My husband and I treated our son and daughter-in-law to a five day vacation in Las Vegas for our son's 30th birthday. They had a great time and look forward to going back. They brought back token gifts for their friends and co-workers but nothing back for my husband and I!

Sugar staffer LilPeaPod recently left Samson with a friend of hers for the weekend while participating in the Napa Valley Relay For Life.

She sent one of these awesome thank-you cards she found on Etsy, and I'm totally smitten by them!
