George has been in jail for just shy of a year, and was finally released on May 30. Ethan has been counting down (George was too I'm sure!) and was beyond excited to see him again. He was originally supposed to be released at 8am, but for some reason they bumped it to 8pm. (They only release at 8am and 8pm). So, he had to just sit and wait all day when he thought he was getting out in the morning.
Mart's grandparents are back in town for the summer and wanted everyone to meet at the jail to welcome George back to reality. There was quite a large group, which I think overwhelmed George a little after not seeing everyone for so long. He just focused on one or two people, mainly saying hi to Ethan who just loves George.
After George filled out his release paperwork, we all headed off to get some ice cream since it was a bit late for dinner.
Yeah, it's next to impossible to get all the little boys to sit still long enough to snap a picture and smiles are definitely out of the question for all of them ... but they were having fun and loved their ice cream.
Ethan was pretty much on cloud 9!
We are happy George is finally out, it was a long year of visits to the jail and paying for his necessities each month. We hope that he can keep his head straight and clean up his act and stay out this time for good. He managed to find a job a couple weeks before he got out (he was on work release for a week or so to find a job) and I hope that he sticks with it and starts to be a little more grown up than he's been acting as of late.

I can't believe it's been a year! I'm so glad for him that he's done and hope he can find some contentment in his life. We'd love to have you all over sometime!
