Year 1: The couple goes to Chaz's family reunion in Atlanta, Georgia. A bit awkward for both of them, as members of Chaz's extended family did not know he was gay.

Year 3: Chaz starts taking photos. He has a lot of fun taking pictures of things around their house and even takes a fairly good portrait of Gio. The couple has known since they got together that they want to adopt, and they are matched with a set of toddler girl/boy twins this year. They are very pleased to add Beatrice Rose and Miles Zachary to their family. They decide to use Gio's last name for the children.
