The next day I picked her up from school and off we went again. She took 3 practice tests online the night before and scored 90% so she was feeling confident! Needless to say she passed! (3rd time's the charm) She drove us home - on the FREEWAY! She is doing quite well, but I'm not really sure about always being the passenger now! Oh the control I have to give up! aaah! I'm thinking I really should have a brake installed on the passenger side - just for my comfort!
Ha Ha Ha!
The Proud Moment!
"The Permit"
Alec's Pinewood Derby was on Wednesday - He and Tim have been working on his car for a few weeks. (or truck in our case) Alec was disappointed that his truck didn't do better in the competition but he still had a great time racing and looking at all the fun cars. Here's a picture of a few of our favorites!
Our cute "Cub" Scout!
"The Pink Flame"
Looks good enough to eat!
Pretty unique - and it did very well too!
This is my favorite - it didn't do well in the race
but it sure looks awesome!
The man that does our derby has a computerized
program that clocks the cars and posts the times
on a big screen. It also tells who is on deck - It is
a fantastic setup and the kids love it!
Also on Wednesday (just a little later) we went
to our Young Women activity and made chocolate
covered pretzels. We were at Jessica Linde's home
and enjoyed making the goodies and then delivering
them to some ward members. We always have a good
time together even when we do something simple.
Some of my girls!

I don't know what to say there are so many things to comment on. I will go with...What color of car do you drive, I want to be on the other end of town for a few months, HA! Loved the pinewood derbys, way to go Alec! I love the Hershey's car amaizing did the scout really do that one?! I love the pics of the girls' so typical, glad someone likes to work with them they scare me to death! Love ya
Happy Birthday Courtney! I cannpt believe that she is driving! Although I seem to recall a few late night car capers in the last year. So dating and all that other stuff is next? I hate to see them grow up but on the other hand it is pretty cool. And WAY to GO Alec! Love the truck, it's really smokin! Great post MS C, keep em coming!
Jason and I were just talking about Pinewood Derby's and how much he will love helping our boys with that.
I can't believe Courtney is driving! I am sure she is very excited about that. You are very brave to let her drive on the freeway first thing.
This is crazy to me to think that my little Courty Loo is 15 and has a drivers permit! WEIRD!:^) And I love the the derby cars. Love you guys!
Who can't remember the day they got their drivers license? I also remember that when I got mine, Mother & I and my two little brothers were to poor to have a car. We walked everywhere we wanted to go, regardless! But now that I think about it,...I was really thin and had a cute shape....think theres any correlation? And even when I got married, we only had one car and your Dad worked in Provo, so I walked everywhere.....still size 10! Now days people still walk, but not to actually get somewhere!
Have fun driving my sweet Courtney, and count your blessings!
