Andrew turns 16 and gets his Drivers License!



Andrew turned 16 on his birthday on June 14, 2010. It is also Flag Day. We celebrated his birthday with the Datwylers on the Saturday before as we met together in Logan for a wedding shower party for the family to meet Carlton and have dinner.
On his actual birthday he was home with just dad and he had some friends over and did the giant slip and slide and ordered pizza and watched a movie with some of his friends.
He received his license shortly after. When he took the Driving part of the test he received the highest score possible of "0"; meaning 0 deductions. Mr. Allred said that in all of his years of teaching Driver's Ed, this is the first 0 he has given. He tried hard to think of some area he could take points off, but couldn't. When we took that score to the County Driver's License place the lady at the counter said that in the 3 years that she has worked there, this was only like the 3rd perfect score she has seen and she does that all day long! So I'm pretty proud of Andrew!
I've never felt nervous with him when I've drove with him. He just seems natural and doesn't get all excited or anything. I believe that the fact the he learned to drive on a back hoe and has been doing so for years played a big factor in his skills! Dan has also let him drive on the highway alot for many of their out of town jobs. Great job Andrew!
