Legal Question in Family Law in Alabama

Had a divorce trial and judge divorced us and in the order divided up personal property, dealt with custody and visitations and so on. We have 30 days to amend the order. Assuming the 30 days passes and neither one of us asks to amend, is that is? Or will we have to sign something? If so, is it exactly like the judge's order or more detailed?

The judge's order is final unless (a) you file a motion to alter, amend, or vacate the order within 30 days, or (b) you file notice of appeal within 42 days. If you disagree with anything in the order, you need to ask the judge to reconsider what was ordered or file an appeal.
