You guys loved my Prime Day posts so I’m back with deals for Cyber Monday… mostly Amazon because we’re besties but also a few other sites that are worth checking out. Before we jump in, let’s… Continue reading Happy (Cyber) Monday!
Each year, my family has somewhat of a “reunion” at Claytor Lake in Virginia. We’ve been going to the lake for as long as I can remember, but we only started the family weekend tradition 4 or 5 years ago.
