Madison and Elissa welcome two lovely ladies into their home and their sons' hearts.

2. The more time Kerri Vogel spent with the Greene family, getting to know Bennett’s younger brother and
parents, the more she fell in love with him. One afternoon, when Kerri didn’t have to work, Bennett
drove her to Central Park, the first place he’d confessed his love.
Getting down on one knee, Bennett asked Kerri to make him the happiest man alive. “Kerri Vogel, you
light up my life even more brightly than this diamond. Having you next to me for the rest of my life
would be an honor. Would you make me the happiest man alive and become my bride?”

3. Kerri gazed down at the giant rock before her. She had no idea how Bennett could afford such a ring. But
it wasn’t the ring that made her decision. Kerri had been in love with Bennett since the moment she first
laid eyes on him in high school. She squealed her answer and could barely stand still long enough for
Bennett to slip the engagement ring on her finger.

4. The wedding was soon upon them. Kerri worried over her appearance in the bathroom mirror, carefully
hiding from her soon-to-be husband. Her future mother-in-law had helped her with her hair and Aly had
carefully done her make-up for the ceremony.

5. Bennett couldn’t believe the day had finally arrived. He stared nervously into the mirror, reciting his
vows over and over in his head. He didn’t want to screw up this magical day.

6. The couple met their guests at Central Park. Kerri couldn’t think of a more perfect start to their official
life together than to start it where their romance had begun. Bennett took the time to welcome his sister,
rubbing her heavily pregnant belly.

7. Carter used the distraction of arriving guests to sneak off with Sharon. They’d been dating for a few
weeks and Carter finally had the courage to kiss her. It was only a quick peck, but Sharon’s face lit up
with a beautiful smile and she couldn’t wait to discover just what else her relationship with the youngest
Greene held for her future.

8. Bennett and Kerri were married in front of the plaza fountain. It was a beautiful, sunny day, which the
couple was thankful for.
“Kerri, my sweet, I could never imagine a more perfect day or a more beautiful bride. After coming to my
senses after graduating high school, I realized I did not want to live my life without you. More
importantly, I don’t think I could live my life without you. Kerri, you know just what to say to cheer me
up on my darkest days. Your smile lights up my world. And I promise to love you every minute of every
hour of every day long after they’ve put me in the ground,” Bennett said, gazing into his bride’s eyes.

9. “Bennett Xavier, I couldn’t be happier to become a member of the Greene family today. I never thought I
had a chance with Mister Popular, but amazingly you picked me. You love me. You swept me off my feet
and I feel like a fairytale princess standing here right now. You’ll have my heart until the day I die,” Kerri
promised, a tear rolling down her cheek.
Bennett slipped a wedding band onto Kerri’s finger.

10. The audience (Madison and Elissa, Carter and Sharon, Aly and Emmett, and the Vogels) applauded as
the couple shared their first kiss as husband and wife.

11. And of course, Bennett and Kerri took full advantage of their honeymoon. Though it was not their first
night together, it was more special than the rest, because Bennett knew the next morning he would be
waking up next to his wife.

12. A few months later, Kerri found herself extremely ill. Faint smells upset her stomach and her nose was
sensitive to everything. She blamed it all on the flu, but deep down she hoped for more exciting things.

13. Madison had become forgetful in his old age. One evening he left a pot of stew boiling on the stove.
Quickly a fire had started in the Greenes’ newly renovated kitchen.
Thankfully, Kerri was home and heard the alarm from the second floor. She raced down and
extinguished the fire, while her father-in-law stood by.

14. Carter tried to spend as much time with his father as he could. They were very close friends and even in
his teen years, Carter wanted to keep that relationship alive. Even when tired, he’d ask his father for help
with calculus or astronomy before heading to bed.

15. Since Madison spent most of his time at home, he decided to take up painting. The old man wasn’t very
good at the new hobby, but it kept him from going stir crazy while his wife, sons and daughter-in-law
were out of the house.

16. He also maxed out the Athletic trait, a lifelong goal for him after retiring.

17. Finally, Carter was a young adult. Done with high school, he’d finally decided what he wanted to do with
his life. As his brother had once overheard his mother say, Carter chose Forensic Specialist: Dynamic
DNA Profiler as his lifetime wish. He also gained the absent minded trait, which didn’t seem to affect the
youngest Greene child on a regular basis.

18. Immediately after aging, Carter called up Sharon. He’d found that his longtime girlfriend had also aged
up and he couldn’t be more overjoyed.

19. After running inside the police station to fill out an application, Carter made a snap decision. He’d
bought a fairly inexpensive ring and been carrying it around since before graduation. He knelt down in
front of Sharon who immediately covered her face in surprise.
“Sweet Sharon, you’ve been the greatest high school sweetheart a boy could ask for. Now we’re both
young adults and, well…I was just wondering…would you do me the honor of becoming my bride?”
Carter stuttered.

20. Sharon had only hoped for the proposal to come and quickly said yes. She proceeded to make out with
Carter in front of the police department and also accepted Carter’s invitation to move in to the Greene
family home.

21. The two young couples got along extremely well. They’d eat breakfast together before going off to work,
chatting and joking with one another. Still, in the back of Kerri and Sharon’s mind was the question of
which woman would soon bear another generation of the legacy.
That’s it for now! Return for the final chapter of Generation One.
