Twin Packing List

We took the babies on their first overnight adventure (a two hour car ride to my hometown for their baptism). Here's my recommended packing list:

9 different packed bags full of redundant items (check)

7 adults on hand during transit with 5 waiting at final destination (check)

2 adorable baptism outfits and 3 equally adorable back-up outfits on reserve (check)

1 ridiculously cute pair of black patent leather baby shoes for your favorite daughter (check)

4 receiving blankets, 3 of which your husband will misplace within the first hour (check)

1 week's worth of diapers on reserve . . . never used (check)

7 adults, 2 babies, 4 dogs, and 2 sets of golf clubs packed into 4 cars (check)

11 cell phones employed for events coordination (check)

a reality TV show's worth of recording equipment to document the 10 minute ceremony (check)

1 disgruntled uncle (check)

1 incredible friend (my Shannon) to keep you grounded during the bevy of activities (check)

The adventure was a success! Our babies were sprinkled with holy water, blessed by family and friends and in bed by 8p.
