i would go, i am sure the kids would love to go out for dinner, plus like you said you might win a tray of meat. its always nice to go out with your kids and it makes the walking home fun, you get to talk about all different things. i dont see it being a bad thing at all. good on you for wanting to go with your kids i think its sweet. we are going to the club tomorrow night for the raffles and dinner, dd is so excited she cant wait to go lol
