Mary, that's a great post to wake up to this morning!
Today's the day that my planning/packing kicks into high gear. I have a to-do list as long as my arm, but need to add a few things to it. Erin and I are hitting WalMart, Target, BB&B and the mall, and then I'm going to start pulling out all the clothes that we won't need between now and when we sail (more formal stuff). Erin's pile should be 50% done by the end of the day.
One tip I'll pass on (although I'm sure you've all thought of this to some extent)... We wind up with three suitcases on these trips - one that carry one with us and two house-size ones. I always split our stuff between them so we don't have our "own" bags. My ultimate fear is that one of our bags won't make it to our destination (just don't trust the airlines sometimes), and this way, we'll all be missing something, but will still all have something to wear.
OK, off to shower, get some coffee flowing through my veins and get this day started!
Happy Sunday, all! Next time we say that, we'll all be on board!
