Euro Disney

Euro DisneyI can't believe we're half way through half term already! It's been so nice catching up on all the housework and cupboard sorting that never gets done in term time.

Pete gave the family a lovely surprise at the end of last week, by booking a short three-day trip to Euro Disney for us in March. Seeing that I was flagging a bit and because Callum turns 12 this August - when the "kids go free" deal ends - he decided to call and find out just how much it would be. It turned out all five of us could affordably stay in a self-catering cabin, with all park passes included, so we're off!

I asked Callum to bring a holiday consent form home from school on Friday and he asked why he needed to get one. At that particular moment he was winding Harry up and the screaming and play fighting just before school was driving me mad - so I blurted out that we were planning to take them both to look at boarding schools for a couple of days!

I went upstairs to escape the noise, and by the time I came back down to kiss Callum goodbye, he'd gone. Mackenna said that he'd left for the bus, already protesting as he went that he was not going to boarding school! Poor Callum, I was going to tell him I was joking before he left but I never got the chance. In the evening, we decided to tell the children - predictably, they were ecstatic. Even more so because Callum admitted that he'd gone to school and told everyone he was being sent to boarding school.

The older kids excitedly told the younger ones about our trip to Disney World in Florida when they were young and Harry became more and more excited. His enthusiasm reached fever pitch and consequently, we were woken up in the middle of the night by Harry throwing up.
With that level of anticipation, we can only hope it's all he expects it to be!
