Pedal Practice

Yesterday was a BIG day in our home--Alexander turned 15 1/2 and was eligible for his driving temps.  After school, Alexander and I headed to the BMV.  After a slight detour (the agency moved, but the original address was still posted on the website) we FINALLY arrived at our destination.  Alexander successfully passed his written test and after waiting in line and signing several documents it was picture time.  After the picture we waited patiently for Alexander's name to be called.  As luck would have it the machine processing Alexander's temps "broke".  The drivers finishing before and after Alexander received their licenses, but Alexander's remained in limbo.  Soon we watched the machine being "taken apart" and low and behold out came the missing document--Alexander's temps!  With snow falling heavily, we decided it would be best if Mom drove the 45 minutes home!


The BMV provided the student driver stickers and we decided it was wise to post one in Trey's car.

Heading out for the first time as a legal driver.

Taking Dad to the gas station for a fill-up. 
Congratulations Alexander on earning your driving temps!
