Why is it that I find it totally impossible to pack 'a few things' for our long weekend away? We are only going away for a few days, we leave Friday and come back Monday....BUT I seem to have packed the whole contents of every wardrobe and drawer in the house!!!!
I remember (fondly) the days, before children, when I could throw a change of undies and a lipstick in my handbag and that was me 'packed' for the weekend, NOW it is a mamoth task just to fit all the kids stuff in the car. Lauren has packed a backpack, that contains her slippers, various books, colouring pencils, a lip gloss (she takes after her mother), her High School Musical Microphone???, her secret diary, stickers, a wool hat and her girly hair clips - I think it will weigh more than she does!!!! Daniel on the other hand has a single item in his backpack....a Doctor Who book - now that is what I call travelling light!!!!!

Hi Tabitha!!
Well, hopefully you had a great time! I am exactly the same ..... we travel to Melbourne a fair bit (not the past 6 months though :( ) and I always take wayyyyy too much. Kara rarely ends up playing with what we take because there is always something new and exciting to do. Would be interested to know how much Lauren used what she packed!
Thanks for your lovely comments ~ much appreciated xx
Thanks for the comment Vanessa, it was really great to see you on my blog (I had started to wonder if anyone was actually reading it ha ha). We had a fab weekend, apart from the trip back yesterday, where the motorways were at a standstill...typical english roads ha ha....Lauren did use most of what she packed (and spread it far and wide at my Mums house - she is not the tidiest child in the world!!!), she woke me up every morning singing into her High School Musical microphone, which was a real treat (at 6am!!). We came home with twice the amount that we took, as my Mum always spoils the kids...I just have to find somewhere to put it all now!
Hope to see you here again soon, am keeping track of how things are going via your blog, you are such a lovely, caring Mum, it is lovely to see.
Warm wishes,
Tabitha X
