Greg's admission to the Bar

On December 14th, Greg was sworn in to the Michigan State bar by his boss, the Honorable Justice Robert Young of Michigan Supreme Court, where he is working as a judicial clerk. Finally an office instead of just a desk with school books on it. I surprised Greg by coming to MI for the ceremony.
Gram went with us and had to get her picture with Justice Young. As she said, "Once in a lifetime".
Just as we were about to go into the court, there was a bomb scare so we had to evacuate the building. A perfect opportunity to be treated to lunch at the Detroit Athletic Club with Justice Young, his clerks and secretary.
We returned back to the Cadillac Building and proceeded into the Courtroom where Chris Hammer presented Greg to the Judge for the swearing in. (maybe I can figure out how to load that in and send it out later). Aunt Mary Ann, Uncle Jerome and Nick were also there for Greg's special day.
Pictured here are his staff; Carolyn (secretary), Amber, Chris (judicial clerks), the honoree, Tammy (Judge's permanent clerk) and of course, Justice Young. We went back into the office area and had one final picture of Greg with Justice Young and Kermit the Frog. A great group of people and a wonderful experience for Greg.
