Yay, this has come around so quick. We leave this week. DH's roster did change, but they happily changed it back so his on night shift this week (must be the only time I have asked him to do night shift, LOL).

I am going to have the car packed up Thursday night, and DH and kids will collect me from work, rather than me going home. Some new movies will be downloaded on the IPAD, so at least the kids will have something to watch if they don't sleep as early as normal (or if they fall asleep on way to collect me before dinner)..

Have also made plans to see 2 people I haven't seen in years while DH is sleeping on Saturday (but these people will totally understand if we don't make it down overnight as planned). WE will even go have afternoon tea in the park we got married in, to show it to the children
