Finalization Day

On June 21st we finalized Faithe's adoption. This is a day we will always remember. At the beginning of June Cart was called away for work. This assignment was one he almost turned down. Right after he turned it down he called me and I told him he needed to accept the job and he could participate in the finalization over the phone. This job was extra income we needed with me not working this summer. When we did the numbers we realized his travel day would be the day of finalization. So he called immediately to the bosses and asked for permission to fly into the city of finalization instead of our home city. He was given permission. The Monday before finalization he was given permission to finally book his travel. I was one nervous momma. So the day of Grampa and Gramma drove down early to be at the airport when daddy arrived. Then after Faithe had breakfast Momma and Nana drove down. We all met at IKEA (always try to make a trip there when we go to this city). We had lunch fed Faithe and then shopped a little. The awesome thing is the courthouse was literally 5 min from IKEA. Amazing! 

After some shopping we drove to court. We met our attorney just outside the courtroom. He went over a few things and then we were called in. I think we were sworn in...hmmm..just one of those minor details. Afterwards we did a few pictures and then headed to the little cafe a few floors below. Our attorney met us with a certified copy of the finalization papers. It was an amazing day!
