The Deed is Done
A couple weeks later than we had anticipated Josh has finally submitted his thesis. Because I work in the Registry office I was right there when he walked in with three bound copies. What a moment. He also chose that moment to show me the dedication which I had never seen before. Nothing like choking back tears while the phone is ringing.
Now we wait until the viva (oral defense) ... my hubby is nervous. It's out of his hands now - no revising allowed! But he's keeping his mind off it by doing the indices for his supervisor's new book. Doesn't that sound thrilling?
We're headed to The Vine Leaf to celebrate - never been there before and it's supposed to be really nice.

Congrats! We had a picnic yesterday with Joe and Darcee and he told us it was done. Also- we will all be home for Christmas this year so we definitely need to block out some catch up time. We are trying to get dibs on all you Rayburn related folks for at least one evening before the days inevitably get filled up. When do you get home?

Yay!!! What a moment! We're so excited for both of you -- I know that it is definitely a joint effort. He'll do great at the defense. Have a bottle of champagne ready for the good Doctor then. Any word on when you'll be headed to this continent?

Yea for Josh! Yea for you!
Thank you for the anniversary wishes, by the way. I was loving remembering your part in the ceremony and reception today...5 years...
I hope to send a respectable e-mail soon. The days get away from me...
Love you.
