    @mikezumi Thanks for the comments. :) When I was looking at all the 'star' houses none appealed to me. I love that lot and view and hope I can do it justice with renovating it. :) They certainly enjoyed me taking pics for the story. They both almost needed a dunking in the cold lake to cool off. :lol: I love getting feets now! I'm just not quick enough to catch when they have arms coming out the side of the bed.

    Beach fun

    It is finally Sunday and Melee has a gig later today. They decide to have an early breakfast at the diner and enjoy the day at the beach. Back in the car headed to the beach Bryan begins telling ghost stories.

    Jared and Bryan race to get on the wave surf machines that were recently installed at the beach. Alexandra and Melee grab the windsurfers and sail out into the river. Jared notices a seal swimming around his surf station. How cute he thinks. Bryan is learning a few tricks on his board and manages to stay upright most of the time. The girls finish windsurfing and are hungry again. Melee fixes some hotdogs and calls everyone to eat.

    It has been an awesome day enjoying the sun and water and each others company. It will soon be time to leave so Melee can get ready for her show. They have enough time to play on the water slides for a bit before leaving. They laugh and play like the young kids they are.

    They get to the coffee house in plenty of time for Melee to clean up and they all help her set up for the show. She is ready to start and the the silly proprietor sits on her prop! Melee turns, gives him a look and a comment and he gets the message and removes his tush from the prop. She starts her concert and is happy to see more sims in the audience. Alexandra, Bryan and Jared dance to the music enjoying the concert and cheering Melee on. She received a glowing review and a promotion with the performance. She is excited and runs straight to Bryan to talk with him about the promotion.

    @bekkasan Love how you worked Brian's thought bubble into the story :)
    The car and the day's activities reminded me of times gone by - the happier, carefree, days of my youth :)
    Loved the water activity pics :)
    Great performance! Loved seeing everyone dancing <3

    @Mikezumi Thanks for the comments. :) I've been trying to turn the headlines off, but, still forget sometimes. They do make for some entertaining additions to a story sometimes and every once in awhile they can be spot on perfect. They are still 19/20, very young in game. I believe they will turn 20/21 soon.

    @zeegee I watched your video after seeing the new one in your siggy. Comments are on your thread. :) You are an awesome storyteller! Look forward to your comments.

    Random Happenings

    Melee auditions at Micks and she is not experienced enough. Well poo, she thinks! She sings at the karaoke machine and sounds great compared to my other sims that sing at it. The sim dancing is not a pudding sim but she is not very pretty. She was a good dancer though. Melee auditions for the proprietor at the park again and he loves her audition and gives her a gig.

    Melee starts gig number 3, and it is late enough in the day that her friends could be there from the beginning of the set. Which is a good thing because the older lady was the only other one in the park. The older lady was married to a young adult sim and they recently divorced. She got hearts with Bryan, but, I don't think Bryan will go there! Halfway through the show one of the dreaded paparazzi show up and starts taking notes on the performance as well as who is in the audience. Melee closes the show out and gets her first legendary review. She also gets her first recurring gig! She is on her way. Hopefully that will mean less sing-o-grams.

    Jared continues to work hard and had to convince this Ms. King who is a celebrity journalist to appear in a cameo in the upcoming film at the studio. Jared has a fairy high charisma level so he quickly gets to know her well enough that he is able to convince her to be in the film. She does not know it, but, her costar is apparently a Llama! Jared is advancing quickly at the studio and studies scripts that are sent in, offering critiques to the producers. He knows he can write better scripts than some of these.

    Alexandra and Melee enjoy a breakfast outdoors. Melee spoils them with French Toast today and Alexandra is sure she will have to go back and exercise another couple hours to work off the yummy calories. Bryan finally gets up and enjoys some French Toast as well and Melee sits with him and chats while he eats.

    Alexandra and Jared go to the library where they can read their required books for work at a much faster rate than at home. Um, no, they are not reading. The librarian slipped into the lounge and they take advantage of her absence. Bryan thanks Melee for the delicious breakfast and they celebrate in the shower stall. Apparently you cannot woohoo in the library stacks!

    Melee does get a few more sing-o-gram requests and didn't flub them. She hasn't played for tips in awhile, so finds a street corner that she hoped would be a busy one. One fellow watched her for several hours and gave a few tips, while the consignment specialist came out and watched the fellow. Silly sims.

    Jared and Alexandra went to Plasma 101 as Alexandra was asked to do an appearance and buy a drink. It was definitely not a hot spot and they soon found something that entertained the both of them very much. The bouncer wasn't in that room when they went in the elevator, but was when they came out. He gave them a steely eyed look and they decided to go home after that.
    (I use Nraas to disallow woohoo in public as being a bad thing so they won't lose status for it. I actually disallow a lot of those silly celebrity nono's.)

    @bekkasan Well poo about Melee not getting the gig at Micks!
    Congrats on the Legendary review :) Not so much on the old lady wanting Bryan ;)
    One wonders what her role with the llama entails? :o;)
    Ooooh, French Toast! Melee must have very high cooking skills!
    Nope! They are definitely not reading! LOL
    Is that Wogan Hemlock? I love Wogan!
    I don't blame you for changing the celebrity no nos!
    Woohoo! and lots of it in this update :p

    @mikezumi :) Thanks for the comments. You always make me smile. They are making up for lost time!
    Craven had her pretty high in Cooking, Gardening and Logic of all things!
    I do like Wogan and didn't feel the need to change him like I did Beau.
    I put my Beau pic on the other thread if you didn't see it yet. I just couldn't bear his sideburns or clothes any longer.
    I had to go in and make Wogan and whatshername stop having babies though. They have 3 little girls and live in that tiny penthouse! I added two cribs for the toddlers and fixed a room for them with bunks for when they age up. I adjusted my settings so the families can only have 2 now. Nraas wasn't warning me about the no bed situation either. So am peeking in houses in between other stuff. :)

    @bekkasan , Finally a semi quiet moment...

    Starting with Winding Roads:
    Poor Melee! she just wants to sing and everyone is giving her lip about it! At least she was upped a level, I’ve never played a singer though one of my non controlled sims was one for awhile, they do seem fun.
    **Beautiful scenery!
    **Hot tub time, I’ll avert my eyes... ;)
    **I was going to ask why Alexandra and Jared were high 5ing at such a romantic time but it was the dip kiss..now that is romantic! <3
    **I hope they eventually get their property!
    **Oh Alexandra you little minx!! Jared’s eyes are going to pop!
    **Some sweet loving going on there!! Plus you got the feets! <3
    **The seals are adorable till they try to eat you!!
    **Gorgeous beach fun day shots!
    **Alexandra, Jared and Bryan all dancing in sync! Well for a second... ;)
    **Awesome for Melee!! she’s on her way!
    **I hear Llama’s are great actors...alpacas are marginally better though.
    **What is this exercise you speak of...your Sims are nice and slim, eat up gals.. :)
    **Elevator loving...nice!

    Sorry this was so delayed, now that I’m caught up I will not slip behind (I hope). :smiley:

    @bekkasan I will go look for your Beau after I post this.
    I also found that Wogan and his wife always had lots of babies in that tiny penthouse!

    @Charlottesmom Thanks for your comments. :) Glad you got a few minutes to catch up. I was amazed the seal didn't attack one or both of the guys! They were lucky!
    I did a singer a long time back, but, never finished. I think the game glitched and I gave up the save and started something else.

    @Mikezumi They really could have made bigger penthouses. I did find a cheat code at Carl's where you can go in and build in the apartments so I might do that to give them more space. I guess they really didn't think that sims would want families. :confused:

    @bekkasan With EA SP, they wouldn't have had families! We expect more because we are used to modding our games :)

    @mikezumi well, this is true, before I started using the mods the sims didn't procreate like they do now. :)

    LOL at Bryan on his back and the foot sticking out of the hot tub!!!

    Woo hoo! In more ways than one! :heart: How do you get feets?! I saw that in one of Emily's pics too haven't ever noticed it in my game before!

    And one more question, does your real life husband know what your simself is getting up to while he's catnapping?! Cause that last set of pics was HOT.

    @zeegee hehe, husband is a gamer too so he's not worried! He does online games and I forget which one he played but they could get married in it, but it was not to another player, was a character he could control also. She wasn't me that's for sure! hehe We play Skyrim together and we are married in it. He thinks @mikezumi was awesome to let me have Jared/Sam.
    @Charlottesmom taught me about feet pictures. They have to cuddle on the bed, make out on the bed, then woohoo and you will get feet showing during the woohoo. Have camera poised and ready 'cause it is fast and gone practically before you can hit C button. I still have not managed to get the shots of the legs or arms coming out of the side of the bed.
    Glad that I can contribute to another muscle convert. I'm not crazy about the look when guys do those competitions :confounded: , but, normal muscular is smexy!

    How cool to have a husband who loves gaming too. :) And it was very awesome of @Mikezumi to share because hasn't she posted she doesn't share her sims?! I will have to try getting the feets in a video! Now, I think I missed that there was a next page when I posted my last comments so heading back to read it now.

    @Mikezumi Our sims are like real live little peeps so it's understandable to be picky about who gets them!

    Okay, I missed TWO updates!

    First, looove the seals! Didn't know we had seals. And the dancing was really cute.

    Second, yuuum, French toast! And Jared and Alexandra are just adorable.

    Lol @ the green and red outfit on the dancing sim! :D
    Congrats Melee on getting legendary
    No woohoo in the library stacks? That’s just wrong!
    Consignment guy is more than a little creepy!
    Elevator woohoo? So much in this game I haven’t tried, don’t know about yet!

    @ZeeGee Thanks for the comments. :) She is one sad looking sim. If I catch her again she will go in CAS and get a makeover. Elevator woohoo! Definitely worth checking out sometime. :)
