Happy Monday! I’ve got a little extra pep in my step today. We just returned from spending four days with old friends at Universal Studios Orlando. I always say, old friends are like old shoes – they fit just right. That is exactly how this weekend felt. Comfortable, easy, full of laughs and lots of love.
We found ourselves enjoying so many moments Around the Family Table. The family table was anywhere from our hotel room in the morning with homemade goodies, to a fun lunch at Margaritaville, to a fabulous dinner at Emeril’s Orlando. The hotel was fantastic, the rides were amazing but what I really enjoyed most, was watching our children interact. From the age of 6 to 20, there was a special friendship, love and admiration for one another. And that is what it’s all about… creating memories that will last a lifetime. This was a trip that our children will be speaking of for years to come.
It all starts Around the Family Table. This week’s Easy Dinner Recipes from our contributors look absolutely amazing! Easy & Delicious – these are recipes that even my kids can handle!
