7 Quick Takes Friday (Vol 15)

My 7 Quick Takes are very brief this week as I leave tomorrow morning to Go South to visit a Very Special Family for our god-daughter’s baptsim. So today’s post is dedicated to travel preparations.

1
New clothes have been purchased; do you know just how cold it is in Tasmania? We will be that much closer to the Pole, brrr.

2
I have packed our bags. Jem’s and mine that is, we are the travellers.

3
Have camera, spare memory card, batteries and battery re-charger. We have been caught out at too many major family events with no camera. I’m prepared this time.

4
A very specially decorated Baptismal Candle is organised (and packed) with the kind help of a dear talented friend.

5
Charts abound on the fridge to aid my mil. We have a menu chart, a job chart, and a weekly itinerary chart. The latter chart rivals an army expedition, full of soccer trainings, gymnastic classes, referee meetings, soccer games, ballet classes, job commitments and a birthday party. My mil’s head must be spinning.

6
The weekly lesson plan is printed out, and Grandma has been briefed. The children know what they have to do so hopefully all is clear here.

7
Plane tickets are printed out and we are ready to embark. We are very excited.
Bonus is we get to visit family enroute and see out new (6mth old) nephew.
