Driving practice

It was really exciting to get to go out to the empty high school parking lot with my cousin Rachel and both of our dads for a "one on one driving prep time". We probably spent about 45 minutes to an hour out there driving around in circles moving slower than snails at first =) We practiced turning on signals, staying on our side of the road, and getting comfortable with picking up a little more speed. I must say though, I just about had a heart attach when Rachel and I passed each other in the parking lot for the first time. . ."Oh no! Oh no! Shes coming this way! Dad, I don't think we can pass without hitting eachother! I know I'm going to hit her! Ahhh! She's going to hit me! Ohhhhhhhh Noooooo. . . . . WHEW! Ok. . that wasn't so bad! Ok, feeling much better now! Whew! *sighs of relief*"

Over all though, I think we had a lot of fun driving with our dads and (thankfully) had no collisions =D

****A very important rule our dads taught us this trip. . . ALWAYS slide the driver's seat back where we found it after driving lest there be much wrath when the master of the car returns =D****
