Yesterday Steven had his Final Oral Exam. He has been working up to this point for months/years in his education. The past few weeks have been stressful because of his final written exam being 2 weeks ago and this oral exam yesterday. At the end of his oral exam is when they told him if he passed, or failed. If he were to fail the last 2 1/2 years would have been a waste of time (no pressure)
Thankfully, and of course I had not doubt that he would, he passed. Yeah!!!!!! Because of this great event he is now
ABD(All But Dissertation) and is officially a PHD candidate. I am so proud of him for everything that he does and how hard he works for us.
There is nothing better than to have a great supportive husband, that works hard at supporting the family, being a great husband, father, and member of the church. Steven is so wonderful at juggling it all and I just want to let him know that we are happy to support him though this journey. I love you and all that you are.
I am sorry if you were wanting to see pictures of Turkeys because there are none here (unless you count Steven or I) Turkey Run is a State Park near us. Thanks to some wonderful friends or our who watch our kids for us Steven and I were able to have a day off.(I know who gets a day off from being a parent) We are lucky and we took advantage of it. We had a great hike then we went to lunch afterward. We have been very bad about going and seeing all the fun things that are around us so we are so grateful for this opportunity to go and see it. Next time we will take the kids and see how they do at hiking:)
Ladders to get us out of the crevasse we were in, Steve thought it would have bee more fun to try and get out without them
Should I climb up on the top of the rocks or go down through the water?
