Florence's younger sister is getting married - finally, in the eyes of their parents - to her high school sweetheart, who she's been dating for seven years. Helen has always been popular so her and Robert's wedding was rather large, but it was a lot of fun for everyone involved.The pair rented Dundurn Castle for the day and had the ceremony and reception there, inviting everyone they knew who might be even remotely interested.Year Two
DD - Beatrix Pascuala (13)
Hair - Black, wavy
Eyes - BlueFlorence gave birth to their first child this year. They believe that Declan's the Father, but don't really care either way.Beatrix is a rather colicky baby, and Florence is thinking of switching to the lactose-free formula, because her parents told her she was colicky until they did the same.Year Three
The young family travelled to Turkey this year to do some research for Declan's new book.Year Four
AD - Alexis Amara (19) [Ethiopia]

DD - Hannah Jane (10)
Hair - Red, curly
Eyes - BlueFlorence gave birth again. Hannah has quite the shock of red hair and very bright blue eyes. She's a lot quieter than her sister was, but when she wants to be noticed she has a very loud scream.Year Six
Helen and Robert had a set of triplets! The young couple are rather overwhelmed, and very glad that they waited a few years to have kids as they don't think they could have managed triplets in their old apartment.Year Seven
The Murphy's travelled to China for a new book Declan's writing.Year Eight
AS - Lucas Pavel (12) [Russia]

DD - Katina Mariam (4)
Hair - Red, straight
Eyes - BlueThe Murphy's have another girl! Katina's a lot more content to simply watch her family and listen to Lucas read to her, and she rarely cries.Year Twelve
The family moved into a bigger house this summer. The kids all have their own rooms now, and Hugo has his own study with a bed, for when he gets depressed and doesn't want anyone touching him.Year Thirteen
DS - Zachary Andrew (2)
Hair - Brown, wavy
Eyes - GreenZachary was completely unexpected - they had been using protection - and, considering their run of girls, he was a bit of a double surprise. Lucas is a bit upset at no longer being the only son, but they hope he'll grow out of that.Year Fourteen
Hugo's Aunt passed away recently and left the Murphy's all of her savings. She was the only one in his family who approved of his decision to marry Declan and Florence and has always been supportive of them, visiting frequently and offering to take care of the children when she was younger, if they needed it.They've divided the money and put it in various trust funds for the kids.Year Fifteen
DD - Victoria Ace (nb)
Hair - Brown, wavy
Eyes - HazelThe Murphy's have what, they hope, is their last child. They've named her Victoria, after Hugo's Aunt, and Ace, after the Doctor's companion.Victoria is the chubbiest of all her siblings and is generally happy-go-lucky.
Hugo and Declan Murphy, and Florence Trask - Alexis, Beatrix, Lucas, Hannah, Melanie, Katina, Zachary and Victoria Murphy.
