'Tis the season

We're in it now, folks. The Giving Gauntlet. The Big Buy. The Season.

'Tis the season for giving gifts and for giving back.

We've put together a gift guide for everyone on your list and beyond. Gifts for you sister? Check. Gifts for your friend training for a marathon? Check. Gifts that do a little good, too? Oh yeah.

'Tis the season for lights and for saving on your energy bill.

You probably know this by now, but wow, it takes a lot of energy to power even a modest light display. But there is an alternative, and it's not losing your holiday cheer. 

'Tis the season for traveling like a pro and for figuring out what the heck your nephew actually wants.

Here's what we're doing this year. We're not getting sick. We're packing everything we need in the event of a travel SNAFU in our carry-ons. And we're showing up with exactly the things our pint-sized family members want. We're nailing it, is what we're doing.

It's a lot and it can be stressful, but you got this and we're here to help. So sit back, have a sip of cocoa, and enjoy.

Happy holidays.
