IT'S THE APOCOLYPSE ! ! ! !

It didn't bother me when we started the new millenium...





It didn't bother me when I turned 40......





It doesn't bother me that my hair is now highlighted with gray....






But, when I signed this document below, I felt like I was signing my death certificate. It's....CASSIE'S DRIVER'S LICENSE PERMIT FORM!!!!!!!! DUM-DUM-DUM-DUM-DUM!

My hands were shaking as I went to sign the consent. After a few moments of hesitation...I brought myself to sign my name...

Here we are standing outside the Dept of Licensing. Yes, Cassie was horrified I was taking her picture, but even she knew from the glaze in my eyes not to challenge me that day...

Here is the family outside. We got there early so we didn't have to wait in line.

After we took our number, we took our seat...

Cassie's number is F2 !

I reminded Cassie that I was taking these pictures no matter how annoyed she looked and that I was posting them online for the world to see so that she better start smiling nicer.

They called our name! Dad takes over from here. (notice the glass wall on the right of the picture?)

Here is a pic from the other side of that glass wall

Colton is thinking about all the places his sister will get to drive him soon

I wonder what this look is for?

Here she is taking her eye test!

Blah! She passed and gets to sign her learners permit!

Her first picture taken at the DOL! Say cheese!

She did it! She is an official permitted driver in the State of Washington! Heaven help us all...I say that, but then considering we all survived Danette and Dustin's driving I am sure we'll be in safer hands with Cassie. Love you baby!
