    Although the party was still going, I wanted to check on Niall as he is several days over the full life bar. The crazy drink was still affecting him because I found him working out on the barre in his formal wear!

    Rory and Marisa hadn't moved from the dining area.
    42535289774_9cf9016fee_o.jpg
    When I saw "Put Taryn down" in Lachie's queue I zoomed back to the party. I am pretty sure the only reason he would have been doing that was to steal candy from her! :# Fortunately another party goer was in his queue!

    Carson and Lydia were playing catch in the backyard :)
    43204730032_cdc9374d6a_o.jpg
    Candice Lothario was the sim in Lachie's queue earlier but I cancelled the action so that Lachie could introduce himself properly because she couldn't get to him because of Samuel and Alvin being in the doorway.
    29383425748_9c4a2c1938_o.jpg
    I checked back home and found Alpin playing the drums :)
    43204729672_917e98bac9_o.jpg
    Rory and Marisa finally made it out of the kitchen ;)
    43204729402_6a3514c74c_o.jpg
    It was getting late so I sent everyone home. Lydia and Maggie got to know each other better and Carson played on a spring rider :)
    43204729182_4bf4c906ac_o.jpg
    Lachie and Alvin watched the stars before going to bed :)
    43204729002_34705ae431_o.jpg
    Niall is still with us and I had him call Kenna before going to bed to fill his social bar :)

    Niall rolled a wish to fish before 6am. He catches a lot of sharks! Because he was fishing without bait it was only very nice quality.
    43244385972_d2aea2ba21_o.jpg
    The family had waffles for breakfast. I was ignoring most of their waking wishes this morning because the kids wouldn't be going to school ;)
    42575876554_07ba730a05_o.jpg
    There was a bottleneck at the door as the family rushed to get into Niall's car :p
    42575876044_4307242e12_o.jpg
    It's a two-seater but somehow all 9 of them got in ;)
    43244383832_96a14c6b91_o.jpg
    When the family arrived in Monte Vista there was another bottleneck as they all tried to go inside. I was missing the pretty lighting in Monte Vista. This is the same house I used for another save with Jordan and Pepe and where my SS had her first romance as an elder :)
    42575875514_ff680ab49d_o.jpg
    41484480050_0d83cda73b_o.jpg
    Lachie rolled a wish to prepare waffles after breakfast. I locked it in because I was going to hold him to it when they arrived in Monte Vista ;)
    42575875024_28fcfc6bd7_o.jpg
    While he family were trying to get inside, I bought lots of goodies for them, including the culinary career fridge, a bar, a stereo and new beds for everyone.
    41484479280_3621b0543e_o.jpg
    Niall is making very high quality drinks now and I plan on making the most of it!
    42575874354_b4fb6a15f2_o.jpg
    I found Carson doing homework. He hadn't started school yet but if he wants to do it, who am I to stop him?
    43294003411_f1b81d7260_o.jpg
    Because their motives had taken a hit because of traveling, they all rolled wishes for a hot tub. Oh, and I also got a treehouse for the kids (that's my story, anyway!) ;)
    42575874004_b8d51fef32_o.jpg
    Of course they all rolled wishes to go hot tubbing as soon as I bought it!
    41484477400_9f89d4f3d9_o.jpg
    Although Lachie and Alvin also had hot tub wishes they looked happy doing what they were doing so I let them finish before having them join the others :)
    42575873544_9b5e3e515f_o.jpg
    There were lots of wishes to cuddle and makeout in the hot tub but I cancelled each and every one. Niall doesn't need to be seeing that!
    41484476830_1e09ceb5d8_o.jpg
    All of the kids rolled wishes to play in the new treehouse. Lydia and Maggie were the first to do so.
    41484475920_9da2ba2faa_o.jpg
    Carson and Alpin found the bookcase! They are sooooo Lachie's sons! :D

    The girls looked like they were having fun but I had to get them out so the boys could have a turn before the family went out.
    28425006287_c8a4d6ae82_o.jpg
    Lydia had homework too! I wish I knew what causes some kids to get it before they start school while others don't.
    41484474910_0c274ac50c_o.jpg
    I forgot to take pics of the boys playing in the treehouse :( Lachie prepared a cheesy pizza for that night's dinner :)
    28425005667_b66abe7807_o.jpg
    41484474160_425f62c2ed_o.jpg
    It was only great quality but I was happy to see the family got good moodlets when it was made and another when they ate it :)
    28425005017_781ecbab77_o.jpg
    I sent the family to The Sunbather's Retreat. Carson made a beeline for the water as soon as they arrived!
    41484473430_f30b6e4b36_o.jpg
    28425004327_3c94f953ff_o.jpg
    I put a professional bar on the lot but had Niall prepare some drinks before the Mixologist arrived.
    41484472680_9dc3fc60ce_o.jpg
    Alvin is really good with the kids and I was happy to see him hugging Lydia :)
    28425003647_4e2da25ab8_o.jpg
    I didn't realize there was a lovely view of the bridge from the lot until I lined up a pic of Maggie and Rory :)
    41484471900_c4f19801a4_o.jpg
    Silly Marisa played chess on the computer instead of enjoying the beach!
    41484471510_33be28733e_o.jpg
    Lachie and Alvin had fishing wishes as did Alpin. Only Lachie and Alvin got to fish because I forgot to send Alpin :(
    41484471230_2f38be16aa_o.jpg
    I was happy to see that Marisa had finally put away her laptop!
    41484470900_0c53f6c5be_o.jpg
    Alpin, Maggie and Lydia also went for a swim. I actually wish that swimming wasn't autonomous for kids because I always worry about them.
    41484470500_5d7d6e12fc_o.jpg
    Lachie caught his first blowfish :)
    41484470290_f243233584_o.jpg
    Niall was the first to meet a local, Vanna Seng :)
    41484469960_150802d57d_o.jpg
    She didn't mind his boasting but, from memory, there are lots of family oriented sims in Monte Vista :)

    I couldn't see Carson and got really worried when I saw him so far from the Retreat. I told him to come to shore.
    41484469440_1da32930c3_o.jpg
    Lydia didn't stay in the water for long and came back to ask her mother for a game of catch.
    41484469120_e9f3692c74_o.jpg
    At some point, Rory also went for a swim but I wasn't worried about him because he has high athletic skill.
    28424999967_5a9af175aa_o.jpg
    Before the family arrived, I added a few playground items for them. They found them when they came out of the water :) I was very happy to see Alpin pushing Maggie on the swing :)
    42575861814_b2df176c2a_o.jpg
    I also placed a water slide and everyone rolled wishes to use it. They didn't all get their wish because I didn't want them there all day.
    28424999167_4d1d831be3_o.jpg
    42575860894_d0382a95be_o.jpg
    28424998107_5a86d35004_o.jpg
    Although I put a larger table in the kitchen, there wasn't enough room to place a small table on the end so Alpin ate by himself in the corner.
    42575860114_fdf18dde0b_o.jpg
    Lachie and Alvin watched the door after dinner :p
    28424997437_20f6d1970b_o.jpg
    The parents kept rolling wishes to buy kiddie toys. I didn't buy the toy oven because I don't want the kids rolling wishes to use the bakers stand but I got them a dollhouse and a costume chest.
    28424997057_cc8daf2eb6_o.jpg
    I wasn't surprised to find Niall in the hot tub with a drink :)
    41484466200_80fc2d02d2_o.jpg
    LOL Rory and Marisa were watching another door! :D
    28424996177_b96bb550a1_o.jpg
    Alpin: "What are they doing, dad?"
    41484465680_b33fa6c269_o.jpg
    A minute later I heard another squeal and saw that Marisa was taking her turn ;)
    28424995377_3e0b6bb06d_o.jpg
    Rory tried to dance but Marisa appeared in his queue to continue their flirt fest :)
    41484464920_4f6086ae47_o.jpg
    My little princesses played catch :)
    28424994377_78c59a9124_o.jpg
    I found Lachie playing catch with Alpin. They must have walked all the way around the house to get here! I sent the family to bed a little later.

    The family had the waffles that Lachie prepared when they arrived. Lachie got to sit in the naughty corner this time ;)
    42595881024_5ff48df443_o.jpg
    There were many wishes to play catch so I indulged some of them before the family headed out and knew the others would take care of their own wishes during the day. Give a sim a ball and you can bet they will play catch whenever they can!
    43313876851_f4b0d423a5_o.jpg
    28444449397_f59837acd6_o.jpg
    I had Marisa prepare some pancakes for the next morning. Alvin and Alpin stayed in the kitchen for a chat but I think they, too, eventually ended up playing catch :D
    42595879014_8d4cb43d3b_o.jpg
    It's nice that Niall isn't forgotten because he is old :) Lydia had a wish to play catch with her uncle :)
    28444448807_2b8da35980_o.jpg
    Although she may have regretted that wish ;)
    43313874621_c8fd96ba35_o.jpg
    I sent the family to the Mucho Expresso Café. Lachie must have missed Alvin while they were playing catch with the kids ;)
    42595877294_e61521f292_o.jpg
    Lydia went straight to the sand pit. I was surprised that Maggie didn't because she would spend hours in it at home.
    43313873601_7fe225e805_o.jpg
    I guess Maggie would rather play catch ;)
    43313873011_0c692f5aa2_o.jpg
    They all had wishes to meet new people so I sent Lachie inside to introduce himself to the barista.
    42595875904_5e2fccff32_o.jpg
    Then I had him order a coffee :)
    43313872241_8dd21763ba_o.jpg
    "This coffee better be good!"
    42595875234_e02ebf2376_o.jpg
    Oops! Their SP settings mustn't have carried over to Monte Vista! I can assure you they are fixed now!
    28444447027_5899d6c87c_o.jpg
    Rory must have asked Marisa for a game of catch because they are using his ball!
    43313870681_6d3feeed3d_o.jpg
    Both Alvin and Lachie rolled wishes to take a photo with a friend after introducing themselves to the barista.

    After I fixed everyone's SP settings and Niall found he could no longer flirt with Alvin, he went to play with the kids instead.
    42595871454_d97f753444_o.jpg
    I was happy to see Alpin was playing his violin :) I remembered that Carson was also a virtuoso so bought one for him as well :)
    29443558548_f68a2b1837_o.jpg
    I found Niall and Maggie playing catch ouside the cafe's fence.
    42595870324_0a64b02e27_o.jpg
    When I saw Rory trying to go home I had him serve some tea instead.
    29443558218_878556fe12_o.jpg
    Lachie and Alvin joined them a little later :)
    42595869374_63cfa59c6c_o.jpg
    I had placed the tea tables when the family first arrived in Monte Vista. It was such a pretty spot and the tables and chairs that were there before would probably never be used.
    29443557938_55bd86f1a9_o.jpg
    Alpin didn't get to play his violin for long because Maggie wanted to play catch.
    42595868444_6900ef2774_o.jpg
    Rory and Niall went off to play catch after tea.
    29443557488_73baab16db_o.jpg
    Lachie didn't want to play catch, preferring to continue their earlier flirting session :) I'm glad he didn't witness Alvin and Niall's earlier indiscretion!
    42409667965_17bfdf8634_o.jpg
    A couple of the kids tried to go home so I sent the family to the Seafood Hideaway Fishing Park
    41503997920_d8eba78c7a_o.jpg
    Although I directed the kids to fish, Lachie, Alvin and Niall fished autonomously.
    41503997020_e778c3f567_o.jpg
    42409666345_dd8d9b37c5_o.jpg
    Niall caught his first blowfish :)
    29443555418_8207ccc427_o.jpg
    I don't know how Lachie could see what he was doing! :D

    When it was getting close to dinner time I sent the family home. I had Lachie prepare some drinks. Rory chose to dance :)
    29443554718_bebab66d54_o.jpg
    When Marisa made the pancakes in the morning, she rolled a wish to prepare a great meal ... granted! :D
    29443554388_414f05351f_o.jpg
    Carson rolled a wish to catch a bug :)
    29443554078_dce2b12dde_o.jpg
    He missed but there were two side by side spawners
    29443553758_9b4f719c78_o.jpg
    And he caught one on his second try :)
    29443553338_abc9374efc_o.jpg
    I was only gone a few sim minutes while Carson caught the butterfly but when I got back I found the boys in the hot tub!
    29443553128_d837a7980b_o.jpg
    Lydia had a wish to level up in painting :)
    29443552838_247ed0427d_o.jpg
    Maggie and Alpin played catch.
    29443552628_858aa0fc35_o.jpg
    When Carson got home he found his violin! :)
    29443552348_9c7f91dfaa_o.jpg
    I saw a ghost crossing the street. Made me feel right at home ;)
    29443552148_fa9704fd0f_o.jpg
    When Marisa finished cooking she joined the boys :p
    29443551858_8377f928b4_o.jpg
    Niall and Alvin got the naughty corner this time ;)
    29443551828_6c3454d116_o.jpg
    While Rory was clearing the dishes, Marisa found an empty easel.
    41503990870_156efc2e16_o.jpg
    I found the boys in the living room :)
    29443551018_3675dc4c18_o.jpg
    There were many games of catch and some star watching before the family went to bed :)
    41503989130_17b5b8fc96_o.jpg
    41503988660_0d6ab87b6d_o.jpg
    Niall wasn't left on his own. He had a couple of games of catch and a long chat with Carson :)

    While the family were eating I discovered that pancakes were Lydia's favourite food! :) Of course I would have known this from when I gave her a birthday makeover but I had forgotten. Lachie and Rory got the naughty corner this time ;)
    29468242438_f714dce05d_o.jpg
    Niall tried to clear the dishes but others were still eating so I cancelled it. He took the opportunity to sneak out for a drink ;)
    28469235737_8ebf70bc39_o.jpg
    Maggie had a wish to play tag with Lydia :)
    29468242028_dae3e8fb2e_o.jpg
    Lachie's waking wish was to play a game with Alpin :)
    28469235347_8d9e556e18_o.jpg
    Rory's waking wish was to prepare a meal so I took advantage of that to have him restock the fridge with pancakes :p
    29468241688_9b7727daee_o.jpg
    Alvin and Marisa had wishes to level up in logic. I got them started towards their wish but it will take some time.
    28469235187_ab216ab6ca_o.jpg
    When I checked on Niall he had moved on to romantic drinks :D
    42620913644_7dc9936383_o.jpg
    Carson had wishes to talk to and play a game with Lachie. I noticed this look on Lachie's face as he was heading to the backyard for a game of catch and couldn't not take a pic! :D
    28469234867_f2bcec7d27_o.jpg
    They don't hold back at all for the kids :#
    42620912534_2f97aa1e98_o.jpg
    28469234447_87b7de61b7_o.jpg
    42620911234_2446f3812d_o.jpg
    When I looked up I saw Niall dancing :) At least he stopped drinking! :D
    28469233717_a5f7c48672_o.jpg
    I sent the kids to the Etruscan Park because I saw Camillo and Carlo Mancini there and the kids all had wishes to meet new people.
    42620909654_3a8b51df55_o.jpg
    28469233337_afc28a72a7_o.jpg
    Lydia lost interest after her introduction and asked Alpin for a game of catch :D

  • MikezumiMikezumi Posts: 49,697 Member
    Since there were no kids to interrupt for games of catch the grown ups had a little fun ;)
    41528849970_9d701b8811_o.jpg
    I checked back on the kids and Maggie and Carson were playing catch as well :)
    42620907174_2441fc162b_o.jpg
    I felt sorry for Niall dancing on his own so I had him join the kids. He also had a wish to meet someone new and when he saw Carlo, he rolled a wish to give him a friendly introduction.
    41528848720_a4184574e9_o.jpg
    When Niall discovered that he was single, he rolled a wish to kiss him for the first time. I paused the game and thought about it for a bit and decided to let him have his wish :D
    42620906424_9d0b3c83a7_o.jpg
    Carlo didn't object :p
    41528847530_3499761eb4_o.jpg
    When I checked a few minutes later, Niall was flirting but had a wish to give Carlo a friendly hug. He was feeling a little conflicted I guess.
    42620905704_c0f67380d9_o.jpg
    When the couples had got woohoo out of their system, I had them join the rest of the family.
    41528846210_87f2a3e84e_o.jpg
    42620904794_ef186f76b1_o.jpg
    When the kids tried to go home, I decided it was time to leave so I sent the family to the Worries and Woes Country Pub.
    41528844940_4aa40b9d90_o.jpg
    Lydia found the sand pit as soon as she got there :)
    42620904174_3387152b46_o.jpg
    It must have been too nice outside because the couples stayed outside to flirt ;)
    41528843650_1bf6a5e981_o.jpg
    Maggie interrupted Lachie and Alvin for a game of catch and I was happy to see Alpin playing his violin :)
    42620903504_cf7c1c2f4c_o.jpg
    It's such a cute building :)
    41528842080_838b08e3a2_o.jpg
    It wasn't long before everyone was playing catch so I decided it was time to move on.

    I sent the family to one of the town's pools. I can't remember its name. It was either the Siesta Community Pool or the Palatial Pool.
    41528840580_d7561c7573_o.jpg
    I was amazed when Lachie lost a breath holding contest with Lydia!

    They ended up in a tight cluster and lots of splashing took place.
    41528836160_6ddab371eb_o.jpg
    I was trying to get the family out of the pool so they could go to dinner but it was a mess! Rory jumped straight back in so that a female townie could splash him and the others dragged their feet so long I thought they would starve!
    42620899534_5aa72583b8_o.jpg
    I ended up dressing the family with MC because they were quite hungry by the time they got to Tasty Treats and Tomes. Marisa still had water effects :#
    42620898864_6f87e12e1b_o.jpg
    While the family were eating, the street lights came on :)
    41528834080_956f7680dd_o.jpg
    I let them do their own thing when they got home.
    41528832510_d1313ae5af_o.jpg
    41528831770_36020517fd_o.jpg
    Lachie and Alvin watched the door again :D
    42620896204_bc8aee4d63_o.jpg
    I didn't let Marisa do her own thing. I was punishing her for starting a second painting by making her finish the first. Artistic sims will have works in progress on any free easel if you let them! :#
    42434189995_76f14abe21_o.jpg
    I can see that Maggie will be a problem with the games of catch but she won't be with the main household for long so I will put up with it.
    42620895494_7fb06008bc_o.jpg
    I had Niall prepare some hamburgers for the fridge. I don't feel bad about making him cook on vacation because I know he won't die :)

    Lachie and Rory got the naughty corner at breakfast :p
    42682822834_a59b51fb6b_o.jpg
    Lydia's waking wish was to find a rock.
    43399174181_8afc5bfea2_o.jpg
    Maggie's waking wish was to find a bug.
    42682822204_e92a4eaa63_o.jpg
    Marisa's waking wish was to prepare a meal.
    43399173471_4d3d487db4_o.jpg
    The kitchen was the place to be this morning! I do like how sims will try to stay close to each other when their relationship levels are high :)
    28530145907_9835e3db29_o.jpg
    I didn't realize how difficult it was for kids to get out of dining chairs! I found Carson like this when I was pausing for something else. He had just finished reading a book.
    28530144917_c53fbf1e14_o.jpg
    After chatting with Alvin, Niall wandered off for a drink.
    43399171491_d9ec01f5c4_o.jpg
    It always makes me happy when the boys pull out their violins :)
    28530144087_922a83e653_o.jpg
    When I heard baby chimes I paused and went looking for Marisa and Rory. Thanks to @bekkasan I know that she won't show any symptoms until she gets home so I will just leave things as they are.
    43399170771_3444774556_o.jpg
    All four kids rolled wishes to play in the treehouse! This has never happened at home except immediately after a treehouse has been bought.
    28530143427_32f5cb4281_o.jpg
    43399169871_247da73044_o.jpg
    Niall must have started on the romantic drinks when I wasn't looking :p
    28530142137_36d9774dde_o.jpg
    Good thing he had his clothes on because the treehouse is very close to the hot tub!
    43399169061_802ed8d839_o.jpg
    I don't know where Marisa was, but Rory went to the hot tub to dance to the portable stereo.

    While Rory was dancing, I went looking for Marisa and found her reading in the garden.
    28530140067_48e8f69a6c_o.jpg
    Lachie's waking wish was to play a game with Alvin. Since Alvin had a wish to level up and both enjoy chess, I had them play together. Alvin got his wish :)
    43399167501_8cff6337a7_o.jpg
    Alpin pulled out his violin when he was done in the treehouse :)
    28530139057_beec6720c3_o.jpg
    Maggie interrupted Alvin and Lachie's flirting to ask about Lachie's day.
    42495323095_e283d152a4_o.jpg
    I sent Lachie to the woodfire oven to make some lasagne.
    28530138387_cf057a22fb_o.jpg
    That's a little overdone, Lachie! :#
    42495322375_4de089f936_o.jpg
    Marisa must have finished her book and came over to dance to Alpin's violin :)
    28530137637_dd8c75be51_o.jpg
    Lachie got it right on his second attempt :)
    42495321695_1d3168a84b_o.jpg
    I kept seeing little ginger heads bobbing over the fence and found Lydia and Carson playing catch :)
    29529086928_4fc9d81f82_o.jpg
    Niall must have got lonely in the hot tub and went over to Alpin for a chat :)
    42495320705_524ce30eed_o.jpg
    When Niall went back to the bar for another drink, I had him make some more.
    29529086408_8a935f90ac_o.jpg
    Lachie had been trying to play computer games but Lydia wanted to play catch.
    42495319865_8f381b780c_o.jpg
    Grandpa also wanted to play catch :)
    29529085828_c09a9408c7_o.jpg
    You wanted it, Lydia! :D

    I decided to place The Boardwalk in the world and sent Alvin and Niall to test the roller coaster.
    42495318605_23526f2a30_o.jpg
    29529084958_45c2179756_o.jpg
    I had the rest of the family join them when I saw that it worked. As soon as they arrived they all started asking each other for games of catch so I took the balls out of their inventories and left them in the front hall :D
    42495317785_f999e22a7b_o.jpg
    Once their balls were gone they were happy to amuse themselves :)
    29529084548_dc5d6e241c_o.jpg
    I tried to send Alpin and Carson on a ride but apparently kids need to ride with an adult.

    42495316595_b2b7c1fda1_o.jpg
    I heard woohoo and rushed over to see who it was. It was Rory and Marisa and they were trying for baby again. They mustn't have realized that their last attempt was fruitful!
    29529083808_d434f1a055_o.jpg
    42495316225_e3c0f1e814_o.jpg
    Since Carson missed out, I had Lachie take him on the big ride!

    42495315865_6c88346cf2_o.jpg

    The big ride took quite a while but was way more exciting to watch than the short one.
    29529082958_3d6cd00284_o.jpg
    I couldn't stop laughing when I saw the shark jump out of the water. My son was worried that I had lost the plot ;)
    42495314985_c2c7240d81_o.jpg
    29529082718_f868d922b5_o.jpg
    I hadn't had a good look around and didn't know what was on the lot but sims will always find something that interests them and Niall had found the pinball machines :) I didn't take a pic but the kids had found some spring riders at the base of the roller coaster.
    42495314645_6a6515efb9_o.jpg
    I sent the family to the Diner for dinner :)
    29529082428_1318020800_o.jpg
    Here's a look after the street light came on.
    42495314265_10842e631a_o.jpg
    Lachie and Alvin watched the stars when they got home :)
    29529082178_be65cba9f4_o.jpg
    As did Rory and Marisa :) The kids simultaneously rolled wishes to use the costume chest.
    28530124367_aa15227d65_o.jpg
    29529081788_69a6c284a2_o.jpg
    28530123617_c04c5b2181_o.jpg
    Lachie and Rory went to the hot tub to woohoo when I saw Niall in Lachie's queue.
    29529081328_6992a5e2c0_o.jpg
    The kids amused themselves after playing dress up :)
    28530122737_067dd6f3a9_o.jpg
    29529080818_dd08843812_o.jpg
    When Niall failed to get Lachie's attention he went for another drink.
    28530122097_78656248d0_o.jpg
    He tried again and, from the lack of a puddle, I think he must have cancelled their earlier attempt at woohoo.

    It feels like forever since I last saw my beautiful Lachie! Of course I watched him while I waited for him to wake up :p
    44622449132_06717782b0_o.jpg
    What a huge shock to go from playing 2 sims in my Showtime save to a household of 9! :o It was wonderful to see them again and I was glad they were still on vacation so I could ease myself back into the save :) Lachie got the naughty corner ;)
    44671975911_5c00f917c1_o.jpg
    Lydia's waking wish was to find a bug :)
    44622448782_1c1f9dce85_o.jpg
    Maggie's waking wish was to have a tea party with her teddy :)
    44671975311_0ba82a9759_o.jpg
    Lachie's waking wish was to talk about gardening but he also rolled a wish to prepare pancakes after breakfast.
    29733917817_7c6f5b3bc1_o.jpg
    Alvin's waking wish was to learn a new recipe. I gave that to him with MC. He also had a wish to level up in athletics. Niall's waking wish was to talk about gardening but I was saving that for Lachie. In the meantime, he had a drink and was about to head to the hot tub when Lydia returned and asked him for a game of catch.
    44671974331_353008c30c_o.jpg
    Carson's waking wish was to finish a book but he also had a wish to play catch with Uncle Rory :) Rory had no waking wish.
    29733917137_112062e7fb_o.jpg
    Alpin's waking wish was to go fishing :)
    44671973451_3712d27881_o.jpg
    Niall and Lachie got their wishes to talk about gardening :)
    29733916007_6f78ea15fa_o.jpg
    Poor Maggie! Lydia is eco friendly and every time I checked her thumbnail she was talking about recycling or renewable energy :D
    30801254718_8ea6624cd1_o.jpg
    Carson started on a book but he didn't get his wish to finish one that day but I wasn't concerned because he had no school to rush off to and I knew he would get many wishes throughout the day.
    29733915227_0926b3077c_o.jpg
    Marisa's waking wish was to call a townie. After she did that, I had her get started on her wish to level up in logic. When I sent Rory to join her he rolled a wish to play a game with her and she one to chat with him :)
    44622446052_bb73d93bf6_o.jpg
    A karaoke bar appeared overnight ;)
    29733914217_3f5fff55ef_o.jpg
    Although I may have seen kids singing karaoke I had totally forgotten and was pleasantly surprised when I saw Niall and Alpin heading inside to sing together :)

    I saw the girls heading to the back of the bar and found them playing in the sandpit. I put a few kid friendly items in the back of the lot since there was space left over when I put the bar down.
    29733912737_ba801cf586_o.jpg
    Rory came in to watch his brother sing :)

    Carson and Lachie chatted for so long that Alvin got out a book :D
    43953122744_aaff723489_o.jpg
    I saw Alpin pull out his violin to play for tips :)
    44671967331_8f9333342c_o.jpg
    Niall made himself a quick drink :)
    44671966651_7955a3de5c_o.jpg
    When I checked on Lachie I found Carson also playing the violin :)
    44671966171_023759d904_o.jpg
    Niall and Marisa were heading out to play catch and Rory sang on his own :)

    Lydia and Niall played catch. I can tell from the ball that Lydia instigated it. I bet she's sorry ;)
    44671963471_2e99c71668_o.jpg
    Maggie and Alpin sang together :)

    Niall had another drink.

    When I saw how much space was left over after placing a playground in the back for the kids, I also placed a mechanical bull :) Jared and Connor never changed outfit when riding the bull so I was surprised when Niall changed into this!

    When a few of the family tried going home, I sent everyone.
    44671959661_12404d3570_o.jpg
    Rory and Marisa helped themselves to Lachie and Alvin's bed!
    29733902207_a8251fb947_o.jpg
    Niall took a drink to the hot tub.

    As did Marisa and Rory :)
    44671957561_09cd97bcca_o.jpg
    Niall made some more drinks after he chatted long distance with Kenna.
    43953116444_9ce2923439_o.jpg
    I saw Lachie heading deep into the garden to read but Alvin, who was on his way inside, got distracted by Niall skinny dipping and went back to Lachie for more flirting :)
    44671957091_b5544e7d8b_o.jpg
    Niall relaxed in the hot tub until it was time for bed :)

    Lachie and Rory got the naughty corner at breakfast :D
    44854487832_e80c4c009e_o.jpg
    Maggie's waking wish was to find a rock. Lydia and Alpin had wishes to call local kids and Carson wanted attention from dad, which he got at breakfast.
    44854486922_e850955bcc_o.jpg
    Rory's waking wish was to play a game with Lydia :)
    43092537620_28b07f925d_o.jpg
    Niall's waking wish was to ride the mechanical bull but it was too early so I let him do what he wanted :)
    44854486442_a80b3722e1_o.jpg
    Alvin interrupted Lachie and Maggie's chat for woohoo :D
    43092537080_4844fd54b3_o.jpg
    Alpin played chess on the computer.
    44854485992_728b9f105d_o.jpg
    I found Marisa and Carson reading in the kitchen.
    44904451761_d385ca244e_o.jpg
    I loved the way Lachie looked at his dad on his way to the hot tub :)
    43092536080_255275fce0_o.jpg
    As I was watching the boys get into the hot tub, I heard Niall yelp and zoomed to him in time for the fall :D

    Rory went straight to Marisa when he finished playing catch :) I'm still angry at her for getting pregnant :# Even though she won't be pregnant when I get back to Sunset Valley, she keeps rolling craving wishes :#
    43092534000_937b4fd288_o.jpg
    I love when Lachie's evil shows :)
    44904447371_5ec702a9be_o.jpg
    The girls can talk for ages! Even when their fun bars take a hit, they are happy to gab for hours!

    I couldn't see Rory and Marisa in the kitchen and found them in Lachie's bed :D

    When Carson got sick of reading he went to Lachie for a chat :)
    43092532560_fd6a307095_o.jpg
    Alpin must have tired of computer chess :D
    43092531590_f743b2662d_o.jpg
    Carson chatted with his grandpa :) It's good that the family always finds time for him :)
    44854482892_efd7640ba7_o.jpg
    Niall finally got his waking wish :)
    43092531030_9c8b74e092_o.jpg
    Carson had been trying to play his violin when Maggie interrupted for a game of catch.
    43092530710_24567f91cb_o.jpg
    The couples were flirting inside :)
    44854481992_ae5fda9330_o.jpg
    Niall was enjoying himself :)
    43092530130_7e9ca45b97_o.jpg
    He even got to boast about his grandchildren :D

    Niall took the family to the Diner for dinner :)
    31031374528_d7c7a8bb7d_o.jpg
    Eveyone piled into the clown car :D

    Rory chatted with his brother :)

    The girls played catch. I think Maggie may have instigated this because she loves the outdoors.

    Geniuses are as bad as bookworms when it comes to reading!

    Rory and Niall went for a drink at the same time. Rory started for the hot tub but must have changed his mind.

    Niall danced after his drink :) Lachie and Alvin flirted after watching the stars :)

    Lachie wandered off to read and Alvin chatted with his father-in-law :) Rory and Marisa were about to woohoo :D

    Alpin had been playing chess on the computer but came in to chat with Lachie :)

    Lachie got the naughty corner on his own today.
    44263686595_ec8052d878_o.jpg
    Alpin's waking wish was to catch a bug :) He caught a cockroach :#
    44452671554_3e61f94854_o.jpg
    Alpin played his violin when he got home :)
    44452671044_4016ea9950_o.jpg
    Rory was trying to talk with Lachie but Alvin wanted to flirt.

    Niall showed off his mixology skills :)
    45174815191_52fcca0762_o.jpg
    Niall came in to chat with Lachie. They were spread out because Lachie had been blowing Alvin a kiss before he came in and they had to move away from Rory to do it. Marisa had just finished preparing a meal as that was her waking wish.

    Lachie and Alvin got frisky but the spacing was still wrong and the tickle missed :D
    45174813631_946428a740_o.jpg
    The kids simultaneously rolled wishes to play in the treehouse.

    Lachie and Alvin chose the shower when they got frisky :p

    I found Niall chatting with Carson.
    31301307778_e0994f4edb_o.jpg
    I'd moved the camera away to look at another sim but when I saw Niall getting ready to pinch Carson's cheek I quickly zoomed back :D

    I found Rory and Marisa in the shower. I was surprised because they normally choose Lachie's bed :D
    31301305368_a4f99249a6_o.jpg
    I lost count of how many games of catch took place during the day but I figured they are on vacation so I left them to it.
    43360899710_2f8ee0aca2_o.jpg
    Carson must have a hidden irresistible trait (he's my favourite so I can understand) because I found Rory chatting with him when Niall went off to have a drink.

    31301303738_50a6e9396f_o.jpg
    Lachie rolled a wish to make a romantic drink. Niall and Rory, being party animals, chose to dance :)
    43360896920_5737cba876_o.jpg
    Oops :D
    31301302698_4c371427dc_o.jpg
    43360895820_b398df2a22_o.jpg
    It looks painful! :(
    31301301498_62b15d416c_o.jpg
    But the only thing Niall hurt was his pride ;)
    31301299138_a83ab23136_o.jpg
    Lachie and Alvin sampled the romantic drinks :)
    43360892730_ddf3a0de7e_o.jpg
    I thought it was adorable when I saw Lydia hugging Alpin :)
    31301297828_f28a208d85_o.jpg
    Carson snuck off to read a book in a quiet corner of the garden. I found him when he finished his book.

    Yet another game of catch!
    44452656254_26e06986f9_o.jpg
    So much for Carson's quiet corner ;)
    31301295748_90921fd748_o.jpg
    I saw the treehouse rocking :D
    44452655304_9febd6b849_o.jpg
    I believe Niall and Maggie were heading off for yet another game of catch!
    44452654634_969181490c_o.jpg
    Alvin tried to play chess but Lachie found him :D
    44452653454_8e3a261498_o.jpg
    No more naughty corner! :D
    45174798091_b23dbbbcf6_o.jpg
    The kids all rolled wishes to play in costumes while they were eating dinner.
    44452652804_5ebd3c30c2_o.jpg
    The couples watched the house :D
    45174797141_77e34f6516_o.jpg
    Niall's waking wish was to play an arcade game. He also had a wish to meet someone new. I sent him to the karaoke bar and he met Silvia Monty.
    44452651944_ba195da414_o.jpg
    That led to a wish to boast about his grandchildren :)
    45174796051_0c6d994c4d_o.jpg
    Then he got his waking wish :)
    44452651174_17c033e9e8_o.jpg
    When I was rounding the kids up for bed I found Alpin playing his violin again :)

    The family enjoyed their last breakfast in Monte Vista.
    44287066195_59a184767d_o.jpg
    Then they crammed into the clown car for the trip home ;)
    44287065045_e1c9c0915e_o.jpg
    43385118130_05de2d93b3_o.jpg
    For the sake of continuity let's say the family traveled all day and got home in time for bed, early enough for Carson and Lydia to wake up in time for their first day of school :p
    44287063635_893dcaceef_o.jpg
    Rory's waking wish was to garden. Alvin's was to grow a perfect apple tree.
    43385116520_c8e877e33e_o.jpg
    Alpin's waking wish was to play with a toy.
    44287062185_12a0355737_o.jpg
    Carson's waking wish was to preside over his royal court. Lydia didn't have a waking wish but Marisa's was to play catch with Lydia.
    43385115280_441ba75ac9_o.jpg
    Maggie rolled a wish to talk with Rory over breakfast but it wasn't fulfilled so I had her interrupt Rory after he got his wish.
    44287061385_ecf32ec0ae_o.jpg
    Alvin's top had been driving me crazy because of the clipping on his jeans whenever he bent over so I changed it :D
    43385114200_363a2e2f73_o.jpg
    Niall's waking wish was to fish :)
    44287060365_7d6054d240_o.jpg
    After chatting with Rory, Maggie got her waking wish to catch a bug :)

    I'd forgotten that Brett was visiting. When I saw him float through the living room I had Rory go in to chat with his dad. When I checked on them they were sharing a secret :)
    43385112020_f83c6a01d0_o.jpg
    44287058575_472f8e0bf9_o.jpg
    Lachie had a wish to take a photo with a friend. It was locked in before they went on vacation. When Alvin finished gardening I got the wish out of the way :)
    43385110990_b9d3873ebe_o.jpg
    Alvin has a wish to level up in fishing and Lachie a wish to master fishing so I sent them fishing.
    44287057655_9845ef260a_o.jpg
    Niall and Rory sang together after Brett left :)
    43385109410_f30c27f5ab_o.jpg
    I sometimes forget they are brothers because of the age difference.
    44287056795_b4a1ae81ca_o.jpg
    The kids went on a field trip to the Theatre. Gerry Frio was chaperone.
    43385108210_33773f7665_o.jpg
    No other townie children attended although I am sure there are at least 4 other children in town :(
    44287056105_1eed4a23c2_o.jpg
    Niall enjoyed a drink after singing with Rory :)
    43385107200_6eea2a6ce5_o.jpg
    He almost got into the hot tub with his drink but changed his mind at the last moment to get to know his son-in-law :)
    44287055305_0efc0e1990_o.jpg
    Lachie had been waiting to blow Alvin a kiss :)
    43385106000_1b60cc90da_o.jpg
    I heard woohoo so rushed back to the house and found Marisa and Rory in Niall's bed :D
