This has taken me a few days to complete because the families have gotten so big now. Hang in there!
If you have completed the first two generations, you'll need to do that. One is HERE, and Two is HERE.
***If this is the first time you've seen my CAFs, yes, this is the first time I've done one. No, I'm not trying to copy anybody. I thought it would be fun to make the biggest CAF game I could, although I'm sure it's been done before. I try to get each new round out every week, but as I said, this one took me a few days. The first generation was one family, generation two was the families of those kids, and this generation is the families of THOSE kids. I know it's huge, so if you want to stop, it's okay. i understand.***
Child #1's Family
LN: Ivanov, Skilakova, Romanov, Vasiliev, Smirnov
DH: first name / middle name [HERE]
He is a professional biker in Portland, Oregon. He has won many contests, trophies, and races. He literally ran into his now dear wife while training for a huge race. She had just moved there and had her nose in a map when he hit her and knocked her into a puddle of disgusting rain water ruining her map and only way of knowing where she was going. He helped her up, offered her his dry jacket, and feeling horrible, showed her the best sights in Portland and helped her find her way back to her apartment. The next day, he left a bouquet of roses, a new map, and a letter which asked her to dinner at the end. Three years later, he proposed and they married. Two years into marriage they started their small and still growing family.
DW: same as gen. #2 [HERE]
After veterinary school, she moved to Portland, Oregon to surround herself with nature. With the help of her parents, she'd bought and opened her own veterinary clinic there and bought an apartment across the street from it. Two weeks after moving, she had her first day with nothing work- or moving-related to do, so she decided to go sightseeing. She was walking across a presumably empty street with her nose in a map when a man on a bike sped into her, knocking her into a puddle of disgusting rainwater. He apologized over and over, but it was no biggie to her. He offered to show her some of the best sight-seeing spots in town. She accepted because she wanted to get to know him and finally have a friend in town. The next day, he left a bouquet of roses, a new map, and a letter that asked her to dinner. Again, she wanted a friend in town, so she accepted. They hit off and turned into something more. Three years later, they married. Two years after, they started their small and still growing family.

Child #2's Family
LN: Abbott, Armstrong, Hayes, Stafford
DH: fn: a classic name w/ a short, classic nn / mn; James [HERE]
He was driving the tractor around the field when he saw a pick-up truck pull up the dirt pathway at the entrance to the farm. He drove the tractor to the edge of the field to meet whoever this was. What he wasn't expecting was a tall, slim girl with pale green eyes and a long braid of brown hair falling down her back in beat up, denim overalls. She came up to him confidently and said she was interested in buying the land. He smiled. already in love. He didn't think a little thing like her could run a big farm like his...until she pulled out her master's degree in horticulture. He happily gave her the land, but he wasn't letting her go. After years of "stopping by" and "checking in," SHE CALLED HIM OUT ON HIS LOVE AND PROPOSED TO HIM. They had a simple, outdoor wedding, they run the farm together (she handles plants and crops; he handles livestock and dairy), and are now raising three sons and expecting their first daughter in October.
DW: same as gen. #2 [HERE]
After high school, she was accepted in University of Florida (in Gainesville) and earned her master's degree in Horticulture. She worked multiple jobs through high school and college and earned plenty of money to move to Vermont and buy a large farm like she always dreamed. She packed everything in the back of her pick-up truck, covered it tightly with a tarp, and drove herself to Vermont. (Yes, it's possible. It takes about 20 hours along the coast.) She drove into town two days later and stopped at a gas station where she saw a flyer for a large farm on the edge of town ([last name] Farm and Dairy). She went out to talk to the owner who, at first, took her for some little girl who had no idea how to run a big farm. The way he was looking at her, he was playing hard to get, so she would play back. For years, he would stop by and check on her. Finally she decided to give in, knowing they both felt the same. She's the kind of girl who sees what she wants and goes for it, so she did: SHE CALLED HIM OUT AND PROPOSED TO HIM. They had a simple, outdoor wedding, they run the farm together (she handles plants and crops; he handles livestock and dairy), and are now raising three sons and expecting their first daughter in October.
DS: first name / mn: honors father [HERE] {8}
He plans to earn a business degree, inherit the farm from his father, and grow it into a state-wide business. Every morning, his father mentors him in running the farm as he learns things like how to milk cows and plow fields. In his spare time, he plays by the creek with his brothers. When he finds the occasional injured animal, he brings it home where he and his mom phone his aunt in Oregon and care for it together.
DS: first name / mn: honors mom's father [HERE] {5}
He loves helping Daddy drive the tractor, sneak strawberries from Mommy's fruit garden, and watch insects go about their lives in between the rows of corn. During Halloween, he dresses up as a scarecrow and walks through the corn maze and chases people out.
DS; Jameson / middle name [HERE] {3}
He loves playing by the creek and picking daffodils and cattails for Mommy. Sometimes. he helps Daddy drive the tractor (if he can get there before his brother). Anytime his oldest brother brings home a hurt animal, he sits by it so it won't be scared and always makes sure nobody bothers it while it's boo boo heals.

DW: first name / middle name [HERE]
She is an aspiring journalist working as an assistant to the head of a huge California newspaper. She heard of a big breakthrough NASA and begged her boss to let her cover the story. Long story short, one argument later: she writes a good story, and she'll get a column of her own, her story sucks, and her career is finished. While rushing to catch the elevator, she bumps into someone, and all her papers and files, and documents hit the floor. He apologizes profusely and helps her gather her papers. She expected that to be the end of it, but he offered to help her with her story. Suffice to say, she is now a journalist with her own column. They dated for three years before marrying on the beach.
