The countdown continues

So last week the washing machine hose decided to fly off the tap and drench everything in site including the electronic panel of the machine. Who needs to buy or repair a machine just before they go to Europe, that is my shopping money!! Thankfully it can be fixed at a cheaper cost than buying a new one. Scott introduced Brendan to the laundrette so he knows what to do for his mission lol. At least the clothes are clean and dry.

Today Scott picked up our passports, visas, itinerary and travel tickets. This means that we are nearly there. Can't believe it has come around so quickly. Scott is already on leave and I have 9 working days to go. And since I am such a caring sharing person I tell anyone who asks (not rubbing it I at all!!). Also the gladiator school is all booked for Scott and Jared. Yes there will be plenty of photos for you all to enjoy!!

On top of all this I have to keep reminding myself that it is also scottie to hotties birthday and to organise dinner for him - just a minor detail. Plus we have The opportunity to be part of a wonderful families special day, being part of one our beautiful YSA girls special days as she continues to prepare to go on her mission and be a part of Jaydens missionary farewell and then he is off to Poland for the next 2 years. Not busy at all but wouldnt have it any other way.

Just need to start shopping for the family treats and have to make sure that we have enough room in our cases for shopping in Beijing.

Anyway will keep you all up to date with our preparations.

Happy dawdling

  2. Hi Scott & Jen,

    Please tell me you have your travel insurance in order and not left it to the last day... as in the famous Fiji adventure?

    We hope you both have a good time. We look forward to reading the amazing adventures of Scottius Maximus and his fair maiden Jene Johansson.

    Break a leg... oops perhaps not!!
