This winter we are trying really, really hard to achieve my personal goals of 2013, which include 20 ski days for me (30 for my husband). I've got 12 down, so 8 more days to go and I've achieved it. Hurray!
Of course, this is only possible if I can pack all 5 of us in an efficient way, and boy oh boy, are ski clothes (really all winter clothes) hard to pack.
Since I've written off air travel this year (although you can see my tips for plane travel with kids here), we are now down to car travel with kids.
These lovely "before" shots show just how unwieldy our previous method of stuff-it-all-into-a-suitcase-and-pray was.
After each trip I just wash the ski clothes, then repack them into their given cubes. Tada! I'm all packed, right now, as we speak, blog, read sit here for our next trip.
Any amazing other packing tips I should know about?

Such a great idea! I spend half my vacations searching for clothes in our bags. This is a great solution
Those little things are amazing! I most certainly need to look into them!
