Update 3.7

 Hunter and Kimberlee share a kiss under the falling snow after their wedding.

 Hunter's wolfing was still rather unpredictable and seems to be correlated to various moods.  Feeling pretty ecstatically in love and being married, Hunter wolfed-out shortly after the ceremony.

 Hunter and Kimberlee had a staycation honeymoon.  With Avery in the care of his grandparents the newlyweds enjoyed their hot tub.

 Thoroughly exhausted from wedding night activities, Hunter and Kimberly snuggled in for good night sleep (the first in a long time considering they have an infant).

 Before they knew it Avery was celebrating his toddler birthday.

 Hunter invited over Ripley and his family.  While Itzel was off playing peek-a-boo with Avery, the adults conversed around the kitchen table.

 As winter settled upon Moonlight Falls, the townsfolk began festivities for Snowflake Day.  Hunter held the family gift giving party at his house.

 Unfortunately, tragedy struck this Snowflake day.  Kimberlee was on call and in the middle a unwrapping presents her pager went off for large structure fire.  Trying to rescue one of the persons caught in the fire, they both fell victim to the flames.  Ayden Van Gould, the oldest vampire in Moonlight Falls, also perished in the fire.  The fire inspector ruled the fire arson.

 Hunter was heartbroken over the loss of his beautiful wife.

 He snuggled Avery as much as he could.  He pitied that Avery would not grow up with his mother and felt Avery was his last connection to his wife.

 Hunter did not cope with his grief well.  At one point he became so consumed with despair that he almost froze to death outside in the snow.  His saving grace, was that it was close to spring-time and once the sun came up the temperature warmed.  He was also pretty lucky that he thawed with enough time to flee from the rays of the sun. (I seriously thought he was going to freeze to death only to turn around and burn to a crisp.)

 Life continued in the Brown household and the two quietly celebrated Avery's birthday.

 Hunter bought an easel for Avery.  Avery seemed happiest with a paintbrush in his hand.

 Of course, Hunter also had to remind Avery to do homework or it wouldn't get done.  He found it was easiest to sit with him until it was done.

 During a little down time Hunter surprised Avery with a trip to Al-Simhara.

 They visited many places.  Hunter figured that with Avery's artistic talent that he would also enjoy taking photos with a camera of his own.  Hunter gave Avery his very own camera.

 They camped in the desert.

 And visited the pyramids at night, which was quite the sight to see.

 Avery met a local girl his age and quickly made friends.  Soon he was off on his own and not interested in following Hunter around.

By the end of the vacation, Avery was tired of the outdoors and stayed at the camp as much as he could.  Hunter decided to go tomb exploring for the last adventure during this vacation.

Update 3.6

Summer turned to Autumn and Hunter and Kimberlee's relationship was still going strong.  Hunter was falling in love.  They enjoyed dates at the Festival and Hunter asked Kimberlee to move in with him.

The day of the Autumnal Blue Moon was upon them and Hunter's amorous intentions were extremely amplified.  He felt an extreme pull to mate with his girlfriend.

Luckily for Hunter, Kimberlee was agreeable to having a baby and they spent more of their day in bed.

Viola was hope that this fertile period would result for a baby for her as well, as Argus would not around for the next Autumnal Blue Moon, but a call from the lab did not result in the answer she was hoping for.

Hunter bought a dozen roses for Kimberlee.  She confirmed that she was pregnant.

On Spooky Day Ripley and Shanda brought Itzel over to trick-or-treat in a cute little gnome costume.

Hunter got to carving a jack-o-lantern for the front porch.

Hunter and Kimberlee enjoyed working out with each other.  Hunter was determined to master the martial arts and Kimberlee needed to keep in shape for her job.

Enough time had passed and Kimberlee began announcing her pregnancy.  The vampires did not have a baby boom this time around, though a couple were expecting.  Kailey and Gator were also expecting.

Argus delivered the news that Hunter and Kimberlee were expect a boy!

Hunter was in line for a promotion at work and worked into the early hours to meet the papers deadline with some reviews he had written up.

In early winter Hunter and Kimberlee bought their own house; a cute little three bedroom so they could use the third for a home gym.

As a firefighter Kimberlee went on maternity leave early.  She couldn't be rushing into burning building while pregnant.  Kimberlee spent her time fixing up the home, setting up the baby furniture, and feeding her cravings (which thankfully did not include plasma juice).

Hunter got the call in the editor's office that Kimberlee had gone into labor and he rushed to the hospital.

Argus was just leaving work when he saw Kimberlee walking up to the hospital so he accompanied her inside and waited with her until Hunter arrived.

Kimberlee gave birth to a beautiful little vampire boy.  They named him Avery.

Hunter was head over heels for his son and enjoyed working from home to take care of Avery while Kimberlee went back to work.

Exhilarated from family life and being completely in love with Kimberlee, Hunter bought a ring and asked Kimberlee to marry him.

Kimberlee said yes and threw herself into Hunter's arms.

On a cold and snowy night Hunter and Kimberlee gathered family and close friends and exchanged vows at the Winter Festival.

Update 3.5

Ripley brought his laboring wife to the hospital.

The Talon's welcomed their new addition; a daughter named Itzel.

Viola wanted more children of her own and could hardly believe that her children were giving her grandchildren.  Let the spoiling begin.

Hunter met with Kimberly at the park.  He had hoped that her current relationship was ending and that she would consider him as an option.  Hunter pulled her over to the Love Tester Machine and they a much better answer this time around.

Hunter's efforts were to little avail.  As he snagged a prize for Kimberly she dropped the bombshell that she has gotten engaged.

Way to go vampire duo; setting the kitchen on fire.  Two firefighters wouldn't have had to show up if you would have reported at the start rather than panicking.

Hunter decided to escape Moonlight falls for a while and tend his broken heart in Shang Simla.

Hunter enjoyed the beautiful late summer weather and many bicycle tours of the town.

Hunter also enrolled at the martial arts academy and quickly gained rank in the skill.

Hunter bought himself a practice dummy and had it shipped home where he continued his studies.

Hunter was in the middle of one of his workouts when he got a call from Kimberly.  She was at a bar and she was upset.  When he got there she was obviously drunk.  Hunter was able to coax some nonsense sentences out of her but understood the gist of a fight with her fiance.  Kimberly stumbled off the barstool and Hunter scooped her up to take her back to her house.

The fire in the kitchen had destroy much but they fixed.  However, when everything was in tiptop shape Viola and Argus decided to sell the house for something with less space.  Ripley and Shanda bought their own house.

Argus and Viola settled on an old plantation house for their home and Hunter moved in with them for the time being.

Ripley and Shanda held a nighttime pool party at their new home.

Argus and Hunter chat about the new house and Hunter's plans for the future (there aren't any at this point).

Just as Hunter wasn't looking, life threw someone new and interesting his way.  Hunter bumped into Kimberlee, the firefighter who responded to their kitchen fire, outside of the grocery store and struck up a conversation.  (Honest to god, her name is Kimberlee.  Hunter has a problem.)

While having an innocent conversation in the rain poor Hunter was struck by 40,000 volts of lightning.

That had to hurt, but he got a date out of the deal.

Later in the week Hunter picked Kimberlee up from the fire station and took her to the park for a picnic and some star watching.

The date was going really well and Kimberlee was interested in come back to the house for some hot tubbing.
