Ralph and Eddie are birthday buddies- Ralph is September 21 and Eddie is September 23. This is a big birthday for Eddie, he's 16 now and can get his driver's permit. Here in jersey you have to be 17 to get a license, but at 16 after passing the written test you can get on the road training, and drive with a licensed driver.
Ralph was planning to get a new truck anyway, and it was the perfect time! The blue truck is an 07 with only 65K miles on it, in terrific shape. It's a safe vehicle for a beginning driver.
It wasn't a surprise, Eddie guessed. But it was still so much fun! He was so excited that he was vibrating!
They were in it, under it, and under the hood!
And of course there was cakes! It was a super day. Whenever Eddie would disappear, we'd look out the window, and he was in his truck. As family and friends arrived, he'd give them a tour of his truck.
It was a fun party. Mike and Donna were there, and Frank and Charlotte, Sharon and Jim and most of their kids, Ed and Jeanne, Christ and Pam, and other friends of Heather and Ed's. Plenty of food, as always. All in all, a lovely way to spend a Saturday.
