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.

A Peek Into the Life of a Working Mom: A Newsletter Appearance (#TBT)



To say that my family and I LOVE the Pittsburgh Children's Museum would be a huge understatement. We're contributors. We're regulars. Our daughter even attended preschool there. Indeed, we may have set a record for consecutive days in attendance. We are there a lot.

Well I was surprised and overjoyed to see that my son and I were featured in the Pittsburgh Children's Museum's September newsletter. Above is our photo and here's a link to the newsletter. Click here
