Austin

Austin turned 15 on the 4th of November. He also earned his permit from drivers ed. OH BOY! His grandpa Brad "sold" him his 1977 Ford Thunderbird. Austin showed a lot of interest in the car and they started working on it. He asked grandpa about buying it and grandpa made him a deal that would only be a grandpa/grandson deal. Thanks Brad. Marshall and both boys have been having a great time working on the car. I don't see much of them with all the "male bonding" going on with a new project to work on, but thats ok.

Austin took us all for a spin last Sunday. Which is how we discovered a little work that needed to be done - Austin was driving (deep breath), and the 3 of us were with him. Going down Hwy 48 in the DARK and the lights shut off. They just went OFF. Marshall & I were trying to tell Austin what to do. He wasn't worried, "he could see just fine." Well we made it home safely, but I am thinking the driving practice needs to be with the father. I do not have what it takes........ Lord please give my son a guardian angel to watch over him! I'll take one too.
