If I could give you the stars, I'd gather them inside my heart,
I'd wrap them in love and brighten your day with starlight ..

All Packed and ready to go!

We have all had a really nice day today ~ very busy ~ but really nice!!

Lauren spent the day at summer school ~ her last dance lessons until she starts back in September ~ although I am sure that she will do alot of practising before then!!

Dan and I went into town this morning and had lunch together and wandered around. We were unable to see the Batman film that we had planned to see ~ purely because the times just did not fit ~ we dropped Lauren off at 11am and had to be back for 3.30pm to watch the little show that she was doing and collect her!! But we had a nice time anyway ~ the weather was really warm and sunny today (yes ~ shock horror ~ we have sunshine!!!). We wandered to the park and then sat on the grass together ~ then Dan asked to go to the beach ~ so we went there too and had a walk there too (and Dan had a HUGE ice cream!!!). Before we knew it, we had to head back to collect Lauren.

Laurens little end of summer school show was really sweet ~ they did a rock and roll dance and sang songs from Annie and Oliver and then did a dance to FAME ~ which was really great ~ she really is a little star!!

After we got home the serious job of packing started!! I hate packing ~ it always annoys me ~ having to sort it all out and decide what to take ~ I can never decide what we will need, how much of everything to take and you can guarantee that no matter what I pack ~ we will forget something tee hee!! Usually it is the tooth brushes!!! Anyway ~ all the bags are now packed and there are a few bits that I need to sort in the morning ~ before we head off. I haven't decided what time we will leave ~ my Mum is at work tomorrow ~ so there is no point in rushing ~ as there will be no one there ~ if we get there too early (although I do have a key!!).

I am taking my laptop with me ~ so that I can update you every now and then and check in with you all!!

Take care ~ see you all very soon!! I will be sending out postcards ~ so all you snail mail friends ~ watch those mail boxes!!! XXXXXXXX

Hi Dani ~ yes ~ I think that we are all set ~ just need to pack a few last minute bits in the morning!!
The laptop will be with me ~ I hope that the connection works at my mums ~ if not, I can always borrow hers!!
It was really nice to have some special time with Dan ~ he was lovely!!
I will be seeing my sister at some stage ~ she used to live quite close to my mum, but my mum has moved in the last year and now lives about an hour away ~ so it is still not too far!!
Take care ~ love and hugs XXXXXXXX
