Law and Order

 Who else can say they legally became a Family on Valentines Day? 
It took 6 months to get here and it's weird to think it's all legal. The first thing Lance said as we walked out of the courtroom was, wahoo I'm going to Preston! Up until this day we had to ask permission to leave the state.
 This day went just as you would probably imagine it. The whole process was only about 15 minutes long. I'm sure the judge likes these court proceedings better then others he gets to deal with on a regular basis. After everything was said and done we introduced our parents to the judge. Lances dad introduced himself and the judge asked him, "Did you go to South Cache and graduate in such and such year?" A giggle went through the courtroom. In high school Lances dad beat Judge Judkuns for State Championship in Wrestling. Good thing Judge made his ruling before he remembered who he was!
 I couldn't have asked for a better day! It's fun to think this wont be the last time we do this! Now there is just one last thing to do: be Sealed Forever! That's the real day to look forward too! 5 more days!

Yes, I'd go to court every day if they could be that neat! I really enjoyed seeing how delighted Lance and Dani were to get this far and how much they love this little guy!
