All eyes on the Supreme Court.<br /><br />Suzie and I have so many anniversaries we can't keep track and it's a challenge to know which one to celebrate; so, we celebrate every day. :O) (I know sickening sweet):<br /><br />* Commitment ceremony: October 19, 1996<br />* Marriage license received from Multnomah County: March 9, 2004 (taken away soon after)<br />* Domestic partnership: February 4, 2008<br />* Marriage ceremony in case the courts reversed the decision: May 31, 2014<br />* Larger wedding ceremony: July 12, 2014<br /><br />You're absolutely right, the Mormon Church has plenty of beams in their own eye.<br /><br />Thanks for reading and connecting!

The decision will be appealed and will go to the Supreme Court. But still, this is indeed a sign that the times have changed. And I too wish the Mormons especially would shut up about gay marriage. (Counterfeit? really?) If they're so concerned about the institution, they should turn their attention to the creepy polygamists in their own community who marry minors and flagrantly skirt the law.<br /><br />Cheers to you and Suzie!
