We went to court today to finalize Nora's adoption....the way our lawyer explained it was that we essentially sued our daughter to become her parents...how nice :)
Court was at The Daley Center downtown and they happen to have the coolest Christmas market goin' on right now so we indulged in a little shopping, a hot beverage and some great food!
I had the German equivalent to a Spam sandwich with sauerkraut and a boot (yes, a boot..anyone see the movie Beerfest? That's all I could think about) filled with hot spiced wine (yeah, I had wine before court..I needed to relax!) Soooooo yummy!
Here we are serving Nora her court summons!
We are officially official!

She just doesn't look like the sueing type!It's always those innocent looking kiddos!:)
If only the rest of the process could be that easy!! Is Michelle your attorney?
Congratulations on being a paper family!
I can't wait to get downtown and see all the Christmas decorations. Thanks for giving me a taste :)
Congratulations you three! I'm glad Nora didn't fight the "suit" ;-) All the best.
Shelly Ballard was our attorney :)
Congratulations!
(Again - I haven't even started and you guys came home after us... yep, bad mommy needs to get on it)
Yippee! One more major event to check off. Now for that crummy COC.
You all make a beautiful family.
Happy making it official day!
