My sisters and their families are both coming here, and it should be a fun (chaotic!) time with seven kids six and under running around. One sister is driving, which is relatively straightforward.…
I admit, I have a hard time with Black Friday/Cyber Monday. Part of me is like, man it’s a lot of work to get the best deals! And the other part is like, send me ALL THE $10 CROCKPOTS. Regardless, there are good deals to be found if you want to make the effort. To…
