Going on Holiday

Well, we are off on our beach holiday in less than two days.  To say that I have some stress is a small understatement, but I work well under pressure.  Or, at least I actually work under pressure....  Today I am continuing to try to pack for us all and create a pile of stuff to be somehow crammed in the van and organized in some slightly accessible manner.  Yeah, I'm stressed.

Tate, however, has been packed for DAYS.  Here is his suitcase:


Shirts?  Check... 2.
Band-aids? um... oddly, check.
Underwear? Check... 2.
Sunblock?  Check... 1 stick.
Homemade cardboard TV?  Absolutely, CHECK.
Water-bottle? Check.

I'd say unless he feels a need for pants at some point, he's good to go!

Let's just hope with my EXTREMELY organized packing methods, we don't all end up with no pants!  Happy week (or so) to you all!  I'll be back.

I think.

Oh... this is going to be GOOOOOOD!

A cardboard television is a must have at the beach!

Have a fantastic time! I like to add baby powder when we go to the beach to get the wet sand off of little feet and hands. Other than that he's got all of the essentials! My husband always forgets to pack underwear or a toothbrush. I think this is all a ploy to get to a store to buy some man food with the kids...ie chips, soda, candy, BEER, you know, the essentials that he thinks I don't pack enough of. I'm busy bringing sunblock and baby powder.

Enjoy your trip!

Ps. My husband has shown up to a place without a change of pants before (really), so I guess it's not considered an essential...
