Shoot, I would have sent them an email telling them what time to expect me dropping off the kids.
"Since they absolutely REFUSE to come with us, knowing that they can spend the week with you two insead, we'll be there at such a time. Unfortunately, due to the hectic nature of our schedule, it will have to be the weekend before we actually leave, so you will have the kids for two weeks. While we will miss our children on our vacation, we will rest well knowing that they will be better taken care of physically, spiritually and intellectually, than we sould have done at Disney. Thank you for your kind offer so my husband and I can share this special time together."
