we'll be eating more chicken

We did it! In case you have never heard- Chick-fil-a does a grand opening promo where the first 100 people in the store are given 52 coupons for combo meals (that's one meal per week for a year!)

So... on Wednesday morning at 5:45am Jon and I went with Rebekah, and Jason and Lynn Courter to the new Chick-fil-a. It was already packed! Because there were more than 100 people there we were entered into a lottery and Jon and Bekah both won one of the coveted 100 first spots (Jon was #7!!). Since Chick-fil-a didn't officially open until 6am Thursday they had to remain on the premises for the next 24 hours. We had so much fun hanging out, playing Settlers, eating free Chick-fil-a, and chatting with the other participants. This morning Jon and Bekah donned their official t-shirts and hats and walked into the new store and got their coupons. We were home by 6:02am... it was quick :o)
Mom, Bethy and I brought Lydda Grace up to visit for a little while. She seemed to have to fun!
Playing Settlers with Lynn, Jason, Rebekah, Bethany and Jon (Javier joined us later)

Rebekah and Bethany both won rounds of a hula hoop game!

Here's Jon in line in the morning waiting to go in for the Grand Opening and to get his coupons! The guy in front of him in the cow suit has been to 33 of these things.... crazy!

So I guess Emily and Lydda Grace will need gift cards so that they can eat too! It all looks and sounds so fun. Way to go being #7 Jon!.........Mom Wylie

1. I do not believe Clemson got a Chick-Fil-A. Where is this taking place?
2. I have heard of the Chick-Fil-A campout, and would love to do one someday! So fun!
3. We freaking love Settlers! Why did we not know we have this in common?! :D
4. Congrats and have fun!! We go to staff lunches at Chick-Fil-A a lot, which is why I've heard of the campout, and why I'd like some free food for a year.
5. I did get the coupon calendar 2 weeks ago ... BOGO, at that.
