Wednesday was the third day of kindergarten and he had recess. That is about all we can get out of him. But we picked him up from COF an hour early today to go to a district justice to get married, right here in PA. It took Gloria a few days and many phone calls to find someone who would perform a ceremony, outside a church setting, and with a reasonable rate. When we arrived, Charles Clements made us feel comfortable and welcome to be there. He said he was glad to see this finally be legal and he had actually performed a ceremony before it was really legal in PA. When we walked in Baylor said he did not think this was a place for kids, it looked like a grown up place! But he was glad to be there, other than he was really shy around Mr. Clements.
And he got to play with the phone and took a ton of selfies while we waited for Mr. Clements to get ready.

And our last selfie as single ladies in PA.
Since we just needed this to be a legal process for PA, we had a very short exchange of basic vows, with 'I do's,' and everything. We did not get a picture of the ceremony because we were the only ones there and Baylor was being too shy to hold a camera at this point. But he did take a few afterward.
Mr. Clements let Baylor help him stamp all the paperwork. He was a big help! He asked us if we were going to change our last names and I said we are going to take Baylor's last name, Thatcher-Miller.
Not sure the face I am making but I did it in both pictures Mr. Clements took. I guess there will be no wedding photos on our walls! Afterward we went out to dinner at Bonefish Grill to celebrate. Congratulations to us both!
