Tuesday night = Family night

Another thing I loved while we were back in the states is that we decided to make Tuesday night our families fun night going out to dinner.  It seemed like a lot of restaurants offered specials on Tuesday nights, so we went with it.  The chick-fil-a nearest our house had character greetings the first Tuesday of each month.  It was random, but fun…

  1. Such wonderful memories. We are visiting our missionary family in Vienna. Funny…I’m looking forward to the treats of German food. Coming back after the visit, I will wish I could bring those treats with me…I will not long for American food for a while. Then it will be Jason’s Deli with free ice cream! Our visit is in Feb. Before we leave, we’ll have some Chick-fii-A inyour honor!!
