Family Reunion Quotes To Live By - Part 1

Wondering how to empower the family? Here are some tried, tested and true words to live by.


My granddaughter licked her candy apple until it was oozing with spittle. She then pushed the dripping wet treat to my mouth. About to say "no thank you sweety" I suddenly realized that I would miss out on an ideal opportunity to show deep gratitude and appreciation for her creative expression of affection through giving. I immediately thanked her and took a lick and a bite of the apple. Then I hugged her and kissed her on the cheek. Needless to say, she shared her sticky treat right down to the last bite. Lesson learned!

Did you know that creative expressions of innocent filial affection teach your child the value of kindness, giving and gratitude? We teach our children how to be considerate and thoughtful by example. In turn, they develop a sense of responsibility based on appreciation and gratitude for what you give them including all your hard work. They grow up to be more supportive and are often there when you need them.

Spread the word. Have a family reunion. Teach the younger generation how to creatively express gratitude and appreciation and show others how to graciously accept.  It will go a long way toward building up the household and empowering the family.

Learn the simple steps of planning your reunion.

Best Life Ever Quotes


What the Best Life Ever means to me...
Seeing good for our hard work. That feeling of accomplishment and purpose when you've helped someone reach their goal. Doing what my family loves to do every day of the week. Making my wife smile like she did that very first time we met. Hearing my granddaughter tell me that what I do is so cool! Seeing children and their parents ecstatic with awe."

It's one thing say, "The is the best day ever!" But to say, "This is the best life ever!" is amazing. I invite you to read an excerpt from my Best Life Ever. page and find out when my best life ever began and those I share it with.


Mark and Brenda Askew began their #bestlifeever on October 25, 1980. Since then Fall has had a special nostalgic meaning to them. Warm, golden oak trees dance in the wind and hug the sky. blowing crimson carpets of leaves onto a path of their anniversary day stroll. Baked pumpkin pie, cinnamon swirl in hot streaming mugs of nutmeg and her warm smile. What a smile. After 36 years making the best memories. I believe the best life is yet to come."


Enjoy Mark's new event planning book Best Life Ever Party and Event Planner. Share the joy of celebrating accomplishment, purpose and giving with your loved ones and live the best life ever.

Annual Family Reunion Planning Month

Happy Autumn!

November is Annual Family Reunion Planning Month.

"Generations pass like leaves fall from our family tree. Each season new life blossoms and grows benefiting from the strength and experience of those who went before."

This is the time of year to start your family reunion projects and bind family bonds closer than ever. Ask each household member for suggestions about family reunion activities. Hold a trial run of suggested activities to test the fun factor. Start interviews and collect poems, recipes and amazing stories as told by each member of the family three or more generations deep. Make a video family history documentary. Include photos, videos, heirlooms, music and stories unique to the tribe. Most of all, enjoy Family Reunion Planning Month.

And happy family reunion planning!
