Better Together: Why Inviting Another Family Makes Activities More Fun #FamilyFun Sometimes family activities can feel like another item on the to-do list. However, doing those activities with another family makes them more fun! Whether it’s a trip to an amusement park , a visit to the local pool , or trip to a pumpkin patch , including another family can multiply the fun in amazing ways. One of my favorite moms to collaborate with is my friend, Ayana Ledford who's pictured above with her daughter Sahar. We have done all of the things listed as seemingly random examples above and here is how including her and her daughter (and sometimes her son too) has made the events more fun. On the date above, Ayana almost left the venue because parking was a nightmare. That said, she hung in there and we would up having a great time!

Wordless Wednesday - Working Through The Pain

"I'm just one stomach flu away from my goal weight." -Emily, "The Devil Wears Prada"

I haven't been on a diet, but I was struck with a stomach bug around noon. Wouldn't you know I also had mandatory training today that started at 1:00 PM? Needless to say it was an uncomfortable three hours, which ended with me throwing up in a parking lot attracting the interest of strangers.


Yes, that happened.

Whatever I have is still running it's course. So, I feel terrible. There's one bright spot today, other than my family. I received these flowers at an event today--another centerpiece.  This time they let me keep the vase too!

Being sick sucks, but these flowers make it a little better.
