Flashback Friday - Yak in the Box

This isn't all that long ago but it's in the past so I'm still calling it a flashback.  This summer we went on a little family vacation to Branson.  While we were there we saw the Yakov Dinner Adventure.  We got the family pass which gets 2 adults and 2 children (up to age 16) into the show along with dinner, it's a lot cheaper and I am a bargain gal.  I really thought that the portion sizes would be a little smaller for "kids" but thought that I would just share mine, whatever right?  When we went in they gave the boys "glow" bracelets which we found quite amusing, they were good sports and wore them proudly until...dinner came.  Then they told every child to hold up their glow bracelet so they could get their "Yak in the box", a glow-in-the-dark box with the below inside...

Child's meal features Yak in the Box:
•Hot dog
•Potato Chips
•Fruit Cup
•Refreshing Bottle of Water
•Scrumptious Strawberry Shortcake for dessert

Christian was not impressed.  Cameron could've cared less, he was enjoying being a "kid", he was only 14 at the time after all.  What made it worse was the announcement of the adult dinner, they made everything sound unbelievably delightful and served it on a golden platter.  We also had linen napkins...below is the adult dinner.  Christian was ornery and refused to eat anything from my plate, he just kept saying things like, "No, you go ahead, I'll just eat my fruit cup", Cameron did eat a little of mine but James refused to share any of his.  Had I known I would have gotten him an adult meal (maybe).
 



"Adult" Dinner Menu:
•Smoked Beef Brisket
•Grilled Breast of Chicken
•Buttery Mashed Potatoes
•Sauteed Vegetable Medley
•Sweet Corn Muffin
•Creamy Country Soup
•Refreshing Bottle of Water
•Scrumptious Strawberry Shortcake for dessert


They did get the same scrumptious strawberry shortcake for dessert though and the show was really good.  We went to Branson Landing and got the boys some ice cream, that helped...a little.
