In (American) football, victory formation is used when the quarterback takes the snap and immediately kneels to the ground, ending the play on contact. Typically, it’s run when a team is winning and just needs the clock to run down, in order to preserve the win.
After almost 26 months (!!) we are running victory formation in our household.
Today is the day Dave presented and defended his thesis (and received an “A – Excellent” mark, I might add). He is now a Master of Viticulture and Enology.
Today, we celebrate. I’ll write more about my thoughts on this whole adventure later, once I wrap my mind around the fact that it’s coming to an end and that we (he) did it.
For now, I’m just going to let the clock run out on our European adventure and enjoy victory.
Way to go Dave – you should be so proud and I’m guessing relieved! I know your Mom, Colleen, is going to be so happy to have you both home. Go Victory Formation!!!
Thanks Robin! We are very excited to be getting back to the USA, but it has been a wonderful experience over here!
