I incorporated my father and cousin in on this, only the personalities are totally different. So know you know my dad’s name, my love for my state, and my little cousin’s name.

Well, this is it, everyone. No more. No sequel. Nada. I know some might want a sequel, but I think that this is enough. I’m not good with sequels... My inspiration is just gone when writing one. Thanks for the support!! (Note the five exclamation marks?) The ceremony is at the end!

Chapter Seventeen

Twins, Two Weddings, and Awards

Three Years Later:

“Happy birthday, Kris!” Allison presented a big birthday cake to the little boy sitting on his mom’s lap. His sister was being held by his father. Robert smiled down at his little girl, Anika. He and Skye had gotten married less than two years ago, and had twins. They were celebrating Anika’s birthday, too, but Allison had made two separate, and little, cakes for them. They were turning one. Allison and Greg had also married, but about two months ago. Allison was just barely showing. Cuddy and Wilson had been dating for three months now, and Greg no longer worked at PPTH. Robert had taken a job that required less hours at work at another hospital, and Skye still worked at PPTH, just not as a fellow. Allison continued to work, but Greg liked to stay home and was currently working on composing some music, all of which his newfound family loved, but he hated.

Greg emerged from the kitchen carrying the other cake for Anika. Anika looked a lot like her mother, and so did Kris, who had his daddy’s blonde hair. Anika was quiet, and immediately bonded with Greg. She rarely cried, and worried her parents with her ability to sleep through most of the night. Kris, however, was always crying. No matter what anyone did, he always wanted to be with his mommy, and would have a fit if he wasn’t. Skye and Robert had moved into a split-famliy home, three bed, three bath, with Greg and Allison on the other side. It was very helpful when you are raising kids, as you can knock on the walls if you need anything.

Anika giggled as the cake was placed in front of her. It was a striped blue, pink, and purple cake (this was Greg’s making), strawberry-flavored. On top of all that frosting, there was “Happy First Birthday Anika!” written in green lettering. Greg had spent all day in the kitchen working on it, much to the surprise of the rest of the family. Jacob had flown down to see the babies, and was thinking about moving here to be close to his grand kids.

Greg had decided against moving to North Dakota, not yet. He wanted to be close to the little kids he now loved so much. He smiled as Anika stuck her hand right in the middle of the lettering. Allison set down the dark-blue and bright red cake with black lettering in front of Kris, who just looked at it, wondering if he should touch it. He was more conservative and worried than his carefree sister. Skye smiled at her picky son. She lifted her son’s hand and placed it on the cake. Upon seeing his mom’s approval, he went all out. Before anyone could get a camera out the kids were covered in cake, and so were their parents. Allison smiled at she took a couple of pictures. Jacob pulled out his camera and did the same. Anika noticed that Greg didn’t have any cake on him, so, using as much power as she could, she threw a piece of cake right at him, hitting him square in the nose. Allison grinned as she took a picture of the dumbfounded Greg. He grinned before wiping it off his face and taking a bite. Anika smiled before doing the same. She giggled. Allison could see Anika a few years from now, following Greg everywhere, mimicking everything he did. She couldn’t wait to see his reaction to all the little girl’s questions. The family all shared a smile as the little ones played with their cakes.

Awards:

First off, to all of you who reviewed. I would name all of you, but that would take quite a while when you can just go back and read through the reviews. Just know that you are appreciated, and for those of you who don’t have anything posted, you have no idea how wonderful it is to know that your stories are being read and enjoyed. Thanks! And there's only one award... Computer time has been limited. Sorry!

Now, for the best reviewer (gets award handed to by Hugh Laurie himself):

saz86, for taking the time to R&R a majority of my stories. Thank you much.

And again, thank you all for the continued support. You guys really make me want to write more... There should be another one (camping trip, food fights, evil mosquitoes) coming up soon. And then an angsty one. But I’ve had so much inspiration from trying to fit five people in a motor home and making s’mores over candles and watching marshmallows explode in the microwave (we have the best family trips!) that I have to take a shot at a camping trip. So, this story has come to an end. Goodbye, all those of you who read this. Maybe I’ll see you next time.
