Marcus is 16!!!

We were in Cedar Rapids for state volleyball tournament on Saturday and found out that we could get Marcus' license there and that the bureau was on the same road as our hotel. So Marcus woke up on time Saturday morning and we went and got in this line(which looked worse than it was) and 20 minutes later we have another driver in the family!! YEAH!!
We celebrated with many friends (30 of them) at Applebees before the championship game that afternoon.








Yes - it was an exciting day and Marcus slept ALL THE WAY HOME - it's hard work turning 16.
Also, Western did win the championship game in three - we are state champs again. Western has won volleyball championships seven of the last eight years and the one year that they didn't (2005) they were 2nd. They have quite a program going and it's so fun to go and watch them.

Now what sports are up for you this winter. You guys are so busy with them, all the time. So surprised??????Marcus got his liscense (not really) Congratulations. Applebee reminds me, we still have some money oun our gift certificate from our anniv. so I guess we better just spend it and go out some day. Arn't they good? Sometimes I think our restaurant is a little bit slow, but good.
