In the conclusion, George and Annabeth marry, George switches industries to become a music manager, Zoe and Wade marry (in a hasty ceremony owing to Zoe's inhibitions about marriage and having gone into labor—they repeat their vows while racing towards the delivery room to deliver a baby boy), Lemon and... ...Jessie get married, and then Liz and Carl renew their vows before leaving on a world tour. This series ends with the family still together but with several changes: George has lost his job due to the economy, they live with George's parents until they can save enough money to buy a house, and Jessie has moved out of the country to go to college. Zoe gives birth to a daughter she names Annabeth after her mother. She eventually returns to work as a photographer when her child is old enough not to need her daily. Wade starts a rock band with some friends and tours for a few years before deciding to retire from music to take care of his wife and child. He goes back to school to learn how to write songs and hopes to one day open his own recording studio. Lemon becomes a successful songwriter who travels around the world giving concerts in support of her art. She continues to write songs that speak to women about being true to themselves even though this can be difficult during different parts of her life.
