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!

Working Mom Confession: Getting the most from your money at Chick-Fil-A

on

Not only did Chick-Fil-A invent the fast food chicken sandwich, it tends to rock the fast food game better than anyone else. It delivers a cost effective, wholesome product that you can be proud to serve your family. I choose Chick-Fil-A whenever I can because it is a healthier choice than other brands of fast food. Today we had to take my sister to the airport so that she could return to Atlanta. Because there's a Chick-Fil-A near the airport, I was very excited to go there with my kids for lunch. The indoor playground would help me get some peace and quiet. So, it would be a win/win.

Everything would have been perfect, had I not made a costly mistake...

Unfortunately, learned that I had forgotten my wallet at home. Fortunately, I was able to scrounge up $15.00, which allowed me to purchase a grilled chicken meal and a kids meal with 6 nuggets. Both came with drinks and abundant french fries. So, the three of us had enough to make a meal. That said, they inadvertently gave me 4 nuggets. When I brought it to their attention, they gave me 6 for free. So, my money went even further and the kids had more than enough food to satisfy them. It was a reminder that despite what we may see, we always have enough.
