For me too, kids & pets top the list (3 kids, a cat, a dog and 3 chickens), and honestly, if I have to gather that lot up in an emergency, there probably wouldn’t be time for much else! We periodically burn backup DVDs of all our photos & give them to my mum, though of course that wouldn’t include pre digital photos like from our wedding.

But water, snacks, blankets… To be honest we are not prepared for an emergency evac at all!

I rushed out my teenaged boys and dog, and the phone to call for help. I moved the car and attempted to move the full propane tank. Only after we were safely outside did we think of all the things we probably should have grabbed. But to me the most important things were my children and I had them. sure there were things I wish I could have saved, but nothing as important as what I did save.

It made us realize what really is important, life, a few essentials and photos. Everything is replaceable!
