January 1st 2018.

"Come on kids. We need to get going to Grandma's house soon." Joel yelled up the stairs.

"I can't find my shoes." Sydney yelled back. It took a few minutes but she was ready to head off to Grandma's house to celebrate the New Year. A few minutes later Victor came running down stairs too, holding his three-year-old sister, Isabelle.

"Shoot. We are going to be late." Joel said looking down at his watch. "Julia, are you almost ready to go?"

"Yeah. I am just changing the babies diaper so he doesn't smell up the whole car."

"Thank you." Joel yelled back, "Love you."

"Then you can hold Alex." Julia said handing him the baby. "All right all kids to the car."

They all piled into the back of their new minivan, driving onward to Julia's mom's house.

"Mom! Sydney is making faces at me." Victor yelled pointing at Sydney.

"I am not!" she shot back.

"Guys knock it off. Lets try to start the New Year off in peace, okay?" Their dad tried to coax them. It was to late. Alexander started crying next to Sydney. Isabelle dropped her doll under the seat, and Victor was too annoyed to get it.

Joel looked behind him from the drivers seat and rolled his eyes. "Remind me why we have so many kids again." He teased Julia.

"Because we love them." She said with a joking grin on her face.

"Oh ya. Thanks for reminding me." He said, and they drove onward to the Braverman's household.

"That's excellent Haddie. We will see you in a few hours." Adam said closing the phone.

"What was that all about?" Kristina asked washing the dishes from breakfast.

"Well it turns about Jessica's parents aren't going to Minnesota after all, so Jessica is going to come with Haddie to Mom's house. They are driving up right now."

"Great. Now the real question is if we can get our other daughter in the car." Kristina said before yelling into the other room. "Nora! Hurry up! We need to leave in about 10 minutes."

"Ok Mom." She yelled back. Max stormed into the room a few minutes later. "I can not go to Grandma's house."

"What's wrong Max?" Adam asked.

"I borrowed a lense from Uncle Hank and I told him the next time I saw him I would give it back to him, but now I have lost it. So I can't see him again without it, and I don't have it."

"I don't think Hank will care. Just tell him you are still looking for it."

"No," Max explained, "I can't do that. That would be breaking my promise to him, and breaking promises is bad."

"It will be fine." Adam tried to reassure.

"No it won't be. Also, Hank is my boss, so I would be lying to my boss." Max pointed out.

"Max, you are going. End of story." Adam said, before walking out of the room.

"I am ready." Nora said walking into the room. After that, the Braveman clan was off to the New Years celebration.

"Come on Natalie. We are going to be late." Drew said pacing around their apartment.

"Relax. We are on time. Its only a 45 minute drive." Natalie said, kissing him on the check.

"Sorry, I guess I am just excited. I don't think I have seen most of the family since my graduation, and that was last May."

"You are such a weirdo." She laughed, and walked out the door.

"Crosby, I am not sure I can go." Jasmine said, walking into their bedroom.

"What? Why wouldn't you be able do go?" He asked cluelessly.

"I don't feel so good. I am kind of feeling sick."

"No. You are probably going to be fine. Did you eat something weird last night?"

"No Crosby. I think it might have to do with the fact that I am 7 months pregnant."

"Oh yeah. That might make sense. Well if you don't feel good, we can come home, okay?

She sighed. "Fine."

"Zeek! Can you please stop screaming! We need to be going to great-grandma's house! You love it their!" Amber begged, trying to get her son to calm down.

"I don't want to go! I want to watch t.v!" he screamed.

"Is something going on in here?" Jason asked.

"Yes. He won't stop screaming." Amber explained rolling her eyes, "and I need to get us out of the house soon. Is Jenny doing okay?"

"Yeah. She is just coloring in her room. She is excited to go."

Amber groaned. "Why can't my child be as easy as yours?"

"We are all a big family now." Jason said smiling and leaving the room. Amber looked down and saw the wedding ring on her hand. It always made her smile.

Camille heard a knock on the door. She was in the kitchen making food, when she heard it. She looked up at a photo of Zeek hanging on the wall. She smiled and said, "The family is here."
