Mummy is often asked how she goes about packing the four of us yorkies up for a long trip such as the TWO-MONTH-LONG summer excursion we are embarking on in just a few weeks.  Well, this is how it’s done!  First, she lays out all of the harnesses that she thinks we will need for the trip, then she matches them up with the co-ordinating hairbows… because REALLY you MUST HAVE a matching hairbow!!!  We used to carry matching leashes with us but that got to be too much of a problem, and since we mainly travel in our stroller, we really just use a basic black leash for our walks… but we take a few extras for the car as back-ups in case we misplace one or two.  Our clothes are placed in little plastic bins and kept in the overbed storage space of our AIRSTREAM.  Mummy carries only ONE doggie shoulder bag in case one of us needs special attention for some reason… you just never know when that shoulder bag will come in handy.  A few pairs of PJs are included for chilly nights and several blankies are needed for spreading on the bed and sofa.  As far as grooming needs, there are just the normal things: rubber bands, combs, scissors, shampoo and conditioner, breath spray and Mummy’s homemade body spray.  We have a little pop-up baby bathtub that goes into the shower for taking baths and that is stored under the big bed and used for our once-a-week baths that Mummy says are REQUIRED when we travel in order to keep everyone smelling their best and the AIRSTREAM smelling fresh too!  Below I have included our schedule.  If we happen to be coming through your city and you are interested in meeting up with us, we would LOVE to see you.  Please CONTACT US BEFORE we leave on our trip with your cell number and email address, otherwise, we have no way of reaching out to you.  You can reach us privately by emailing us at: millielaruerecipes@gmail.com   We look forward to meeting some of you this summer.  KISS KISS

So excited to follow you on your big trip! Do you think that your mom would share the recipe for the body spray. Mom says sometimes I smell like a wet sweater so it would be nice to have a spray for in between the baths.

Your mommy is so organized! We love all your matching outfits. Our mommy is going to get us a stroller for going on walks because of all the people that don’t keep their big dogs locked up! Have a great vacation. We will be watching for your adventures

After several years of having NO STROLLER because Daddy refused to get one, he FINALLY saw the benefits of having one and is soooo happy that we have it now!

Millie ask your Mummy to share the recipe for her homemade body spray for you girls. I think it would be great for my Coco. I look forward to following along on your adventures. You always have such fun in your Yorkie Express Airstream.

So organized! You will have so much fun! And we love “traveling” with you! What does mummy do to protect you from nasty flees or ticks? We need something better then we’ve been doing. Our yard is safe, but not the rest of the world!

I think about the closest you’ll be to me is North Carolina and that still 4 or 5 hours away but maybe will catch you on some other trip! I love packing for trips for the babies! I have little totes that I keep over the bed storage. of course, I’ve never gone on a 2 month long trip, but we seem to pack fairly similarly. Gotta dress those cute little babies! And your girls are so adorable!

Millie, your mummy is very well organized, just like my mommy. My mommy loves learning all the great ideas your mummy has. From now on she will be packing our clothes in clear plastic bins when traveling. She wishes you all were coming to Connecticut so she and my daddy could meet up with you. She wants to introduce you to our new baby sister named Hyacinth Honeysuckle. But she so understands, there is only so much time and planning a route is very time consuming to be able to get to your destinations. Your summer sure sounds like so… Read more »

Dear Millie and Mummy,

I’m thrilled that you’re embarking on another adventure, and sad that I won’t be able to meet up with you this summer. That being said, you’re going to visit some wonderful places up and down the east coast and it’s going to be a lovely trip for all of you! Safe travels, and I look forward to reading about your adventures. Kiss kiss.
