A Road Trip Playlist

Happy Friday, friends! Today, we're headed out on a road trip to visit the midwest. I don't particularly enjoy road trips all too much (anymore), but there are tons of things I bring/do to make the trip a little more worthwhile. Sharing with y'all a playlist that's for sure going to be playing during our 8-hr long drive. There's a vast difference in many of the songs, but I love all of them and I think they'd make for such a fun drive. I've found that whenever Jeff and I take road trips, we'll have many rounds of different genres that we enjoy listening to depending on how we feel ... so these are totally songs we'd sing! I also wanted to suggest a couple other things that you could do if you're planning for a long road trip in the future. 

Listen to Podcasts:

+ Glorious in the Mundane // This is by Christy Nockels whom I've loved and adored for years! Her podcast centers around "finding the wonder of God at work in the everyday." It's so so good.

Download Kindle Books:

+ As y'all know, I'm currently walking through a couple books that I've purchased and they're all in my kindle. It makes for easy reading on the go although I do enjoy an actual book from time to time.

Engage in conversation:

+ Road trips are honestly some of the moments when Jeff and I have some of our best conversations. There's nothing like sitting in a car for countless hours with an unending highway. It's moments like these that beg for honest conversations and those are always the best.

Play road games:

+ This always involves songs for us. We'd pick random songs and try to guess either the author or the song title. We're not very good at this game though seeing that Jeffrey isn't good at song titles and I never remember any lyrics, so it defeats much of the game itself. I used to always play this with my brother, Chris, and it's so nostalgic for me.

Pack healthy foods/snacks:

+ Something about a trip makes me want to indulge and go crazy because it's a fun time, but opt out of the unhealthy and pack things like fresh fruit and sparkling water! 

xoxo!
