Following The Fords - Legacy Story

It’s the final day of the year here in Willow Creek and we join Mila in the kitchen preparing a fruit salad for breakfast

The couple sit down to eat and discuss their daily plans. Zach has his first day as a pastry chef but should be home by 5pm, in plenty of time to get ready and head over to Summer’s New Year’s party.

Mila decides on an outfit for the day

And the couple decide to spend their morning doing some quiet reading. Zach reads one of his new cookbooks for inspiration, while Mila reads “reel her in”, a gift from Liberty.

The sun is shining outside and the last of the winter snow is slowly melting away, with just patches left. Zach heads off to work

And Mila spends a few hours working on her new assignment

Time certainly flies while you’re in the zone, as before she knows it Mila hears Zach returning home!

But he’s not in a good mood! Turns out today was incredibly stressful, as the rest of the pastry chefs were behind on New Year’s orders and he had to pick up the slack! Mila sympathises with her husband and offers him a massage to help him relax

And a kiss always helps, too!

With Zach feeling a little better, the couple get dressed for their party – looking good, Mila!

Then they head across the street to Summer and Rafael’s house – Travis has moved out, and Summer has kept their house the trio of friends shared.

Outside the bonfire is roaring

And Zach gives Rafael a hand grilling some ribs for everyone, showing off a little!

After a few hours of enjoying the bonfire and partying, it’s time to head inside to watch the countdown

As they start to die down, Mila, Summer and Liberty head inside to warm up and share their resolutions for the new year. Mila starts…

As they know, Zach and Mila have been trying for a baby. She reflects on the many negative tests she’s taken…

And on the test, she took last night, which revealed a very faint line…
