities than we have around our house, so we wanted to eat somewhere different than just McDonalds and in the words of Matthew, "McDonalds makes me puke!" So we thought that wouldn't be the best place to take that kid.

We decided to eat at Chick-fil-A for dinner. As we are driving into the parking lot, Matthew sees that we are pulling into Chick-fil-A and says "I love this place, they are a Godly restaurant, with Godly food and Godly drinks, and Godly fries and Godly music, and they have Godly toys in their kid's meals, it is just so Godly."
If you know anything about Chick-fil-a, they are a Christian owned business and they play Christian music in their restaurant, and I guess to Matthew that makes them a Godly restaurant.

So I guess you can say that we ate Holy chicken and waffle fries for dinner!
