Chris and Morgane Stapleton are (understandably) very private about their children. They just welcomed their fifth, a baby boy, in May, and Morgane has been more open with the little one than ever, sharing sweet photos of the newborn on her social media.

But Chris is doing his wife one better-and likely earning himself some major cool dad points along the way. The “Tennessee Whiskey” singer took two of his older kiddos to the Toy Story 4 premiere in June, and we’d be lying if we said we weren’t a little jealous of their family outing.

Both kids donned colorful printed outfits, while Chris wore an all-black ensemble. His daughter also topped off her fun look with an adorable watermelon purse, and fuzzy sandals that we might need to buy for ourselves ASAP?

As for why Chris snagged an invite to the premiere, he recorded a song called “The Ballad of the Lonesome Cowboy” for the Tim Allen and Tom Hanks-starred film. (Though we all know he has major pull in Hollywood, and likely could have gotten tickets to the movie, regardless.) The tune was composed by Randy Newman, who famously wrote “You’ve Got a Friend in Me,” so you know his latest release will also be hit.

“To me what has made the Toy Story films hold up over time has been the strength of the stories and the songs and the writing and the characters,” he said in a release, according to Rolling Stone. “There’s something for people of all ages to enjoy in the world that is Toy Story.”

We know what our weekend plans are: Toy Story 4 followed by a singalong to the soundtrack!
