Swearing In Ceremony

The last step in becoming a licensed attorney was for Jake to be sworn in to the Supreme Court in Virginia.  He went down to Richmond and participated in the ceremony. 




The ceremony itself was scheduled to take place on the day that Hurricane Sandy hit our area.  Absolutely everything was canceled that day EXCEPT the ceremony.  The federal government was all shut down, the government offices in Richmond were shut down, and even the Virginia Bar Association (the people hosting the ceremony) was shut down. But they didn't reschedule the swearing in.  I really wanted to go to the ceremony, but I didn't want to risk going into labor in a hurricane in Richmond so I stayed home.
