Road Trip!

Hey y'all!

So this year for Christmas, we decided that we are going to be DRIVING home to Oklahoma and Texas and bringing our dog, Winston. I have never been a fan of long road trips...so this should be interesting. It made the most sense though, since we will be gone for 2 weeks and weren't comfortable with our options for Winston. Plus, if you know about his last adventure flying then you know that we will never put him on a plane again!! (If you don't know, the short version is the airline put him on the wrong flight and what should have been a 3.5 hr flight, turned into a 16 hr day of flying) I thought it would be fun to share a little traveling outfit along with some travel "must haves". 

I am all about being comfortable when I travel. Comfy jeans and a long sleeved t-shirt are the obvious choice. No need to get all dressed up to sit in a car all day. I will definitely be wearing a blanket scarf because you can also use it as a blanket to nap in the car! I also think UGGs are the perfect travel shoes because they are super warm and comfy and easy to pull off and on. Nothing worse than stopping to eat or for a potty break and having to take the time to tie your shoes....or is that just me?

Other travel necessities:

1. An iPad (or whatever device you prefer) - I plan on watching Christmas movies the whole time!!! We've also dowloaded some audio books :)

2.  A cozy jacket - This is the ThermoBall one from The North Face. I love this jacket because it is super lightweight and thin, but it keeps you crazy warm. It also folds up into a little ball making it ideal for packing and traveling. 

3. Face masks - My skin always goes a little nuts when I travel. I love these Tony Moly sheet masks. You can put one on and take a little nap in the car then throw it away and feel so refreshed! 

4. Chap Stick - I love the candy cane flavor! It keeps your lips so soft and the minty flavor makes them tingle!

5. Tote bag - I always keep a tote bag with me in the front seat. I keep all of my necessities in it so I'm not constantly reaching in the backseat and looking for things. Plus, Winston will be taking over the back of the car!

We leave Sunday morning. Pray for me friends!
