Wow...all I keep thinking of while reading this is the movie Home Alone where the whole family is trying to get in the airport shuttle bus in the morning after everyone overslept and it's chaotic with all the kids and luggage!!! Don't leave any kids behind! I think what I dread the most about vacationing is packing and getting to the airport! It's such a chore to figure out what you need, where everything is, and keeping track of all of it until you get to your hotel! I forgot my ENTIRE makeup bag one time and I almost died...now I get super paranoid when I pack and double check EVERYTHING. I feel for you but it will all be worth it in the end!
