Wishing all Dads, Husbands, Father-in-laws, Grandpas, Brothers, and Sons a Happy Father’s Day!

As you sacrifice your time, energy, and resources for your family, you not only invest in the lives of those near you, but also you emulate putting others above yourself.

Watching my husband work a long day and then arrive home to squeals of delight, I am amazed at the energy he still has to wrestle, play ball, and help with dinner when he would rather just sit on the couch and chill.

In using time wisely, Dads are investing in the lives of others, and we celebrate you!

Happy Father’s Day!

This activity is precious. In honor of Father’s Day, participating Chick-fil-A locations are hosting a Daddy-Daughter Date Night. With each restaurant privately-owned, check your local Chick-fil-A for participation.

One of our local Chick-fil-A restaurants sent e-mail subscribers an invitation to their Daddy-Daughter Date Night.

Our location has planned a special evening for dads and daughters on June 10, 2013. The cost is $10 person which includes an appetizer, dinner, dessert, and entertainment.

With reservations required, our Chick-fil-A has opened online reservations. The Date Night lasts for 45 minutes with the following 4 seating times:

5:00 p.m.
5:45 p.m.
6:30 p.m.
7:15 p.m.

As a special treats for daddys and daughters, check the Daddy-Daughter Date Night registration page listing participating restaurants. If you don’t find your local restaurant listed, then check their website or make a call for event information, reservations, prices, dates, and times.

The Chick-fil-A that sent me the invitation is not listed on the registration page as participating. This is due to our Chick-fil-A’s choice to provide online registration through a page on their own website. I share this information because more locations are participating than are listed on the official page.

With Father’s Day quickly approaching, events like a Daddy-Daughter Date Night will meet capacity quickly. Happy planning!
