Are you prepared?Do you have an emergency 72 hour kit?
It's my new obsession.
Above is my list of items needed for our hygiene kits.
Below is all 5 of our kits completed!!!!
About a year ago a fabulous Lady in our ward did a Relief Society meeting on emergency preparedness. She challenged us to go home and make a 72 hour kit for everyone in our family.I totally brushed it off and did not do it.
A few months ago one of my best friends was put in as our ward's emergency preparedness specialist. So that got me to thinking that I really should get those kits put together. So I started with going online and making list after list of items suggested for the kits. Jeremy and I also started shopping around at DI's to find nice, sturdy backpacks for everyone in the family. We still need to find two more so I got started on hygiene kits first.
I mostly used stuff from around my house. I did make a trip to the dollar store last night to get a few things that we didn't have. I have really enjoyed getting these put together. It is so nice to know that we are in the process of getting the items we need in case of an emergency.
The hygiene kits are all done and I have started on the 72 hour backpacks. I can't wait to see how it feels once they are complete. It is nice to finally have some food storage and other necessities that our Prophets have counseled us to get. If you have not started yours I would encourage you to do so. Love you all.

You are a smart chick! With all that's gone of with the world (Japan) we really need to get going on this stuff!
yay!!! You're so great! I think one of my greatest fears is not being prepared and having to watch my children suffer because I procrastinated doing what I should have done.
