Happy New Year all! To celebrate the end of a decade, we have these wonderful snapshots, which you shall receive about one a day! It's all the moments you might have wanted to see but couldn't be fit into the stories. Visits to Addison, friends meeting family, babys' firsts, and their meeting with Michael, it's all here! The timing is approximate, we planned this out after writing Heart Trouble, so we fit things in as best we could.

Liam's first MLB game - 2035 - 23/28 years old
"Well Josh this is a big day for the Boston Red Sox." Joe Buck said to his co announcer, former Red Sox Josh Beckett.
"Right you are Joe." Josh said from high atop their pace over Fenway Park. "Tonight 23 year old Southpaw out of Yale, Liam Robbins-Torres, is making his first MLB start."
Arizona, Callie, Carter, Michael, Ryleigh, Erin, Jamie their kids, Andy, Kate and William; Aria, Jesse and their kids Jesse, Elisa, Jade, Nina, Rosa, Carlos Juan; Matt, Mac and their kids Charles, Matthew and Lea; Mark, Lexie, Lauren who was sporting a baby bump were all in the field box, right next to the dugout.
"I can't believe he's making his first MLB start!" Carter cheered as the Red Sox took the field.
"It's awesome." Michael said from beside his baby sister.
Callie and Arizona both had tears in their eyes as they looked at their little boy on the mound.
"He looks good in that uniform." Callie whispered to her wife.
"Yeah he does." Arizona replayed.
"Today is always the first game for the new Red Sox catcher – Liam Robbins-Torres's brother-in-law of all things – Josh Hall." Joe announced.
"It's a good day for that family." Josh laughed softly.
Josh trotted up to Liam right before the game started. "Ready to do this bro?"
"Let's roll." Liam flushed a smile toward his family as Josh trotted back to the plate. He turned and fired his first major league pitch: a strike.
