kahlcara in Etiquette and Advice, on June 27, 2013 at 7:54 AM

Has anyone done this? how did it go over? how would you feel about it as a guest? my mom thinks they don't need to pay for soft drinks (my parents are paying) and I don't think it's a financial issue...

kahlcara in Planning, on July 7, 2013 at 3:43 PM

So it looks like FH and I will get to go to Maine for about a week as our HM, but since we can't bring our cats, that means we need to find petsitters. We don't live near our families, and the friends...
