In the grand scheme of the entire universe and the institution of marriage, it really hasn't been that long since judges, ministers, notaries, etc. starting giving same-sex marriage a thumbs-up. And despite all the love we have for the Brangelinas and Bey-Zs out there, we're very much glad we have more badass LGBT families front and center to obsess over.
It's hard to even count all the amazing fams hogging the spotlight right now, but here are our faves -- they're all major inspirations, and we'd be very, VERY happy to be adopted by any one of them. If they're listening. And if they'll have us. Just so they know.

Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka bonded on the set of How I Met Your Mother, and their relationship is the reason Neil came out to the public. Their two kids, Gideon and Harper, were born via surrogate in 2010, and Neil and David were married in 2014. They consistently have the best/cutest/most perfect family Halloween costumes in all of history, and WE LOVE THEM. That's all.

After a three-year engagement, the five of them came together when Cynthia and Christine finally married in 2012.

Elton John and David Furnish started dating in 1993, and in 2005, they were one of the first couples to form a civil union under a brand-new UK law. They married officially in 2014, but their first son, Jackson, was born via surrogate in 2010. Elijah was born in 2013, cementing them as one of our fave celeb families of all time.

Jodie Foster has cited her two sons, Charlie and Kit, as the reason she takes on fewer projects now -- she says it's a sacrifice to leave home, and with a family as beautiful as hers, we can't blame her. She married actress and photographer Alexandra Hedison in 2014, and the whole fam lives in Los Angeles.
