Best laid plans

Well the best laid plans often don't work out and this week has been one of them. I was going to HB this weekend to pick up the kids from mum and dads - where they were having the best of times - going to the movies, building go-carts, building huts and cooking over a camp fire, walking to the shop each morning to get pop his paper, Callum went and helped with the catering of funerals and made himself some money, ANZAC day parade, putt putt golf games, hot chick, chinese, Mcdonalds Whew I couldn't keep up with all they were doing. Phils nana had a stroke on Wednesday so Phil and I shot down to HB that night and saw here then and then took the kids to see her early on Thursday morning then shot home again as Phil had animals arriving back to the farm at 1pm and he needed to be there for them. So we brought the kids back home with us. They are also sick - Bec has had a viral infection in her eyes and they look so sore but are healing well now and James has tonsillitis - took him to the Dr last night to get him better for Monday. Callum is feeling a bit out of sorts now too. Phil is strung out as he trys to get all the last minute things done before Monday - YES MONDAY - MONDAY - MONDAY - we are OFF OFF OFF - YAY we are so looking forward to this trip it is so needed and wanted! Can't wait!
