okay had an sms from the celebrant - reckons its an awesome idea, so looks like he's up for it

I will call her dad tomorrow - doubt I can get out of the house long enough to get up there since we'll be on packing duties rather than relaxing tomorrow. I used the going off to the office for something else earlier this week

Got no idea how to organise this... might arrange for a bunch of flowers to arrive at the apartment on Monday morning (am thinking this through as I write this)... and play it by ear from there

Jen "finished" the invites to the naming day earlier today, she just read through the list of names... I added a few more family names - might need to pop a few hints to get a few of them to come (they're all interstate) hence the hint. Now how to word that... but a fair portion of my immediate family have already said they are coming... talking cousins/uncles & aunts etc here

Actually I think this is better than going off on a holiday and eloping - this way they are part of it, even if it is a surprise

We'll then probably be off ring hunting next week or so


Elissa, them being so into doing something (usually not what they should be doing) certainly can keep em quiet, and it is soooo great to be able to watch them. Being able to work from home allows me sooo much flexibility in seeing soo much of what they do
