Anybody Need a Ride?

Oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah! Guess who got her license!?!?!? That’s right – ME!!!!!!! I had my road test yesterday and passed with zero points off! We raced home from camp in Washington and made it with an hour to spare. I was incredibly nervous because on August 8 I had taken my first road test and failed… And let’s just say when you have to go back and do it again it’s a whole lot more stressful! But second times a charm and I drove out of the SGI office with my sister in the front seat!!!!

Before my test we had dropped Lanaya and Mom off at the grocery store so Cassia was the “lucky” one who got to ride in the front with me for the first time!!!

I pulled up at the grocery store and Mom and Lanaya literally were standing in front of the store cheering because they saw Cassia in the front… I’ve got to admit we did leave Mom in a bit of suspense because Dad texted her that we were leaving the SGI Office but never said anything else… Hehehe!

Lanaya was especially overjoyed to be sitting in the front… In our family we have a rule that you aren’t allowed to sit in the front until you turn twelve unless there’s nobody else in the car. And because Lanaya had just turned twelve she got to sit in the front driving home from Estevan!!!

I am SO excited to have finally gotten my license! It means I can drive home from Young People’s so Dad doesn’t have to pick me… It also means that Mom and Dad can sit in the back when we travel and watch movies together – something they’ve been talking about ever since I got my learners…?

August was an amazing month and I promise there will be a blog post coming soon about our summer! Maybe you’ll have it in your inbox by the end of December…?
