Sponsored: Add a Little Coca-Cola to Family Game Night

Each Sunday, my daughter and I relax with family game night. Sometimes we have music playing in the background or we catch up on a show that we may have missed. It's always a great time to find out what's going on in my teenager's life and what her concerns and fears are as she gets closer to graduating. Family game night acts as time for me to tell her about life lessons I have learned. We also talk about her goals and dreams in life, and about my mother, who passed before my daughter was born and looks exactly like her—which is why I named her after my mom.

That's where Coca-Cola comes in. Adding this to our night is nothing but fun—we drink Coca-Cola and laugh and have good, old-fashioned fun. Last night, our challenge was a stacking game my teenager had never played. This will go down as one of the funniest nights ever, between my daughter knocking down the tower and almost falling over herself, mad at the horrible defeat. It was a fun time had by all.

So as the days get shorter and it gets colder outside, let's remember to enjoy family and loved ones and add a little Coca-Cola to the situation. When you add refreshing Coca-Cola to any situation, things go from good to great. Because when you add a little delicious Coca-Cola, it all adds up to memories.
