Summer is here - time to just be..

Ahhh, summer.
No more early alarms. No more barking "Let’s GO!" like a military drill sergeant while wrestling socks onto tiny feet. No more arriving to work at exactly 7:59 a.m. and dodging your boss’s laser-eyed glare like you're in an Olympic event.

You made it.
You survived a year of homework meltdowns, lost water bottles, snack duty, practices, performances, and parking lot chaos. You earned this. So did the kids (kinda).

So now, it’s time. Time to slow down, stretch out, and finally take that trip you've all been dreaming about. Whether it’s a beach in Bali, a cabin in Colorado, or your backyard with a kiddie pool and frozen drinks—you deserve it.

But First… Packing.
Before you find yourself on a tropical beach realizing someone "forgot" to pack their swimsuit (again), let’s get ahead of the chaos.

Print this Travel Checklist.
Hand it to every family member. Tape it to their forehead if you have to. Avoid the dreaded “I told you to bring it!” moment.

You're welcome.

I’m here to make travel easier, smoother, and full of magic. Less stress, more mojitos. Less "Are we there yet?" and more "I can’t believe we’re here."
