Can You Do Donuts When You Pull In Your Driveway?

Maybe if you are a teenager.

See who's behind the wheel? Neither of the adults in the family.

It's Sparky!

There was a repairman's truck in our driveway when I got home from taking Buddy to the doctor (poor guy's sick) so I parked out in front of the house. Hubby decided to let one of the girls back the van up and then pull it in the driveway. They've never been behind the wheel of a vehicle, unless it was in Mario Kart Wii.

He asked me to pick which girl. Now that's just not fair. I picked Sparky, because she wins more at Mario Kart.

A note to all of you out there — being better at Mario Kart might just mean that they are a little more reckless.

Sparky had gunned it to get it at this point (in the above picture) to get it backed up to here. My stomach already hurt a little from laughing, and it had hardly started.

Turn, turn!

Um, it was a little impossible since she'd left a little rubber on the road this time. This one took a back-up and a do-over.

And here the vehicle is pulled 'straight' in the driveway.

Compare that to Chatty's, since Hubby decided to pull the van out to the end of the driveway and let her pull it in. Just to make it kind of fair and all.

She also shows a little more enthusiasm.



We have one that wants to use both feet (Sparky) and one that wants to look down and around the steering wheel to make sure where the pedals are, while she's driving (Chatty). I'm not so sure my heart's ready for this. I definitely know this job will be Hubby's 100 percent.

They don't look old enough to drive, but they sure are cute!
