Alex was packing her suitcase as she walked to the huge closet and looked for outfits. Gina strolled into the bedroom , her mouth was chomping on her ever present gum. "So are you ready to go?" she asked Alex.

"I don't know. I mean I am going to need outfits for church and for casual and …" Alex was so confused because so much was being planned for this visit. The main reason was that the Tribbiani clan and Joey's second family could meet her after their impromptu wedding. She could finally put together names with faces… Gellers… Bings. Hannigans…. Joey put his arm around his wife and he calmed her down "Sweetie my friend Rachel works for Ralph Lauren. She can go shopping with you to find some more new clothes." Alex looked up at him and smiled. "You're right . I am just nervous."

Michael entered with his bag thrown over his shoulders. "I'm ready , Mom." Out of his carry on was a science magazine for the plane trip. Gina shook her head. "My son the dork." She sputtered. "Michael , my friend Ross and you are going to get along great." Joey said to his nephew. "What he bores the hell out of every one too?." Gina said as she looked at her son. "Well he is really smart and he has a PHd in Dinosaurs ." Joey tried to explain.

"You mean he is a paleontologist ?" Michael said surprised. "That would be great to be able to discuss things with a fellow scientist. And won't we be going to his house for Passover?"

"Actually it is his parents house in Massapequa. " Joey said.

"I have always wanted to experience Passover. You know the Eucharist came from the traditional Passover seder." Michael started to lecture. "The bread and the wine."

Joey started to look at his sister and then stopped him in mid sentence. "Yeah , he'll get along fine. You are just as boring as him."

Monica stood with the molds over the table as little Erica and Emma were both wearing little aprons. Jack came in and watched them as Monica poured the chocolate into the molds. "Hey that looks like fun. Can I help?" Monica smiled at her little boy. "Sure you can. Put on your little apron." Jack put it around his neck and Monica had him come over and tied it around him. He took a spoon and spread around the colored chocolate into the molds as they made little molds. Monica made chocolate forms for all of the people coming to the dinner on Sunday. She had little forms with a shoe, music notes for the Hannigans, a little computer for her husband, a heart for her mother in law the romance writer, bunnies for the kids, and of course a dinosaur for her brother. Chandler came into the kitchen excited. "Guess what? Joey is coming for Easter." He stopped when he saw his son garbed in an apron with the legend Kiss the Cook. "And are you doing this to make me suffer?" he said as he looked at his little boy.

"There are a lot of famous male chefs. Look at Emeril." Monica said in defense. Anytime he would be questioning what a man could do that would make him look gay, Monica had to remind him that his son would not turn out like his grandpa.

"That 's just great , my son running around going Bam all the time." Chandler said in his own way.

"You are just as bad as Ross was about Ben carrying a Barbie doll. A little boy can help his mommy in the kitchen and not turn gay. Didn't you help your mother?" Monica asked.

"What was I supposed to do ? Hold her panty hose while she took them off to fool around with the pool boy." He said.

"Jack saw his sister and his cousin helping , so he thought it would be fun." Jack came up to him and said. "Yeah daddy , and then I could be nearer to the candy."

"He's becoming more and more like his Uncle Joey." Chandler shook his head. "Oh well, better a human garbage disposal than a dinosaur geek." He laughed at his own joke.

"But Daddy. Dinosaurs are cool. You see…" Jack started to explain in the way he heard his uncle talk. "It's my worst nightmare. My son is taking after Ross Geller and Joey Tribbiani." He said in horror. "You're supposed to be funny." He screamed.

Rain giggled as her father held her and tickled her tummy. Mike loved to change his little sweetie. He was a little bit leery of what his parents would think of the unconventional name that Phoebe had picked, but it was better than being named after a part of the female anatomy which is what she had originally planned. Holding up the little blonde hair girl , he swung her around as she laughed and smiled. Her arms were waving as she moved.

"Good you are playing with your daughter, while I get ready so we can go shopping for the holiday. I have to pick up some wild root, some crystals, and that special tea you like." Phoebe said as she put her notebook in her huge bag of a purse. "And then we have to get some jelly beans, chocolate eggs , and a Passover card." This other stuff was still foreign to her.

Rachel looked in the mirror at her new hair do. She was very pleased with it. She lifted her roots. Good, the gray was covered. Looking for something, she found something unexpected in the back. Taking it out, she discovered a box of Just For Men in a very dark shade of brown. He had taunted her about her vanity , and now she knew he was just as insecure about growing old as her. She returned it to it's hiding place .

"Rach." She heard him call and she ran to the living room. He turned his head to look for their missing daughter. "Where is Emma?" Ross asked. "She is at Mon's , making Easter candy . I had a hair appointment , to touch up my roots." Rachel said matter of factly.

"Really Rach, people know we are not young anymore. They have to realize that we are more than shallow, vain people , but people who have lived through experience." Ross lectured. Rachel was trying to keep a straight face as she thought of him standing in front of a mirror and applying hair dye to his own hair. "I am around young people at work every day and they know that I am a mature man who has a family and knowledge. I don't try to be something that I am not. I am proud of being almost forty."

"And I am proud of my intelligent , yet still sexy husband." Rachel said as she coiled around him and gave him a kiss. Ross couldn't help himself as he strained over the lights to see if he could see any of his own gray along his temples.

"Well this is an exciting week and I got some more good news. Joey and Alex are coming for Easter. Apparently Gina wanted to come back to Queens, and then Joey wanted us all to meet his new wife. I still can't believe it. Joey the lady killer with a wife." Ross exclaimed.

"I think it is sweet. He is a very sweet guy and it was time that he settled down." Rachel cooed.

"Even though he said he wouldn't do it until he was fifty two." Ross added.

"I think he just saw how happy his two best friends were and how we have all became like these little families and stuff, and he knew that is what he wanted all along, not to be forty and going up to girls and saying how you doin? " Rachel said. "He can very charming and romantic.

Ross didn't like that. It was a reminder of their short lived romance that made him realize that Rachel and him were meant to be together.

"But you picked me in the end." Ross gently reminded her. "I think the reason that whole thing didn't work was because I knew and so did he that there would only be one man in my life and that was you." She said sweetly and then gave him a soft kiss on the lips.

Joey and everyone were finally packed and the car picked them up . They were on their way home.
