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!

The Secret To A Successful Super Bowl Party: Great Snacks!

on


Working moms like to party like everybody else, perhaps even more if the portrayal in “Bad Moms” is accurate. (If you’re curious about that, here's a link to post about my recent trip to Miami!) That said the New England Patriots and the Atlanta Falcons are playing in the Super Bowl on Sunday night, which is effectively a school night. For that reason, most working moms will probably be watching the game at home instead of lugging their kids through the cold, disrupting their routine, and making their Monday morning hell.


If you choose to disrupt your schedule in pursuit of Super Bowl fun, no judgment.
 If you’re like me though, excited about the game but reluctant to disrupt your kids’ schedules and aware that grown up parties with kids are not always that much fun for the grown up, stay home and have a little Super Bowl Party of your own. My son thinks fun parties require cool snacks! I think that cocktails make the party. And my daughter thinks the day isn’t complete without desserts. So, as a tribute to all of us, below are links for all three!

NOTE: Just because I live in Pittsburgh, home of the Pittsburgh Steelers doesn't mean that I have to boycott the game. I can cheer for the Falcons! 😉
