Friday FUN Day Visit to Chick-Fil-A



We got a jump start on celebrating the holiday weekend by going to Chick-Fil-A this morning for a snack. That was a great treat, but they also set up their karaoke machine and had someone dressed up as a baby cow! We thank Ms. Judy and several other volunteers for helping with the field trip. It was great fun!
