I mean, I enjoyed the Rory/Amy love and also the acknowledgement of their daughter and son-in-law, but there were some distinct problems.
Namely, that neither the Doctor nor River realized that the only fixed thing at the end was that Rory and Amy ended up buried together in that graveyard (or heck, that their HEADSTONES ended up in that graveyard). That there was ABSOLUTELY NO REASON they couldn't visit in the interim, as long as they passed their later years in a manner that lead to that.
(the Doctor has a giant blind spot in this category; it is similiar to his issues in Water of Mars. HAVE SOME CREATIVITY MAN).
Therefore, I reject Moffat's canon and introduce my own, where Amy and Rory Pond reunite with the Doctor and continue travelling with him, have Mycroft and Sherlock either by futue infertility treatments and/or adoption, and have many exciting family Christmas dinners.
(we are also not going to dwell overmuch on on the "oh look we're saved/no we're not Carrie's hand is reaching up from the grave"
