The oldest and I had the pleasure of spending some quality time at the license branch yesterday so she could obtain her next driver's license. Everything is done by degrees now. I'm not so sure this is about safety, seems to be more about revenue and over reaching laws. But, regardless of why kids need multiple licenses before they reach age 21, she obtained her new one in only two hours.
We arrived home to find hubby here having lunch and offering to take us all to the movies. I ate some lunch, took a pain pill, waited for it to kick in a bit and away we went. The movie was "Rango." We all loved it. Some great one liners, good animation, interesting story line, but most definitely not for the younger kid set. More of a tween and teen cartoon with lots of fun stuff thrown in for the parents. The "Spirit of the West" is alive in well in all of us. After the movie we used a gift certificate for a local restaurant and treated ourselves to a dinner out.
That was our big spring break for the year. Up next is yard work. Hubby informed the kids of their duties and that I will be serving as foreman for the annual clean up. He checked into borrowing a pickup truck so we can go and get mulch at the local place and save some money.
All in all, some lovely distractions to keep us all occupied and happy.
