One Secret to a Working Mom Success: Make Family Events More Enjoyable With Friends

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!

Christmas Gift for My Blog Readers (#Giveaway)

Family photos are a great way to mark milestones, celebrate achievements and capture the growth and development of your family. We tend to take some professional family photos at least once a year. It's an indulgence that we appreciate. And it is a great excuse to get us all together.
 
I try to share things that I enjoy with my blog readers. For that reason, I was pleased when Robert Armstrong, a talented photographer who captured my daughter's dedication last year, agreed to donate a free photo session to one of my blog readers.
