I have a driver's permit! The State of Pennsylvania will allow me to learn to drive! Yippie! I can't wait until Josh gets home so that I can tell him the good news!

Speaking of Josh, I finally saw him yesterday! F-i-n-a-l-l-y!

Yesterday after work I was outside on the back patio teaching Alex the Cha Cha when Josh walked over. He said he had been watching us from his window and wondered what we were doing. Alex explained about the talent show act and told him that he was learning to dance. Josh looked at me and said, "You're a brave woman, Nicole Bradford." It was really cute the way he said it. Alex asked him to stay and watch so that he could get some feedback so Josh actually hung around for a while!

After our dance lesson I walked out front with Alex and Josh. I asked them if they wanted to do a haunted hayride on Saturday night. Molly and I had been planning it, and she was going to ask Josh but since he was there I figured I'd talk to him about it. He said that he'd like to go but his friend from NY might be visiting him. He'd have to find out if his friend would want to go. All I have to say is: His friend had better want to go!

We were also talking about the camping trip - Alex can't go! :( Anyway, Alex left and Josh and I were still talking. I told him that I don't have any camping gear. He said he had a tent that I could use but I'd have to get a sleeping bag. I asked him if he'd go with me to buy one and he said yes!

At that point Aunt Lu walked out and told me to come in for dinner so that was the end of our conversation. I'm just so glad that I finally saw him!
