Thank you for all replies last round, again so many great ideas. I've now included the instruction after each family unit, there were not many votes either way, so hopefully it will work for everyone, the little back story is at the bottom of the post. Next round will be up on Wednesday and as always feel free to join the game at any time.

The next five years brought five more grandchildren for Velma who fully enjoys her new role as grandmother while taking care of Walter who celebrated respectable 88th birthday this year. As a proud grandmother she even battled her own fears and traveled to England on plane two years ago to meet Mamie’s kids that she only saw on photographs before. Mamie and Cedric are now proud parents of three after their two sons now aged four and three joined Allegra. Three seems to be the ultimate number for this part of family as Daisy and Jack welcomed a brother for Timothy and Diane four years ago rounding up their kids count to three, and Tess and Aloysius had two more daughters who joined now five year old Casey.
Clyde and Marie-Thérèse now own a small cottage outside of town where they moved after Clyde decided to retire. Just sitting at home and doing nothing is not really Clyde’s thing and while he renovates the cottage on his own he also spends a lot of time wood crafting in the shed, while Marie-Thérèse practices her landscape painting skills in the beautiful Canadian nature.
Greta and Archie’s home has indeed become a very quiet place once all their daughters got married and moved out. Three years after Rachel, Julia who worked as accountant at that time married a protestant pastor and only a year later Mara, a waitress, married a retired professional baseball player who was hired as a new high school coach. The peace and quiet changes though once their seven grandchildren arrive. Julia is now mom to two little boys aged two and one, while Mara and her husband have a one year old son and a newborn daughter and Rachel and David welcomed two little boys aged three and one in addition to five year old Jenny.
