packing and unpacking




Flip flops: check
Sunscreen: check
This book: check
Beach blanket: check
And this very cute beach tote made from a thrifted pillowcase to toss it all into.

That's me packed. More or less. I swear. You see, I'm trying something new this vacation. I've never really mastered the art of light packing, and traveling with kids has only encouraged my everything-but-the-kitchen-sink tendencies. But after a couple of seriously stressful airport runs juggling stroller, diaper bag, laptop, carry-on amusements and snacks plus two enormous, overweight pieces of luggage I'd rather take my chances this time. Besides, limiting my footwear to flip flops means nothing fancier than breakfast here and barefoot dinners here. And we're off!
