I say we are close enough to this trip for me to give you the green light to start to pack up non essentials and summer clothing.
We are all going to pack a small travel spray bottle of the Downy Wrinkle Release right? No problem then!
This list below has been circulating the internet for years and many folks consider it the packing bible for Disney. Personally I think it's an INSANE list and it always makes me laugh.
I'm going to put it up in it's entirety and then make some modifications to it as it pertains to OUR trip and specifically you boys without kids or a gal traveling with you.

A little better right? There are some things on this list that you really don't need to stress over because I'll have them. A first aid kit? I always have one for the kids. It has: Bandaids, Antibacterial ointment, Tylenol, Liquid Bandage,Tums, Benedryl.
I also always have Antibatercial gel and baby wipes and Mike and I always pack packets of of Gatorade or Crystal Lite for your water bottles. I also always have a mini flashlight on me.
Don't worry about these things beacuse there is no point in all of us having the same stuff.
Happy Packing!
