Crunch Time

We leave for vacation Saturday and I haven't packed a thing. Well that's not true-- I have towels in a pile and some of the kid's clothes. I have lists--lots of lists-- but I'm having a hard time getting my act together. Mostly because I don't know how to go about packing everything and it's daunting to me all the stuff we will need. Not to mention a lot of things we have to pack last minute. We do have a minivan with a rooftop carrier and we are staying in our state so it's not like there won't be stores. I am still wondering how it will all fit. It's near impossible to pack with Ryan & Kaylie around. I can't focus. Well, tomorrow is crunch time.....I may not sound like it, but I am looking forward to our first family vacation despite this packing hurdle.

It's so hard to pack when you need so much of the stuff up until you leave! Oh, and having twins around does not help:) Have fun on your vacation!

Hey, I've been meaning to email you. Have a great trip! I find those big plastic bins work great for packing all the kids stuff. I expect a full report when you get back!

Hope you all have a wonderful first family vacation. Don't worry. The packing will get done (I actually do better the night before) and as you mentioned, if you forgot anything, there are stores around.
