Things are so crazy right now that I can’t even write a real post, but I’ll tide you all over with some pictures from Ewan’s graduation. This is Ewan amongst the other doctoral candidates. There are a couple more pictures on our photo site (the link is on the left), and I’ll post more once [...]

He Passed!

Ewan passed his dissertation defense on Thursday afternoon, and we have been celebrating ever since. He did a fantastic job with his public talk, and although the defense part with his committee was very tough he did an excellent job and passed with some corrections. Ewan’s parents were here for the big event, and somehow [...]
Ta Da!

Here is the completely finished draft of Ewan’s dissertation! A lot of late nights, sweat and tears went into this puppy, all 310 pages of it (at this point). I can’t say how proud I am of his accomplishments. This project really is amazing, even for a dissertation, in my humble opinion. Of course, there [...]
Getting Closer

Here is the poster we put up for Ewan’s defense talk yesterday. He had wanted to give the department a Victorian picture for them to print up the standard departmental posters, and I asked him if we could just make a Victorian style poster and print it ourselves. It turned out that we could, so [...]

My PEO chapter is busy gearing up for the state convention in June. We’re one of the hosting chapters, so a lot of the grunt work falls to us and boy is there a lot of it. I just finished a design to be used for the 50 year member luncheon, and my chapter liked [...]
Vet Schools

Wow, a lot of stuff has happened in the past week. Ewan got accepted into vet school at Dublin, wait listed at Edinburgh (after being rejected, go figure), and now finally accepted at Madison. Wahoo! He’s currently interviewing at Prince Edward Island and is not all that impressed, and he’s planning on canceling his interview [...]
Doctoral Robes

The MSU Bookstore just called to tell me that the order has been placed for Ewan’s robes! Yes, they can get the eight sided tam, and yes, they can get the tam in blue, and no, it’s no extra charge. Yay! He picked out the Sussex robes (the cheapest at a low-low price of $350 [...]

Here is absolute proof that we did in fact roll in the snow at the hot springs with Yury and Erin when they visited us about a week ago. It was a great way to celebrate Yury’s recently acquired green card. There are more fun pictures from the hot springs on our photo page, if [...]
