Is the Doctor in??????

Thank all good things on Mother Earth, my husband has defended his PhD thesis in Mechanical Engineering and is now a Doctor. Well, he can't perform CPR, but he can tell you all about thermal dynamics :)

It was a very long road, filled with big gigantic adviser bumps and bruises. This guy is a piece of work, but all is done now and we don't have to deal with him ever again. So, from here, the world gets bigger and brighter.

CONGRATULATIONS HUBBY, I love you and I'm very proud of you :)

You can go home again

Here's a taste of our summer: first meet with friends from Indiana because it turns out they all are from NY anyway :)

 

See Taughannock Falls on a nice hike

 

Big sis plays with Lil Man - catch me if you can

Turn over my first paid gig to my WONDERFUL client - she's cuter in real life

 

Learn to ride a bike - Pedal MAN, PEDAL

 

Play some soccer with my cousin

 

Realx with MAMA on the couch (she did a great job of taking care of me for almost the whole summer so Mom could work

 

Visit Mom's final resting pplace

 

Some of my hard work - painting milk cans and mailboxes

Realize you shouldn't leave home for 2 1/2 months with out having some one manage the garden, oops
