“Summer? The reasons why the cars of our friends are here is because the girls were having a playdate in Nicole’s room and we had promised to show them around our house in case it slipped your mind.” Kyle told her. “What’s this great news that you have for me?” he added.
    “That’s right. I can’t believe that I forgot we had said that. The great news that I have for you involves our wedding reception. Tessa has managed to book a very famous artist for our reception whose music I am a fan of and she said that we were friends to get this artist to agree....

They all followed him into a big room which had a long couch so all of them could fit with Kyle and Summer being in the middle like they were used to. “Kyle? Summer? I think that it’s only fair for us to rehash what the two of you said respectively in our last session in front of your families about how you feel in regards to them. I think it’s only right that Summer goes first. What do you think, Kyle?”
    “I do think that Summer should go first this time around since I went first last time and it’s only fair.”
Summer decided that she would look at her family...

“That sounds like a good idea. You can ask your father once Nicole’s school play has finished. I still can’t believe that our daughter is playing the lead role in Rapunzel.”
    “I will. It’s great that both of our families are here to watch her. I need you to grab the video camera so we can do for her what our parents did with us when we were in her shoes all those years ago.”
    After Kyle grabbed the video camera, they went to grab seats in the front row which was good because there were seats for their families. As always, the Newmans...

After Summer found out that her family had decided to attend the therapy appointments with Kyle and herself, it was Kyle’s turn to find out wha his family had decided and they told him at Nicole’s school play what their decision was. “Kyle? You said that your therapist would like to see both sets of families along with the two of you. It’s time that we, the Abbotts, accept the fact that your loyalty is no longer to just us but Summer and the family the two of you are creating together as well which involves the Newmans since she obviously will be taking our last name once you’re married.”...

“When are the two of you getting married?”
“We are getting married on our original wedding date of March 15th because we think it’s perfect to celebrate our new start on that day. Are all of you OK with that?”
“We are.”
Kyle and Summer decided that they would once again enter court together and hand in hand knowing that they were co-respondents. They had also made sure that their lawyers had their engagement video which they showed to make sure that the judge knew just how in love their clients were. “Your Honor? My client Summer Newman had no idea that Kyle Abbott was still in...

“We’ll get started right away. Once we file the motion, either Michael or I will give you a heads up that it’s in motion. If we need to, we’ll also let you know when we get a response.”
    “Thank you for doing this, guys. I knew that I could trust and count on you.”
    Kyle left the meeting with Christine and Michael feeling good because he knew that he had not only two of Genoa City’s top lawyers but also two of Wisconsin’s top lawyers on his case. He had no idea that after their meeting, his lawyers had gotten straight to work and...

While Victoria, Nick, Adam, and Abby were plotting as to the gifts to hand over to Victor for the 50th Anniversary gala, Kyle and Summer had made their own plans for the gala-they were going to use the event to mark their official coming out as a family for the first time with their beloved daughter. They had decided to wear matching outfits so Summer and Nicole would be wearing the same color dress while Kyle would be wearing a tuxedo with the same color tie. “Nicole? You and I are going to do my favorite hobby which is shopping and we need dresses to wear to this party. I’m going to order...

“I’d love to be a flower girl since I haven’t been one before. What is our last name?”
    “Mommy’s last name is Newman right now but ours is Abbott since we gave you my last name. Once we get married, Mommy will change hers to match ours. My grandmother and both of Mommy’s grandparents are still alive so your great-grandparents are living.”
    As Kyle was talking to Nicole and telling her about their families which were hers as well, Summer forgot that she still had her cellphone on which ended up ringing. “Hello? I’m in New York with...

“Why didn’t you tell us, especially me what you were going to do for them?” Nick asked.
    “Your siblings and especially you Nicholas would have tried to talk me out of it. You were with me before Summer was born when I went and saw your grandfather on his deathbed and had that dreadful conversation where I said that I basically turned myself from nothing into the man I am today as well as the husband, father, and patriarch that I have become. I may not have forgiven him when you were with me but there was one person I was able to forgive before it was too late and...

“What did you do for Summer’s engagement ring? I don’t think you have shown me the ring.”
    “I asked Lauren for the number of a jewelry designer that she uses for Fenmores and she gladly gave me the number when I asked. I designed Summer’s engagement ring myself because I remembered all the details that she had told me as she was telling me about her dream proposal that I had given her. Summer has no idea that I went a little step further and had them engrave an inscription.”
    “What is the inscription?”
    “Let...

After Kyle and Summer left, all of the occupants in the room turned to Faith since she had the video of their engagement. Faith played the video of the engagement and the families instantly knew that this mess needed to stop for not only Nicole’s sake but also Kyle and Summer’s sake. “Kyle and Summer also showed me photographs of Nicole that they would receive. They have also recently reconnected with Kyle’s brother who lives on the other side of the world. Kyle invited him to their wedding. The reason why they never told anyone was because they knew how a lot of people here felt about...

By the time all four couples had done their bedtime routines with their children and had freshened up, it was now 7:00 and the reservations were at 7:30. While the men had gotten ready earlier, the women were busy putting on the finishing touches which were their cosmetic products and the cosmetic products that they all were wearing happened to be none other than Jabot. They had finished getting ready and headed down the stairs to meet their men who immediately grabbed their hands to meet the car that was taking them to the restaurant. “When we get to Luciano’s, we’ll start off by ordering...

“We would love to come with you and see your family’s estate since we’ll be staying at the estate of Kyle’s family.”
    “Is your closet at your family’s estate anything like your closet at your home with Kyle?”
    “They’re actually the same size, although the closet at my family’s estate only has my clothes while the closet at our house has room for both my clothes and Kyle’s clothes. I need to do a little bit of spring cleaning in regards to that closet like I did with my closet at our house.”
    While Summer...

“What were you thinking about just now, Snowflake? You looked like you were a mile away.”
    “I was just remembering when we had called Dr. Chambers so they could have Nicole be their patient just like I was.”
    Both Kyle and Summer knew that they were going to enjoy their trip to Italy with their friends and show them their favorite things to do whenever they were there. “Kyle? I was thinking that we could go ahead and combine our bank accounts because it will be easier for us since we’re parents as well. We can do that after we get back...

“How do you know Summer, Natalie?” Tessa asked.
    “Summer and I met when I was designing a software program for her family’s company Newman Enterprises. We stayed close and I was there during the times when she was going through a rough patch with Kyle where he was neglecting her and she had met Luca.” Natalie answered.
    “I take it that you’ve never officially met him.”
    “No, I haven’t had the pleasure yet. How did you meet Summer, Tessa?”
    “Summer and I met because I used to date...

Once the family had changed into their swim clothes, they then went downstairs to start greeting all of their guests that they had invited. As the guests started to arrive, it was starting to dawn on them that these would be the same people who had been invited to their wedding in a few months. It was nice for them to see just how many people actually cared about them and supported them as a couple and a family. Being able to show off their home and their daughter was just an added bonus for them. Nicole made the choice that she would ask whichever one of her parents she saw first about going...

Kyle and Summer then decided that they would head to the restaurant at the Grand Phoenix where they could get some lunch and discuss more details about their upcoming party. She decided that she would talk to Jack and Kyle about a possible partnership because she had a connection in the fashion industry that they could work with. She decided that she would wait and bring it up the next time that they were with Jack. Little did Summer know that time would be when they got back to work.
    Once they entered the elevators and back to the levels where the offices were, they...

Kyle and Summer knew that they needed to get home to get ready for their party which meant meeting the caterers to set up around their pool. They wanted to make sure that they had everything ready ahead of time so they could just enjoy the party. Summer also knew that her trip to New York for the measurements of her wedding dress was just around the corner. She had arranged for the trip to happen after their party. Kyle had also made arrangements for when their daughter and he would join her plus he had made reservations at a pasta restaurant in Dumbo for the three of them to eat at while they...
