Jared and I have been on quite a few road trips with kids that I’ve learned a thing or two about making things a little easier for everyone. When it comes to packing up six children and myself I have found that it’s easiest to gather as much as you can into one area. With the little kids Ziploc bags are my best friend. I make up several outfits for each child. Then I label each bag with a name. That way if I’m not around to dress my kids, Jared or whoever my kids happen to be with can grab a bag and the outfit is already there. Easy peasy right? Try it next time. It will make your life much easier.
We just returned from a huge trip to Texas and MAN do I wish I had known about your trick for keeping kids' outfits separate! With only four, I can see your genius-ness already! Thanks for the tip!

They store a bunch of stuff inside them and you roll the air out so they collapse down and save a ton of space. I don't know how I traveled without them!
CP, we used to have those bags. I don't know where they went. I used to love them.
