Can You Say Road Trip?

Guess what Erin got today after Illinois' 9 month waiting period?


We'll see if her driving record improves upon those of her older siblings. What worries me is that one of her favorite musical groups, The Killers (fronted by Mormon-raised, Brandon Flowers), have a song on their latest CD titled "Joy Ride". Yikes!

  1. Woot woot! (Too bad Erin never check the comments & won't see that I said that :) Anyway - I guess this is what she meant when she told Molly - "I get my license in two days, see you in four!" Watch out Dad - she might be sneaking her way to Utah! Congrats Erin! I know you will be the best driver in the family :)

  2. Utah's too cold, head down to South Florida! Just don't have the fish in Tennessee along the way.

  3. Welcome to the club Erin. I too am a proud holder of an extremely expired Illinois chauffeur driver's license, circa 1973, Nauvoo. With membership came privileges - I got to drive a bunch of enthusiastic members around Nauvoo in a Bluebird bus while speaking into a microphone as I pointed out historical points of interest. I only wish I could have shot a hippo with a pistol . . . but we couldn't find any hippos that were "of the period." Remember, safety first.

  4. We still have trouble getting used to the fact that "time marches on" whether we are ready or not. Just make sure you learn from your siblings mistakes - I don't want to put another picture of a car on its side next to the one Ben provided for us.

  5. I'm pretty sure I locked my keys in my car the first night I had my license, Doh! I'm sure your parents won't mind some keys locked in the car...just keep it at that, and nothing serious! Good Luck!!
