It was a scene that  I, being a romance author, couldn't even brainstorm up, as my teenager, was the hero and Michelle, a wonderfully energetic young lady,  was the heroine for this new  book, a first chapter in what is expected to be a life journey for all three of them, and, yes, I did say "three", as baby Jason Rome Tinsley, who slept through the ceremony at The Franklin County Courthouse today, is the Blessing that this military family will share.  The couple had planned a lavish wedding, but, when Jason's step-grandma, Mrs. Joyce Bugg Robinson,  got ill and recently passed away, that changed plans.  Michelle had waited for Jason for a long time, through his chemical bargade and security training for the military, thus instead of postponing the wedding again, Jason's aunt, who works at The Capital Tower downtown, suggested they get married at The Franklin County Courthouse.  Judge Ted Collins officiated the wedding and was very nice to the family.  The couple shared a fonduant Bon-Bon from Magee's Bakery, a favorite place of his when he was little.  Aunt and foster mom, Sicily Yoder, was photographer.  Jason plans on transferring to the local Fort Boone National Guard where his uncle works at in the hanger section.
