Happy Mel-Day Indeed!


She may look like just a pretty face, but under that stylish hat (worn for the Oaks Race at Churchill Downs), there's a powerful brain and determination of iron.  Congratulations to #3 child, Melinda/Mindy/Mel for passing ALL of her written comprehensive exams for her masters in speech language pathology at the University of Louisville.  She graduates in May......just in time to go job-hunting.  Way to go, sweetie!

(Thanks to her hubby Mark for coining the new word: Mel-Day!)

Mark & Mel at their ring ceremony in Mexico May 2006.  (Aren't they cute?)



And here's another pic: Mel as a cowgirl in Mexico.  You think she might have a thing for hats?  She gets it from her father.

Finally, my favorite picture of her: Paris 2001 in contemplation on the steps of Sacre Coeur:

(And, yes, I know we have you two other kids, but today is Mel-Day!!)
