3 Tips for Hosting the Best Play Date Ever
With Memorial weekend upon us, summer is officially here. And I was determined to start it out with a bang by hosting the best play date ever. Nothing says summer to me like getting group of kids together at the park and running them ragged so they fall asleep in their soup. Yes! Sure I […]
New Six Flags Over Georgia Rides for 2016
Six Flags Over Georgia rides have become some of the most enticing attractions in the Atlanta area for families.

Get Ready for a Fútbol Fiesta Atlanta! #ExpresaTuPasion #ATTInfluencer

Dan O’Brien is one of my favorite athletes of all time and this weekend I was on the same field as him! He was a special guest at the Blue Cross Blue Shield Peachtree Junior race on Saturday. My kids ran the 3K, 1/2K, and 50m dash and I ran around like a mama duck […]
