    Kingson family vacation!
    CAUTION: possible spoilers ahead if you read the story
    Since I don't have Outdoor Retreat, I sent them to the lot on Sunday afternoon and they didn't go back home until a week later. I had to make them all take days off from school and work daily before they left on their own. Since Rosie lives with the neighbors, I moved her there - with a random townie that was old enough - so she could be with us the whole week. She went to school but came back at three. It was all fun and games until relationship levels with her family started decreasing because she'd catch them sleeping or cooking in her house. Once or twice the other random townie came to talk to the family and had to be avoided from the screenshots.

    Getting them to do things together as a family was tough because everyone wanted to do other things and since it's a big lot, it would take some longer than others to get where they were supposed to be. Also, someone had to bring Rosie over because I don't control her. Having them all sit together also took many tries because they'd get up and try to sit somewhere else, making the sim that was about to sit there, not be able to and I'd have to try again. I probably play in pause mode more than live mode lol

    But I love sibling time. Here are some screenshots of the second generation as kids and teens.

    Ooh the behind the scenes post is so interesting, must have been so much work! I love how you worked around having Rosie there with them for the full holiday, what a cool idea! I did something somewhat similar in the past - I downloaded this teen hangout lot but wanted to make sure that there was always teens "hanging out" there so I moved in a family with 7 teenagers.

    I just love all the photos of all of the Kingson kids together, melts my heart!

    Thank you for reading. It took time but it was so fun, it really did feel like they were on vacation, only Ash still had to clean lol
    I was going to say I should do that too but first I need to get teens in my game. I think I'm going to look through the gallery for some.
    I love when they do things together! That's the reason why I was so excited to have seven kids

    The Kingson kids are all grown up and they keep growing. Rylan and Harmony have pictures of all seven of them together on their mantle.

    I want to have lots of sim kids with every generation lol
    I think it might be because I was an only child for 19 years, until my dad remarried, and I never liked being by myself lol. I always wanted a sibling, so now I'm searching for my big family, in real life lol, although not this big XD

    That makes sense! I'm an only child myself - though I loved it for the most part, I spent hours on my own making up stories as a kid :)

    Part 28. Helping Out http://luxsimsworld.blogspot.com/2015/06/dp-helping-out.html
    The teens are trying to help out Rosie. They even get to go to Luigi Arcade and see if what Bijou said about it it's true.

    Luigi Arcade
    CAUTION: possible spoilers ahead if you read the story
    I'm not a builder or a decorator either but I wanted to include all the awesome CC I found. Here's the post where you can find the links to the talented creators: http://luxsimsworld.blogspot.com/2015/06/luigi-arcade-cc-info.html
    I knew it would take me forever if I was going to build it so I went looking for a lot on the gallery. I found Super Mario remade into Luigi and I thought it'd be perfect. (I love Luigi!) There's also a speed'build' video I made of it if you want to watch :smile:

    I found the seating blocks and after trying to find the best way to place them I decided to move them up against the wall and add them as decoration. I never thought they'd sit on them.
    06-19-15_3-04%25C2%25A0PM.png

    I made the lot generic because I didn't want too many adult sims going in. No teens will go to the venues in my save, the ones I see all the time are the Frosts. They don't have jobs so that's probably how they spend their lives, traveling everywhere! Seriously, everywhere I go, Elsa and Jack are there.
    I didn't have any sims come into the arcade but with my sim kids and their partners, it was pretty full. It's a small place, 13 x 16 and that includes the restrooms and an office. More teens hanging out there would be better but I thought it was pretty good for their first visit there.
    The idea was to include arcade machines but I had an error that said something about script called fail. I'm going to download them again and see if it works this time. I also found the vending machines I thought didn't appear in my game so I may need to move some things and add others, if they work that is.

    Thanks @Rivie and yes I am not only one way and this comment should get me there. I will send you the link over to my tread that on here but it is being written on my blog here: sims3content.wordpress.com - mind the name. I can not change until some time down the road. It is still in a working progress.

    On the topic of your behind the scenes post, how do the sims sit on those cubes that are so high up? Do they just... teleport? :D

    Lol they jump, I actually recorded it because I didn't think they would and the first time I saw one of them sitting there I had to try it and record it.
