packing for a party of 5 ????

Ok here is the situation.. Were going by car and i already have the kids car packs made up, and their packs for the park.. Now packing the normal stuff like clothing .. problem being me DH and DS are staying offsite in a resort .. both of the DS's are staying onsite. One in a room with Great grandma, and the other with grandma.. In separate rooms.. Now should I just pack 1 bag for both girls or 1 bag for each of the girls with their clothes and bath stuff in it .. DH says only one bag for both together but I think it would be easier to give each their own bag ... any ideas?

I'd definitely pack the DD's in separate bags. Although you may have requested that the two rooms be adjoining and connecting, they don't guarantee it (ask me about my Dec trip) so it might be a pain if they aren't connecting to be passing over shampoo, etc...

Good luck!

I need to start packing soon!

Another idea which I did with my sons on our last trip would be to pack all of their stuff in 1 bag, but separate each child's items into zip lock bags or those space saver bags. I found some really big zip lock (Hefty One Zip XL size - 2 1/2 gallon size) bags at Walmart & Target that held several outfits in 1 bag.

Have a great trip!
