After hundreds of years, Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus are making it official – they are getting married and making it legal.
數(shù)百年下來(lái)，圣誕公公和圣誕婆婆終于決定把事兒給辦了：正式結(jié)婚。

But first they needed a marriage license.
但首先他們得有個(gè)結(jié)婚證。

So York County native Fran Bradham and longtime fiancee Jack Mounts, who live in Georgia, went to the York County Probate Court Monday to fill out their marriage license application – fully decked out as Santa and Mrs. Claus.
弗蘭?布拉漢住在約克縣，男友杰克?馬恩慈來(lái)自佐治亞州。相戀多年的兩人近日決定到約克縣地方法院填寫領(lǐng)證申請(qǐng)——兩人分別身著圣誕公公和圣誕婆婆的行頭。

“People pulled out their cellphones and started taking pictures – they just loved Santa and Mrs. Claus filling out the forms to get married,” Bradham said.
布拉漢說(shuō)：“人們都拿出手機(jī)拍我們——由此可見(jiàn)，大家多么希望圣誕公公和圣誕婆婆能真的領(lǐng)一回證啊?！?/p>

Stunned probate court staffers had seen just about everything over the years, but never Santa and his bride.
地方法院的工作人員也很吃驚，他們這么多年什么都見(jiàn)過(guò)，就是沒(méi)見(jiàn)過(guò)圣誕老人和未婚妻來(lái)領(lǐng)證。

“I believe it is a first, certainly in my five years here,” chuckled Probate Judge Carolyn Rogers.
法官卡洛琳?羅杰斯笑著說(shuō)：“我覺(jué)得這是頭一回，我工作5年來(lái)的頭一回?！?/p>
