Unless you forget all their toothbrushes, toothpaste, and hair brushes, as I just did.

I am the packer who makes a list days in advance, goes to buy all the travel sizes, and over-pack "just in case." If my girls and I were to take a vacation with you and your girls, we might need to rent a moving truck!!! :)Lisahttp://www.thegoldenspoons.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3356107853796107267.post-78604471086168660772012-07-02T17:51:49.786-04:002012-07-02T17:51:49.786-04:00oops... sorry for the double post.oops... sorry for the double post.Steph at The Healthy Momnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3356107853796107267.post-24297207515917305642012-07-02T17:50:58.453-04:002012-07-02T17:50:58.453-04:00I am NOT a light packer because I'm the one wh...I am NOT a light packer because I'm the one who also has to pack my kids. My husband, on the other hand, is another story. He packs as little as possible because he DOESN'T have the kids to pack for. I have to say, the unpacking is definitely the worst part. Not only are you dealing with dirty laundry, but the vacation is over. That's a bummer in and of itself.Steph at The Healthy Momnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3356107853796107267.post-15053106787506097142012-07-02T17:49:58.689-04:002012-07-02T17:49:58.689-04:00I am NOT a light packer because I'm the one wh...I am NOT a light packer because I'm the one who also has to pack my kids.

One year it included a fitted sheet-folding competition. I didn't bother competing.<br /><br /><br />We make the 800-mile trek to my parents' house by car once a year. We use snow shovels to get everything in and out. It all gets dumped on our bed, which requires my husband to help if he wants to go to bed that night. Many hands, light work, all that kind of thing.TheMomChefnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3356107853796107267.post-58433653596359882122012-07-02T15:45:43.840-04:002012-07-02T15:45:43.840-04:00Robin, just a note to let you know that your blog ...Robin, just a note to let you know that your blog makes me smile!
