What did you do this summer? I did a lot of disconnecting from the social media and just enjoyed being in the moment. It can sometimes be hard since social media basically is my job right now, but it was so good for my family to see me not behind a screen, but actually in the moment. We went to so many baby showers, birthday parties, and we enjoyed family night every weekend.
What do you do to enjoy time with your family? Movie night? Game Night? A&W is celebrating 100 years of sweet family memories by calling on its fans to create new ones. This summer, A&W Root Beer invites families to take the Pledge with A&W on www.rootbeer.com to go technology-free for 1 hour every Friday night this summer and enjoy family night the right way! The unique, creamy taste of A&W Root Beer is a simple treat that creates fun, care-free experiences for families and can help make any moment special.

The product, information, and gift card have been provided by A&W so that I could try the product and share my thoughts and information about A&W Root Beer. The opinions expressed in this post are my own and do not reflect the opinions of A&W.
All very good suggestions. No family but I read *real* books for fun.
ReplyDeleteThese are great ideas and we love this rootbeer. Just me and my fiance' here in my home but we did spend a lot of the summer doing fun things.

ReplyDeleteThese were pin worthy suggestions! Thank you for sharing! It is such a shame that we have to implement something like this ��

When I was a kid, our town had an A&W Root Beer Stand, where you'd' drive in and order from the car and girls on rollerskates brought your order to the car. So cool. I still love their root beer.
