Marriage Day!

Today is a historic day here in California - today is the first day that marriages between same sex couples will be performed! The local UU church had a small group of people gather outside the courthouse down the street from our home so we joined them to show our support for the newlyweds. They wanted to make sure there was a positive presence there just in case there was anyone protesting. There wasn't - they saved that for the main county courthouse, I guess. But we did get to see a few happy couples. The kids also got to meet some of the people there who we will bet getting to know as we become more involved in the church, so that was nice. They were the only little kids there, though, and they spent most of the time hunting for pandas in the trees.
