I chose Fun Galaxy in McDonough, GA for my daughter’s 7 th birthday party. The children had a blast. It is a very large, very clean facility. It has a skating rink that looks too be made of rubber or a durable plastic. It also has a large indoor playground divided into two sections, one for toddlers and the other for children up to 11 years old. There is also a skateboarding area, arcade games and a mechanical bull. The price is reasonable and includes admission/skates, admission/skateboard/helmet, or admission/playground. There is a discount for bringing your own gear and a discount for combining activities.  The snack bar pizza is pretty good and the drinks fresh. It is a new facility so all the skates and everything else is new. There are picnic tables set up throughout for seating. The birthday price was ok for 10 children which includes the birthday child. I was happy with the service I received before the birthday party as a visitor and during the party. I wo...

Cheddar's restaurant just opened in McDonough, GA. We took our daughter for birthday. We went straight after school on Monday because I had driven by Cheddars on several occasions and its parking lot is always full. Fortunately, I picked the right time. We were seated right away. The staff  were friendly and the service quick. I had gone online and looked at the menu so we ordered our food as soon as we sat down. It came out quickly and was delicious. The children ordered chicken fingers, fries and Sprite. I ordered the New Orleans Pasta and Peach Tea. My husband ordered the Braised Fall-of-the-Bone Roast and Raspberry Lemonade. My Peach Tea was a little too sweet for me. Our server immediately offered a different drink. I ordered a Mango Tea. It was too sweet as well. For dessert, my daughter ordered the Hot Fudge Cake Sundae. It should’ve been called Chocolate Death. It was a huge piece of cake, moist and delicious. We all shared it. Then my husband had the mini Key Lim...

This post is by Kerry Taylor!! I am a mother, entrepreneur, IT Engineer, poet and foremost a woman. I say this because, at times, we as mothers forget we are individuals too. We hide under motherhood to excuse and justify our movements in life. I have 3 children aged from 17 to 1 years old, they keep my on my toes 24-7. They are the biggest aspect of my life. They keep me thinking of new adventures all the time, and sometimes they stop me taking some of them too. I am known to be rather wild at times. A special quote from my 17-year-old the other day – Whilst picking on his younger brother, I pointed out that they have all come from the same stomach. So, he should not act like he is the superior one. His reply – That is the problem Mother, we came from somewhere far worse than your stomach!! Recently, self-published my first book of poetry called Stones of My Heart: One Woman’s Life Journey. It details all the different stages in my life from childhood, to teenager, to motherhood...

This post is created by Tasha Haight. Life Under the Sea by Tasha Haight             It was our second to last stop on our journey. The loneliness of being a foreigner without friends accompanying me was starting to sink in; I missed my best friend. Being out of the country I call home, the only way I could reconnect with those back in the States was online, and that was a rare opportunity to come by, given our busy schedule. So, I started to write in the "Notes" app of my iPhone everything I would want to tell people when I returned to America.             Little did I know I would write several pages on one adventure alone.

Griffin Skate Inn in Griffin, GA is a great little place to skate and have fun. We went on Friday “Disney” session from 4:30-6:30pm. It’s great skating for younger children without worrying about “bad” music or being knocked down by teenagers. They also have Tuesday Christian music night. It is a great price (includes admission and skate rental) and the staff is friendly and helpful. It is a bit old and I would recommend eating before going, but they do have snacks and drinks. I recommend this skating rink for families on a budget. 2489 N Expressway, Griffin, GA 30223, 770-228-6066 Rating 4/5

Starlite Family Fun Center in Stockbridge, GA is an ok facility. I went there on a holiday because I saw an ad that stated that admission would be free that day. I was scouting for places to hold my daughter’s birthday party. However, I apparently didn’t read the ad because the attendant wouldn’t give me the discount because I didn’t have the ad with me. But I had obviously seen the ad and mentioned it. You would think that would be enough. Customer service oriented businesses would more than likely have accepted this fact. But Starlite didn’t. We went in anyway against my better judgment. It is flashy and pricey. You pay for admission. You pay another fee for skate rentals. You pay another fee to rent a PVC pipe on wheels to help beginners. You pay to get into the indoor playground. You pay for the arcade games. The service did not make me feel welcomed. We ate at the snack bar and the wings we ordered were still frozen. The pizza was not very good. The rink is large with a clean...
