The wedding preparations are perfect. Flowers, a new walkway, an arch, a cake--Lola spent a lot of her precious money to make the wedding beautiful. Small, but elegant and beautiful. Everyone is seated, Little Jade holds her mommy's hand and walks her up the aisle. She places her hand in Green's and goes to sit down. Then the unthinkable happens. Green gets that look on his face again like he had at the birthday party, swallows hard, and stammers out, "I'm so sorry, I really have to go. I can't do this. I'm so sorry." And he leaves Lola standing alone at the altar. Everyone is in utter disbelief and Lola is convinced that this is all just a REALLY bad dream! 

Forest and Spring come over all dressed up for the wedding, and enjoy playing some Red Hands on the porch they used to play on growing up. They are really happy for their mom and dad, and thrilled to be part of their wedding! 

"Wow, Mom, can you believe you're FINALLY getting married to Daddy?" "Sometimes I can't, honey. But it REALLY is happening today!" "YAY!" Jade shouts happily. (I love her new little outfit that matches her face paint.) 

"Thanks, Wisteria, for calling to wish my mom and Green a happy wedding day! Sorry you guys couldn't make it. My mom talked Green out of having a huge party, and just having all of their kids together here. . . . Yeah, I know you understand . . . I'll show you all the pictures! Thanks again for calling!" 

Another shot of Autumn, in better light. I think she may be my favorite teen girl of Green's, but they are all so pretty, it's hard to decide! I think I need to change that outfit, though. 

As the family is about to dive into the cakes, suddenly Green gets this strange look on his face, says he's not feeling too good, and starts walking home. They all think that's strange, that he could have just lay down in their house, and the rest of the party is a bit subdued. 

And Reed comes back down transitioned into a toddler, complete with the confetti Aspen threw at the same time he tossed Reed into the air. 

He tosses the baby up into the air while his mom tries to stop this annoying coughing she's been doing recently. 

Aspen brings the baby out to see if the next cake is out and ready for him. Aspen's friend from school who was hanging out with him while he was watching the baby joins in the celebrating. (I can't remember her name at the moment.) 

Check Autumn out! Pretty, pretty! 

. . . then start jumping up and down and cheering to see Autumn grow up well into a teenager! 

It's transition time! Everyone holds their breaths . . .  

After a nice birthday dinner, Autumn blows out the candles on her cake. Her mom, dad and sisters watch her while Aspen takes care of the baby. 

Green comes over for the party and snuggles Reed while Lola gives poor Kelly a big ol' lecture because she didn't clean the house good enough for the party. Lola is getting a little stressed out with planning the birthday party and her wedding party coming up soon, too! Green's not sure he likes seeing this side of Lola. 

Jade is happy about the new dress that she's going to wear to Autumn and Reed's joint birthday party today! 

At Lola's house, little Reed is growing like a weed, ha. And he's still the apple of Aspen's eye. 

No, it's just Cadet, using his levitating/teleporting trick to go to bed. Lazy kid doesn't want to go to the trouble of walking all the way to the bedroom. :-) 

What's this? Is a ghost getting into the bed? 

And Grey definitely has green babies on his mind as well, as he feels his kick for the first time.  

Orchid still loves to stargaze, wondering about the aliens who keep gracing their family with beautiful green babies.
