Road Trip!

It's that time of year that a road trip sounds about right. This year things are a bit different that is for sure, but that doesn't mean that you can't still make a road trip and some family time happen it might just have to look a bit different and you'll need to do some extra planning. 

1. Pack extra snacks - you don't want to have to make extra stops so just pack a bag full of snacks to have on hand. I always ask the boys what the favorite of the day is then get them that. I seem to come up with less issues that way. 

2. Pack a cooler - the same as the snacks, go through and ask what they want to drink - it will make your life easier - now if they only pick something that is full of sugar then you decide what's best. 

3. Blankets - I love a good travel blanket, it just makes it more comfortable. Maybe even a pillow if it's even a long enough drive

4. Car charger - make sure everyone has one - my boys fight when the battery starts to die and they all need it at the same time. 

5. Game plan - I like to just leave the house and then we pick a direction, but with how life is right now it might be better to have a game plan of where you want to go. 

6. Sunglasses - the sun is bright make sure you have your favorite pair.

7. Pack for anything - it's a good idea to grab a bag and just throw some random stuff it in. Maybe a swimsuit, towel, sunblock and a jacket. Even a change of clothes. You never know where you will end up. 

8. Remember to have fun. 

9. Pre-trip inspection - before you head out if it's been awhile since your last service then it might be time to have your car checked and make sure it's road trip ready.
