Family Fun for Everyone!
Mother’s Day is coming up and many of us will be looking for some short Mother’s Day Poems so we can write a little something in a Mother’s Day card or maybe make a little hand print craft of our little ones to pas along to our moms on Mother’s Day. Being a mom is a gift and the special moments and the little things in life like a short Mother’s Day poem in a card with hand prints are the things we cherish from the little ones! [Read more…]
With Mother’s Day being just around the corner I know that many of us like to return to the Bible for inspiration knowing what a gift it is to grow a baby inside and have a mother, which is why I though it appropriate to write about Bible Verses for Mother’s Day. [Read more…]

Spring Break Family Vacation Ideas – I had the pleasure of being asked to speak about family vacations at the #DCTravelShow yesterday and one of the things that we went over was the importance of getting your entire family on board when planning your vacation experience. I say “experience” because I think there is a growing trend away from “things” and a movement toward “experience.” People are sharing on social media and email more than every before in the history of man kind and one thing is for sure… no one on their death bed ever thanked their family for a special toy or gadget. Oh don’t get me wrong, all of those things are seriously FUN (and keep kids busy on road trips) but when vacationing, families are seeking an experience. Vacationing is about a family experience. It’s an experience of love, happiness, bliss, fun, laughter and excitement. You need to get your family “on board” so to speak, so now what? Oh and lets not forget – How are you going to PAY for that vacation experience? That’s where the Family Vacation Contract was contrived. [Read more…]

Easter Fun Facts
Easter, like Christmas, is a “blended” holiday: born from desire by Christian missionaries in the early Middle Ages to win over their pagan hosts, existing pagan celebrations were adapted to coincide with Christian holy days. That all sounds rather serious, but you may be interested to know that the way we now celebrate the holiday of Easter has a rather fun and interesting history. Here are a few fun facts about Easter that you can share at your next Easter brunch! It’s all history and it’s all good! I’ll begin with where Easter started and be sure to cover “where the Easter Bunny comes from” as well as our fun & “eggciting” traditional celebrations of today! [Read more…]

The Origin Of The Easter Egg -Filled with chocolate or just dyed, Easter eggs are part of spring. Everyone enjoys the little treat of sweet filled eggs or the fun colors kids (or adults) decorate their eggs with. Whether or not your child believes in the Easter bunny, the eggs are a part of the overall fun of this “new beginning” season. I love to do both versions with the eggs. We all enjoy it, but have you ever wondered where the tradition came from? Well now you don’t have to wonder anymore; here is the origin of the Easter egg as a tradition for one and all to enjoy.
