Official Utahns, again!

Todd had the day off yesterday, so we took the plunge & became official Utahns, again, & hopefully for the last time!
We started our morning of fun by dropping the civic off to be inspected. Then we headed to Orem to get new drivers licenses. We lucked out & did not need to take the written test like we thought we would, since our licenses from four years ago don't expire until our birthdays in 2009. So, we just got new pictures taken, blah, paid our money & were done.
Then we picked up the civic in American Fork, took it home, & headed to Provo to get new plates. Emma was not happy with all this business, so we were lucky the DMV was not busy! As the guy typed in the civic info he asked "has this car been registered in Utah before?" Yep, this is it's 3rd set of Utah plates (it's had Virginia & Minnesota in between) & it's only 9 years old. This will be the last set of plates I put on this car!
Finally, we headed to an insurance office in Provo. We'd used these guys before during our other times living in Utah, so they had all our car info & the set up went relatively quickly.
We got home 4 1/2 hours after we had left, official state residents & no longer able to use the out of state plates as an excuse for not always knowing where we are going!

AAHH, the day when you get a drivers license that will last you for more than a few years! Looking forward to it!
