Orange night @ Whataburger

It was wear orange day at Whataburger and get free food. The kids really got into it. In fact, one of the workers (manager?) wanted a picture with them. They had a wall of pictures with everyone in orange. The kids felt honored and we had a wonderful FREE dinner.

Rachel and her friend Isabel, who we brought along with us. These girls had fun with the salt that night.
