On the Road

The stockings are hung... the presents are wrapped... all that's left to do is pack! We leave for our vacation in 2 days.

Packing and loading up the car should be a bit of a feat (and a fiasco as well, more than likely!). Four dogs, two humans, 4 crates, and suitcases full of winter clothes will somehow be smooshed into this for 11 hours:

And no... I'm not joking! It's actually bigger than it looks... the original plan was for Ian to even fit a SNOWBOARD inside as well! It's an Acura RSX, and it does have a hatchback so it's quite roomy... don't let it's compact looks fool you!

Think it's time for us to upgrade to a SUV? We actually do have plans to hopefully sell his car and get something bigger in the next year.

Happy Holidays to you and yours!

  4. I am very familiar with just how much you can cram into a small compact car! I drove a Honda Civic EX for 5 years before my husband totalled it for me. We "upgraded" to a mid-size SUV and OMG I LOVE it! Not only do I like being higher up and able to see around/over other cars in front of me, but the amount of space and stuff you can pack into it is amazing. Now I have no idea how we managed to get it all in the Honda!

    Have fun on your trip! Happy Holidays!
