Family Dinner

It had been a few weeks since the whole gang had seen each other in person. But they texted or talked on the phone almost every day. It was different now that everyone had kids, but a good kind of different. Aria and Ezra were happier than ever with their "miracle baby" Daisy who is now 4 years old. Emily and Alison had their hands full with Lily and Grace, who are now 6. Hanna and Caleb have a 1 year old little girl named Bella who is the center of their world after Hanna suffered a miscarriage a few years back. And Spencer and Toby were very new to the parenting world with their 3 month old little boy named Carson.

They had all planned on meeting at Aria and Ezra's house and having dinner because their home was the biggest, after their book became a movie they decided to move out from above the brew and buy a real house, a very nice one at that. "Hey babe can you put Daisy in the outfit that I set out for her on her bed?" Aria shouted to Ezra from upstairs as she added the finishing touches to her makeup. "I'm on it!" Ezra shouted back.

"Daddy what are we getting ready for?" Daisy questioned as Ezra slipped on her shoes. "All of your aunties and uncles are coming over to visit" Daisy looked up at her dad with a excited look on her face "Are Lily and Grace coming?!" Daisy, Lily, and Grace had become quite the little friends, they absolutely loved each other and they promised to accept Bella and Carson into their group when they "got big enough"

"Ya they will be here, are you excited to see your friends?" Ezra asked the tiny girl. "I can't wait!" Daisy jumped up and ran out of her room. "Hey Aria what time is everyone coming"? Ezra asked as he walked into their master bedroom. "5:30" He looked at the clock and it read 5:15 "I'll go downstairs and set all the food out" Ezra stated as he turned to leave the room. "Thanks babe"

As Ezra finished laying out all the food there was a knock at the door. "I'll get it!" Daisy exclaimed from the living room. She opened the door to reveal a very stressed looking Toby and Spencer. "Uncle Toby!" "Aunt Spencer!" Spencer laid down the car seat that Carson was in and picked up Daisy. "Hi sweet girl look how big you have gotten!" Daisy wrapped her arms around Spencer's neck. Toby came over and joined them "what's up little miss?" Spencer passed Daisy over to Toby and she gave him a big hug.

Ezra and Aria walked over and greeted their friends after Daisy was done telling them about the tooth she lost a few days ago. "You guys look a little stressed what's going on?" Aria questioned. "Carson was screaming in the car the whole way here so it was a bit of a bumpy ride" Spencer said rolling her eyes. They all glanced over at the baby boy in his car seat as he was now sleeping peacefully. "Of course now he's perfect" Toby chuckled. Daisy walked over and stroked Carson's cheek causing him to smile in his sleep. "Gentle Daisy" Aria reminded her daughter who looked huge next to the 3 month old. "He's so cute I want to squeeze him!" Daisy exclaimed and everyone laughed.

The conversation was interrupted when the doorbell rang. Aria opened it and Lily and Grace stood there. "Hey pretty girls! where are your moms?" The little girls hugged their Auntie Aria and said "they are getting stuff out of the car"

Lily and grace ran over and tackled the rest of their aunts and uncles with hugs and kisses. Everyone was always stunned at how gorgeous the twins were, they looked like little models. "Lily!" "Grace!" Daisy instantly perked up when she saw her best friends and they all fell to floor while hugging with excitement.

Emily and Alison walked through the front door carrying lots of games and activities for the kids. "Hey guys! Long time no see" they said as they went over and hugged their friends. "Your girls are so big and beautiful!" Aria said to Em and Ali. "Are you serious? Look at Daisy! She's stunning" Emily replied back. "Hi auntie Emily" "hi auntie Ali" Daisy said as she ran up to hug them both. "Hey gorgeous! We missed you so much"
