As promised from my post the other day, Crazy Dinner! Our family came up with these ideas, and about 100 more ideas during our StayCation that I blogged about the other week. We had so much fun putting these together and hope they will give your family some ideas for fun family nights! At some point, I will probably put ALL of the ideas in a book, but, without further adieu…
