I don't like thinking of your trip starting off with a full scale melt down for you to deal with. |
I thought of this too. I would probably have them sleep over grandma's the night before. I'm not sure I could pull off the surprise for my older children still, but my five year olds pleas to go too the morning of the trip would rip my heart out. But perhaps since they've never been they won't. Just something to consider.
