B154 and B155

B154 and B155 - we were just numbers at the Arizona Motor Vehicle Division as we sat for about 2 hours. We made the best of it though - Trey was a champ. He loves to watch and flirt with people, so he entertained many of the customers around us. Our mistake was going on a Friday afternoon which is one of their busiest times. What I didn't realize was that my passport still had my maiden name on it, and I forgot about that and didn't bring my marriage license with my name change on it. So after waiting all that time, we had to go back home to get the marriage license. Thankfully, this nice guy Krag that waited on us didn't have us wait in line again - he just told us to come back to his booth and he would take care of us.

Times like this are always interesting learning points in our marriage because they show us how differently we respond to situations. David has no patience for standing in lines and people being seemingly incompetent. I definitely struggle with patience in other areas, but in situations like this, I don't tend to be impatient. I know that waiting in lines is something that can't be avoided sometimes (unless you are smart and don't go on a Friday afternoon when EVERYONE else is getting their driver's license too). Thankfully, we balance each other out for the most part in times like this.

In the end, we both got our driver's licenses. We also got our Arizona license plate. While standing in line for the picture, I had given Trey his container of Gerber VeggiePuffs to entertain himself with. He somehow got the lid off and proceeded to dump the entire 3/4 container all over himself. He was so happy to have all the snacks he wanted!
