Hello all. Thank you for your good wishes for my audition. I survived. Others were as confused add i was regarding the need for an audition. But I took advantage and read for a speaking part too. No idea what I'll be doinb, if anything. Now I'm getting ready for tomorrow's concert. I sang through the concert music this afternoon. I'm also missing my sims but need to focus on music this weekend. But I'll be posting videos asap next week.
Here's another, much shorter, batch! My game is starting to crash more, I figured it's just the save getting too big and ended up Portering the town to a new version of Meadow Glen, which seemed to fix the problem as far as I can tell. I also switched HQ mods to one of slightly lesser quality, but now my sims don't take too long to render in completely.
Legacy Family Part 10.1
Killian was having a disagreement with a random girl when I popped back into the game. They seemed to have incompatible traits. The two of them seemed fine after that, but he was sent off to do something else afterwards because she was way too heavily attracted to him.
Lucy and Torrance started talking to each other again. He was definitely one of the more handsome teens in town.
Killian was having a water balloon fight with Stacey Curran. He seemed to be really popular with the girls as they were always trying to talk to him. I just hoped that after he married Maggie and moved out, Story Progression wouldn't make him cheat on her.
Irwin still loved Jessica, even with her very obvious pie face.
Kiera competed in a Apple Bobbing contest. She had a wish to become friends with Beverly not long after that.
Grayson skated and ended up spinning with Torrance for a little bit. It didn't last long though and the two decided to pretend it didn't happen.
Scarlet and Elise both wanted to have a jam session with each other and broke out their guitars, even getting a few tips as well.
Maggie smugly showed off her skills on the rink.
Lucy gifted Torrance one of the gaming sets the family never used. He really seemed to appreciate it.
Killian seemed to be spending more time with Stacey than his own girlfriend, but so far their interactions were only friendly. She did like to follow him around a lot though.
Torrance ended up leaving because he had to go to work and Lucy had the want to chat with someone else from her class and called him on the phone to fulfill the wish.
Grayson finally managed to get Beverly alone and confessed his attraction for her. She confessed that she felt the same and they had their first kiss near the outside dining tables and floral bushes. He didn't ask her to be his girlfriend, yet. He wanted that moment to be even more special.
The two of them had an apple bobbing contest after that with Jessica and Irwin. I didn't get to see who won since I was paying attention to someone else at the time.
The one-in-all bathrooms were breaking left and right, so the culprits were being sent back in to fix them. Contrary to this picture, Kiera wasn't the one who broke this one. It was Killian.
Instead, Kiera found Beverly and began to talk to her to start fulfilling that want to become her friend.
Killian had gotten cursed going through the haunted house again, but that didn't stop Maggie from showing him some lovin'
*I thought that she was kissing someone else at first and I was about to get so mad and have Killian go catch her and yell at her, but then I saw that it was Killian and I felt stupid *
Lucy broke another one of the all-in-one bathrooms and was sent back in to fix it.
Killian had taken Maggie to the bistro and then invited her back over to the house to spend the night where they quickly claimed the newly decorated guest room since it was the only other room besides the master suite that had a double bed.
The next morning while Maggie was trying to use the bathroom, Killian cornered her and tried to mooch a large amount of money from her, but she turned him down.
*You know, if Killian keeps trying to mooch money after woohoo, I'm going to have to look for a new profession for him. *
He didn't seem too upset since he flirted with her afterwards.
The family, including Maggie, had pancakes for breakfast that morning. Killian wanted to make sure she had something to eat before she left.
He tried to be romantic as he kissed her good-bye, but the moment was made awkward by Irwin laughing at them.
This just happended, the only sims under my control was Greyson and her horse.
Greyson took a trip to the elixir shop to sell a few elixirs.
At least she got off, that´s what matters.
A young lord wanted to have a word.
Greyson did not like what he had to say.
"Are you completely right in the head, boy?" She asked.
They young lord was offended.
"Bugger off or I´ll toadify you!"
The young lord promptly went to tend to Greysons horse.
He then went back inside of the elixir shop.
He went upstairs to the second floor where Lester was having a quiet moment in the rocking chair.
The young lord made Lester get out of the rocking chair.
"Go away, peasant"
Talking back to the son of your lord is never a good idea, Lester was obviously thinking.
At least he got to get his way with someone, if not with Greyson.
Jessica bottle fed Cherry while Kiera and Lucy both wanted to let the horses out, despite the fact that they'd been out of their stalls for the past sim hour.
*This family also likes to try bottle feeding Cherry constantly, even when she's full. I'll sometimes check on her and she'll have four sims queued up to try and bottle feed her. It's a bit annoying. *
Midnight and Cashew groomed each other. Midnight was technically related to him even though he doesn't show up on the pet family tree. So far the horse family tree has been as follows:
Midnight + Daisy = Banner
Banner + Dancer = Jumper
Jumper + Snowball = Cashew
Cashew + Star = Cherry
So Midnight would be Cherry's great-great grandfather.
Irwin and Jessica tended to the garden after the kids left for school and spent some romantic time together.
Cashew really loved Cherry and was a very affectionate and attentive father.
Jessica went back outside once she was done with her rendevous with Irwin and started grooming the horses.
Irwin wanted to work out for six hours straight and finally had the time to do it.
Jessica fed the chickens and harvested a few eggs before going back inside to work on a large painting.
Irwin had been wanting to master gardening for a while, but those final two points were taking forever to obtain.
The kids had come home from school and I went to go check on them and found this out by the mailbox! This happened with no help from me! I'm not one to deny fate, so it's possible that Lucy has found her future spouse. We'll see how things go.
He had to leave not long after to go to work.
The kids who didn't have to go to work just yet or have after school opportunities got started on their homework.
Jessica and Irwin were both hungry from their martial arts training and had a quick green salad. Irwin had also managed to get the top belt too!
After finishing her homework, Lucy took advantage of the radio and began to do a cardio workout.
Killian and Elise both wanted to improve on some skills and sat down to do just that.
Irwin and Jessica managed to sneak away to the bedroom for a bit of woohoo action.
[/url]
Even after their time in bed, they still wanted more of each other.
Beverly seemed to be an aspiring equestrian, but she was also still very uncomfortable on a horse.
Jessica entered Star into two more competitions, winning first place in both of them once again.
Irwin had a few paranormal jobs, one of which was exorcising a few objects around someone's house.
He received notice of a reward and hurried down the City Hall to claim it, ignoring the woman giving him dirty looks as he went inside.
The teens were doing a combination of things, such as eating quick dinners, finishing homework that they didn't get to do before work, or just playing video games.
The next morning, the family had pancakes for breakfast.
Irwin and Jessica decided to take a shower together to save on time and the other kids were sent to the all-in-one bathrooms after they finished eating.
Scarlet broke the one she was using and promptly went back in to try and fix it before school.
Jessica was the last one out of the shower before it broke, so she's the one who ended up fixing it.
While broken objects were being fixed, Irwin went around the house making the beds.
This little guy was hanging around the horse training grounds and I did a little Debug Enabler cheating to catch him along with a Macaw and added them both to the family.
*Unfortunately, when I portered the town to the new Meadow Glen save, he got lost. *
Jessica sat down to improve her social networking while Irwin continued to work on fulfilling that six hour workout want.
All of the teens had a field trip to the police station today and a few of them even brought one of those plaques back.
There were a few pranks waiting to be set off and the glowing lights were starting to get annoying, so Jessica was called to get rid of them and ended up suffering for it.
Irwin rolled the want to learn painting and got started on it, earning a couple of points rather quickly.
Still dripping wet from the numerous pranks, Jessica started on a Sci-Fi novel.
The kids immediately got started on their homework when they got home. Lucy was out completing an opportunity for an increased grade average.
Killian wanted to hang out with his mom and thought that mooching food off of her was a great way to bond. Surprisingly, she accepted and gave him a breakfast burrito.
Once Killian got the food from his mom, he turned around to watch Elise play the guitar and danced along.
@Emily4331 bad shrimp? hehe Congrats! I assume Beau's?
Some of the conversions I've seen are very very good, some are very very bad. I don't think I could use those.
I just took a dress out that was a conversion as it was on the very very bad scale!
Dag girl! More troubles.
@meerkattime Congrats on them finally getting a house.
I do agree that Goodwin should stay in the doghouse err tent!
The IF is not bad looking for a scary IF to begin with! Oh wow....planted one on her.
@mikezumi Congrats on Niall getting his first salmon.
That is a great looking pond lot!
I do like how they can woohoo in the sauna and the steam rises for discretion!
Alvin and Lachie are cute together.
Evil Lachie may have enjoyed a tour of the catacombs!
A wedding! Yaah. Congrats to they happy couple!
Lol at your flirting sims during the wedding.
Beautiful view during the ceremony.
Much easier to cut and eat cake with just a few sims. Derek and Kendall are having a small wedding!
Gorgeous sunset with the pics.
@ItsJanier Great pics of your sims!
That is a big crowd at the school!
@ZhakiraP Oh dear, cc that interferes with being able to potty! That must have been an interesting find in game that they suddenly had issues.
Love the pics of your game.
@Naphtali -I've got it in my game and it's not causing any lag at all and it's only one of the over 700 Mod files I've got installed and a few of them are big files like awsomemod.I even have trouble getting my pictures at times because I've forgotten to pause my game for shots. @LunBeauty -Great update! @Silverofdreams30 -Thanks for your comment.Great update! @bekkasan -I hope you get a great computer soon. @Charlottesmom -Thanks for the comment.Great update! @polrbear -Thanks for the warning. @PalmArrow -Great update! @king_of_simcity7 -Thanks for the comment. @TinySpaceFox -I might try it out though it would put my Mod count closer to the 800 mark. @Emily4331 -Great pictures! @MoonandStars83 -Great picture!I hope you can just turn the graphics way down and play with the Mods in on low graphics and low resolution. @MagicEmerald -Hi there!That sounded like fun. @Simsophonique -I've still got my laptop and enjoy the game on it.Great update! @Springfairy556 -Its one of those things that can happen without you knowing it or finding out right away and can begin to corrupt a save before you discover the child got taken. @lanlyn -It was the default settings that were breaking things as the lots werre flagged as being allowed for progression and push to visit was true and it was enabled as rentable.I had to change those on every lot in town.It started when I was playing live and kept noticing the town was way too bustling for a new colonial settlement.I let it go for the first few days as it could've been busier with the ship's crew running around town to repair their ship and restock for the trip back home. @plushtrap_107 -It's being done though there was so many lots with the broken settings because the default settings were still in place and that's not what I want or need in that town. @meerkattime -Great update! @Mikezumi -Great update!Thanks for the comment.I match my sims up to the best partner and that would be a sim they were childhood bff's with growing up if they were born in the town or immigrated there as a toddler. @ZhakiraP -That's true even if you have slightly less than the over 700 files I've got and two of them are awsomemod and the config file with the automated school assignment disabled.Great update! @ItsJanier -Great update!That crowd outside of the school used to happen in my Mod-free games and I also love having lots of children and kids in town though I have automated school assignmets disabled by one of my Mods so I don't get any of the school issues like the overcrowding,routing fails or sims attending the wrong schools.
Here's another Sunset Valley2 update below.
Salisbury Beach,Massachusetts-Under Repairs.
Here's another lot with broken settings before repairs.
Repairs to settings in progress.
Here's the same lot with repaired settings.
Here's another lot after the settings got repaired.
@LunBeauty : I agree. When they are not dying by spontaneous fires , I am tired everybody is dying currently on nights on days it's 18°c in my town we are summer and all they are doing is burning. @bekkasan: Miss V's faces are indeed legendary ahaha. @TadOlson: I don't like laptops but I hate my game right now all these deaths I don't want to play it.
@coco -- It was good!
Hmm.. I could be remembering wrong about the vacation thing too, haha.
@emorrill -- That is adorable! I'll have to play a family with a kitten now.
@bekkasan -- Yep! Just being off work is usually enough for me! Though I probably will do a day trip or two. I would like to go to our zoo. Last year they got a red panda, but when we went, he was off-exhibit. Ugh. (And it was pouring rain for part of it). So this year I'm gonna call first before I go! haha And remember an umbrella!
@Charlottesmom -- Black squirrels are cool. There aren't any in my area, but other parts of Michigan have them.
The twins are playing in their twin bed and Derek and Kendall check on them. Jade reaches up wanting out and Derek picks her up. Kendall picks up Jamie as he is insistent on getting out of the bed too. They play with the kids and give them their nighttime bottles.
Jade's eyes are drifting shut as she finishes her bottle. Kendall rocks her to sleep enjoying holding the sweet little girl. She watches Derek with Jamie and knows he will make a good Dad some day when they are ready. Jamie is wide awake and tells Derek "Play!" Derek takes him downstairs so he won't wake his sister. He knows a delivery arrived during the afternoon and a new toy was set up in the play yard. He takes him out and sets him on one of the spring riders and Jamie's eyes get big and he grabs the handles and holds tightly and starts laughing with delight as the horse gallops away with him. Derek could tell Jamie was getting tired so after the ride they walked around the yard for a few minutes as he pats his back and walks with him to relax him. He carries him back upstairs and sits in the rocking chair to finish putting him to sleep. Derek has just become favorite Uncle in Jamie's life. [/url
Jared and Alexandra enjoy their meal at the Bistro. As they leave he gives her a hug. "Lets go for a quick ride before going home."
Jared drives to one of their favorite places. It is deserted at this hour of the night so they enjoy being the only two there. They talk and kiss and kiss and talk, but, mostly kiss. "I've got one more place I want to go before we go home, is that ok with you? Alexandra nods, "I just texted Kendall and the twins are sleeping soundly, so yes, I'm good."
Jared drives out into the country past the large estates into the wooded area well beyond the city. He pulls up in front of the resort. It has been closed down for about a year now. He sits in the car for a few moments just looking at the rustic lodge. He helps Alexandra out of the car and they walk the property settling on a bench that looks out over the city in the distance. "I would love to buy this property and turn it into a home for our growing family. I wanted to see what you thought of it, whether you would like living this far away from the city. I've always been a city boy growing up in Roaring Heights and then moving to Bridgeport. I've been wanting to get away from living in the bright lights and would rather live where we can see the stars in the sky."
Alexandra snuggles closer to him resting her head on his shoulder. "I've loved this property since the first time you brought me here. I think it would be a perfect place to raise our children."
"I will put an option on it and then we can start saving the money to purchase and build on it. It may take awhile as it will not be cheap and I'd like the house built before we try to move in."
They cuddle together on the bench talking about their dreams for the future.
It is late and time to head home. They check on the toddlers who are sleeping soundly. Jared embraces Alexandra and takes her hand and leads her to their room.
@Mikezumi I admire your patience in sticking with the same save for so long and building up so many generations. Me, I'd get bored of my save loooong before then! Either that or the save would become corrupt, or simply too slow to play.
I'm glad you enjoyed my post
@TadOlson NRaas MasterController is a wonderful mod, isn't it? I love all the options it adds, it really lets me fine-tune the rules for my town and all the households in it.
Thank you for your comments, I really appreciate them :>
@LunBeauty Jessica's registered as a horsewoman? I guess she's looking for a stable income! Get it?
Man, I'd forgotten how quickly Sims can build up the athletic skill (especially the ones with the Athletic trait)... if only it worked that way in real life.
Heh, I bet that workout was all for naught after that hotdog eating contest! Then again, this is Sims... how do they maintain their perfect bodies?
Kilt Man, hahaha! Sounds like a weird superhero.
The one you have to reset the most? I bet there's one in every family... not just in the Sims, either
I dunno, I think those X's over Lucy's eyes have a really cool punk-rock vibe. Also reminds me of marshmello a little. She could've done without the nose and the whiskers though.
Homework returns with a vengeance! No day is safe, not even the holidays!
Lucy decided that she wanted to do a little bit of dumpster diving after she was finished applying for her job.
Was she looking for her resume in there? I'M KIDDING LUCY, I'M KIDDING! I'M SURE YOU'LL GET THAT JOB! PUT THAT CHAIR DOWN! PLEASE!
Ooh, Cherry looks so cool with that white face!
No shame, Jessica, no shame at all. I'm in my PJs all the time at home! Such is student life.
Gosh, that burglar, getting his rear end kicked not once, but twice! Do I feel sorry for him? Hmmm.... nah. Crime never pays, dude!
First place in racing and jumping, wow! Star's a real star! Two lame jokes in the same post so far, I'm on a roll
Congrats on the prom queen and prom king titles!
I feel an urge to go pick all those wildflowers in the background... especially those Cosmos which net a huge price. Can only imagine how they'd absolutely wreck the flower market if things were like that IRL.
What's with the suit, Errol? You've been wearing it since last night? Eww!
Good on Lucy for standing up to Errol! Dude seems like a first-class plum, and he doesn't even change his clothes
Aw, Grayson and Beverly make a cute couple!
He even gave her some wildflowers that he'd picked before she came over, which she really loved.
Were they Cosmos? Did she sell them? Nah, I'm kidding xD
Hahaha, I totally understand, those Zenyattas are a really good source of income! They pop up so often, and they sell for so much...
I never let my Sims touch any electrical appliance until they're at least level 5 or 6 in handiness! I'm just... scared of losing them.
Can't wait to see where Lucy and Torrance decide to go.
@polrbear Thanks for the warning about the hair! Skysims is very much a popular and trusted creator, I hope they got to know about this. Great that you managed to remove it from your game.
That totally looks like it belongs on a tourist brochure. Wonderful shot :>
Sharks can smell blood... but hopefully they can't smell pee
Lovely new swimsuit for Oliana!
"Good thing you just got promoted... or else you wouldn't have a ghost of a chance with my daughter!"
(Three lame jokes in a row! This must be a record or something )
Jamming and dancing on the glistening white sand... another pic that belongs in a brochure. Man I want Sunlit Tides now.
I might be free from exams for now (and I've got a one-month winter break ahead), but I still do have some work to do. I'm trying (emphasis on trying) to do some as I type this. It's due Monday, and it involves writing lots of reflective stuff (aka stuff you pull out of your rear, for the sake of showing the teacher you came to class instead of slacking off). Always fun. Ugh. My siggy is a pretty accurate depiction of how I feel about this.
So tonight's feedback will be in bits and pieces, I'll be going page by page. Probably won't be Simming much tonight, if at all, but oh well. I guess I can stock up on CC and plan out what to do in my next Simming session.
Busy day at work today but now I am back home starting work on my new video I am listening to some music as I sometimes turn the sound off when making videos
Oh, man, I might losing it.
I needed to start up my Age and Grow mods, since this is a new game... for the Grow one, it's activated on a teen or child Sim. I figure, I'll hang out outside the school, lots of kids there! I waited for a while. No kids.
Realized then it was summer, and school was on summer vacation.
Also, just had to grab this one...
Jason went to the summer festival and was chatting with a new friend (Stardust I think), when I heard the whoo-hoo harp music. I looked around and around, and finally spotted the photo booth. You can see it in the background there, with the hearts flying.
I waited, and discovered it was the Martins enjoying a bit of a frolic.
But then it was also time for Jason to head to work at the diner.
In this!
Needless to say, he got a little work attire makeover.
@OriginalMara Haven't been to the local zoo in a few years. That would be fun!
dag, strange work outfit!
Do you like the grow mods? I've never tried them.
@bekkasan , lovely update! I liked seeing the toddlers in their cute matching pajamas again!
@TinySpaceFox , I want to pick the cosmos flowers in @LunBeauty 's screenshot too!
Sunlit Tides really is a wonderful world AND it's the only store world that comes up on Daily Deal - I reccomend it wholeheartedly!
@OriginalMara , wow, what a work outfit! Well, maybe if he spends his whole day behind the counter and the customers never see his legs, he doesn't really have to wear trousers! I like your version much better!
I went into game just to finish the sim day I'd started playing. Nothing eventful happened, but William's band has a gig the day after tomorrow - I can't wait, because I've never played a band before!
After the jam session on the beach, William spent the afternoon snorkeling. He didn't find any shells, but his scuba diving skill is close to level five now.
I used some of the money he unexpectedly got for recording a commercial to buy him a better quality TV and bed
His house is completely covered with bamboo on the inside - I used @mycami21 's bamboo patterns:
She moved out of her mom's house to move in with her fiance.
Celebrating their engagement.
Her boyfriend has a daughter from a previous marriage(mom died) and the little girl doesn't like Autumn.She tried to prank her, but it didn't work out the way she hoped.
Comments
Happy Simming all.

Once Killian got the food from his mom, he turned around to watch Elise play the guitar and danced along.
That's it for this batch! I hope everyone enjoys.
@plushtrap_107 Thanks for the comments!
@Emily4331 bad shrimp? hehe Congrats! I assume Beau's?
Some of the conversions I've seen are very very good, some are very very bad. I don't think I could use those.
I just took a dress out that was a conversion as it was on the very very bad scale!
Dag girl! More troubles.
@meerkattime Congrats on them finally getting a house.
I do agree that Goodwin should stay in the doghouse err tent!
The IF is not bad looking for a scary IF to begin with!
@mikezumi Congrats on Niall getting his first salmon.
That is a great looking pond lot!
I do like how they can woohoo in the sauna and the steam rises for discretion!
Alvin and Lachie are cute together.
Evil Lachie may have enjoyed a tour of the catacombs!
A wedding! Yaah. Congrats to they happy couple!
Lol at your flirting sims during the wedding.
Beautiful view during the ceremony.
Much easier to cut and eat cake with just a few sims. Derek and Kendall are having a small wedding!
Gorgeous sunset with the pics.
@ItsJanier Great pics of your sims!
That is a big crowd at the school!
@ZhakiraP Oh dear, cc that interferes with being able to potty! That must have been an interesting find in game that they suddenly had issues.
Love the pics of your game.
@PalmArrow Thanks for the comments!
@Simsophonique Great pics of the expressions on your sims face as she looked at the art.

@LunBeauty -Great update!
@Silverofdreams30 -Thanks for your comment.Great update!
@bekkasan -I hope you get a great computer soon.
@Charlottesmom -Thanks for the comment.Great update!
@polrbear -Thanks for the warning.
@PalmArrow -Great update!
@king_of_simcity7 -Thanks for the comment.
@TinySpaceFox -I might try it out though it would put my Mod count closer to the 800 mark.
@Emily4331 -Great pictures!
@MoonandStars83 -Great picture!I hope you can just turn the graphics way down and play with the Mods in on low graphics and low resolution.
@MagicEmerald -Hi there!That sounded like fun.
@Simsophonique -I've still got my laptop and enjoy the game on it.Great update!
@Springfairy556 -Its one of those things that can happen without you knowing it or finding out right away and can begin to corrupt a save before you discover the child got taken.
@lanlyn -It was the default settings that were breaking things as the lots werre flagged as being allowed for progression and push to visit was true and it was enabled as rentable.I had to change those on every lot in town.It started when I was playing live and kept noticing the town was way too bustling for a new colonial settlement.I let it go for the first few days as it could've been busier with the ship's crew running around town to repair their ship and restock for the trip back home.
@plushtrap_107 -It's being done though there was so many lots with the broken settings because the default settings were still in place and that's not what I want or need in that town.
@meerkattime -Great update!
@Mikezumi -Great update!Thanks for the comment.I match my sims up to the best partner and that would be a sim they were childhood bff's with growing up if they were born in the town or immigrated there as a toddler.
@ZhakiraP -That's true even if you have slightly less than the over 700 files I've got and two of them are awsomemod and the config file with the automated school assignment disabled.Great update!
@ItsJanier -Great update!That crowd outside of the school used to happen in my Mod-free games and I also love having lots of children and kids in town though I have automated school assignmets disabled by one of my Mods so I don't get any of the school issues like the overcrowding,routing fails or sims attending the wrong schools.
Here's another Sunset Valley2 update below.
Here's another lot with broken settings before repairs.
Repairs to settings in progress.
Here's the same lot with repaired settings.
Here's another lot after the settings got repaired.
@bekkasan: Miss V's faces are indeed legendary ahaha.
@TadOlson: I don't like laptops but I hate my game right now all these deaths I don't want to play it.

Hmm.. I could be remembering wrong about the vacation thing too, haha.
@emorrill -- That is adorable! I'll have to play a family with a kitten now.
@bekkasan -- Yep! Just being off work is usually enough for me! Though I probably will do a day trip or two. I would like to go to our zoo. Last year they got a red panda, but when we went, he was off-exhibit. Ugh. (And it was pouring rain for part of it). So this year I'm gonna call first before I go! haha And remember an umbrella!
@Charlottesmom -- Black squirrels are cool.
Toddler Fun and Date Night
Part 2
The twins are playing in their twin bed and Derek and Kendall check on them. Jade reaches up wanting out and Derek picks her up. Kendall picks up Jamie as he is insistent on getting out of the bed too. They play with the kids and give them their nighttime bottles.
Jade's eyes are drifting shut as she finishes her bottle. Kendall rocks her to sleep enjoying holding the sweet little girl. She watches Derek with Jamie and knows he will make a good Dad some day when they are ready. Jamie is wide awake and tells Derek "Play!" Derek takes him downstairs so he won't wake his sister. He knows a delivery arrived during the afternoon and a new toy was set up in the play yard. He takes him out and sets him on one of the spring riders and Jamie's eyes get big and he grabs the handles and holds tightly and starts laughing with delight as the horse gallops away with him. Derek could tell Jamie was getting tired so after the ride they walked around the yard for a few minutes as he pats his back and walks with him to relax him. He carries him back upstairs and sits in the rocking chair to finish putting him to sleep. Derek has just become favorite Uncle in Jamie's life.
Jared and Alexandra enjoy their meal at the Bistro. As they leave he gives her a hug. "Lets go for a quick ride before going home."
Jared drives to one of their favorite places. It is deserted at this hour of the night so they enjoy being the only two there. They talk and kiss and kiss and talk, but, mostly kiss. "I've got one more place I want to go before we go home, is that ok with you? Alexandra nods, "I just texted Kendall and the twins are sleeping soundly, so yes, I'm good."
Jared drives out into the country past the large estates into the wooded area well beyond the city. He pulls up in front of the resort. It has been closed down for about a year now. He sits in the car for a few moments just looking at the rustic lodge. He helps Alexandra out of the car and they walk the property settling on a bench that looks out over the city in the distance. "I would love to buy this property and turn it into a home for our growing family. I wanted to see what you thought of it, whether you would like living this far away from the city. I've always been a city boy growing up in Roaring Heights and then moving to Bridgeport. I've been wanting to get away from living in the bright lights and would rather live where we can see the stars in the sky."
Alexandra snuggles closer to him resting her head on his shoulder. "I've loved this property since the first time you brought me here. I think it would be a perfect place to raise our children."
"I will put an option on it and then we can start saving the money to purchase and build on it. It may take awhile as it will not be cheap and I'd like the house built before we try to move in."
They cuddle together on the bench talking about their dreams for the future.
It is late and time to head home. They check on the toddlers who are sleeping soundly. Jared embraces Alexandra and takes her hand and leads her to their room.

@Mikezumi I admire your patience in sticking with the same save for so long and building up so many generations. Me, I'd get bored of my save loooong before then! Either that or the save would become corrupt, or simply too slow to play.
I'm glad you enjoyed my post
@TadOlson NRaas MasterController is a wonderful mod, isn't it? I love all the options it adds, it really lets me fine-tune the rules for my town and all the households in it.
Thank you for your comments, I really appreciate them :>
@LunBeauty Jessica's registered as a horsewoman? I guess she's looking for a stable income! Get it?
Man, I'd forgotten how quickly Sims can build up the athletic skill (especially the ones with the Athletic trait)... if only it worked that way in real life.
Heh, I bet that workout was all for naught after that hotdog eating contest! Then again, this is Sims... how do they maintain their perfect bodies?
Kilt Man, hahaha! Sounds like a weird superhero.
The one you have to reset the most? I bet there's one in every family... not just in the Sims, either
I dunno, I think those X's over Lucy's eyes have a really cool punk-rock vibe. Also reminds me of marshmello a little. She could've done without the nose and the whiskers though.
Homework returns with a vengeance! No day is safe, not even the holidays! Was she looking for her resume in there? I'M KIDDING LUCY, I'M KIDDING! I'M SURE YOU'LL GET THAT JOB! PUT THAT CHAIR DOWN! PLEASE!
Ooh, Cherry looks so cool with that white face!
No shame, Jessica, no shame at all. I'm in my PJs all the time at home! Such is student life.
Gosh, that burglar, getting his rear end kicked not once, but twice! Do I feel sorry for him? Hmmm.... nah. Crime never pays, dude!
First place in racing and jumping, wow! Star's a real star! Two lame jokes in the same post so far, I'm on a roll
Congrats on the prom queen and prom king titles!
What's with the suit, Errol? You've been wearing it since last night? Eww! Not gonna lie, if someone made that face at me, my reaction would probably be something like this, too: Good on Lucy for standing up to Errol! Dude seems like a first-class plum, and he doesn't even change his clothes
Aw, Grayson and Beverly make a cute couple! Were they Cosmos? Did she sell them? Nah, I'm kidding xD
Hahaha, I totally understand, those Zenyattas are a really good source of income! They pop up so often, and they sell for so much...
I never let my Sims touch any electrical appliance until they're at least level 5 or 6 in handiness! I'm just... scared of losing them.
Can't wait to see where Lucy and Torrance decide to go.
@polrbear Thanks for the warning about the hair! Skysims is very much a popular and trusted creator, I hope they got to know about this. Great that you managed to remove it from your game.
@PalmArrow That totally looks like it belongs on a tourist brochure. Wonderful shot :>
Sharks can smell blood... but hopefully they can't smell pee
Lovely new swimsuit for Oliana! "Good thing you just got promoted... or else you wouldn't have a ghost of a chance with my daughter!"
(Three lame jokes in a row! This must be a record or something
Jamming and dancing on the glistening white sand... another pic that belongs in a brochure. Man I want Sunlit Tides now.
I might be free from exams for now (and I've got a one-month winter break ahead), but I still do have some work to do. I'm trying (emphasis on trying) to do some as I type this. It's due Monday, and it involves writing lots of reflective stuff (aka stuff you pull out of your rear, for the sake of showing the teacher you came to class instead of slacking off). Always fun. Ugh. My siggy is a pretty accurate depiction of how I feel about this.
So tonight's feedback will be in bits and pieces, I'll be going page by page. Probably won't be Simming much tonight, if at all, but oh well. I guess I can stock up on CC and plan out what to do in my next Simming session.
Happy Simming all!
TS4 Sims in TS3
I needed to start up my Age and Grow mods, since this is a new game... for the Grow one, it's activated on a teen or child Sim. I figure, I'll hang out outside the school, lots of kids there! I waited for a while. No kids.
Realized then it was summer, and school was on summer vacation.
Also, just had to grab this one...
Jason went to the summer festival and was chatting with a new friend (Stardust I think), when I heard the whoo-hoo harp music. I looked around and around, and finally spotted the photo booth. You can see it in the background there, with the hearts flying.
I waited, and discovered it was the Martins enjoying a bit of a frolic.
But then it was also time for Jason to head to work at the diner.
In this!
Needless to say, he got a little work attire makeover.
@Silverofdreams30 Cute update. Love the picture fails
@TadOlson Thanks.
@OriginalMara Haven't been to the local zoo in a few years. That would be fun!
dag, strange work outfit!
Do you like the grow mods? I've never tried them.
The Cowboy and the Mermaid
@LunBeauty , Killian mooching money after woohoo made me laugh!
@Silverofdreams30 , I like the reactions to the selfie gone wrong!
@bekkasan , lovely update! I liked seeing the toddlers in their cute matching pajamas again!
@TinySpaceFox , I want to pick the cosmos flowers in @LunBeauty 's screenshot too!
Sunlit Tides really is a wonderful world AND it's the only store world that comes up on Daily Deal - I reccomend it wholeheartedly!
@OriginalMara , wow, what a work outfit! Well, maybe if he spends his whole day behind the counter and the customers never see his legs, he doesn't really have to wear trousers!
I hope they had a fantastic date evening.
@meerkattime Thank you
@TadOlson those mod files tends to accumulate
@bekkasan i like your kidsroom, very colorful and happy. I´m going to go out on a limb and say you like the color green.
@PalmArrow wonderful beach screens, I get hot just looking at them. Can a sim get killed by a shark?
@ZhakiraP , yes they can! I wouldn't allow it to happen in my game, so I've only seen it in other people's videos:
After the jam session on the beach, William spent the afternoon snorkeling. He didn't find any shells, but his scuba diving skill is close to level five now.
I used some of the money he unexpectedly got for recording a commercial to buy him a better quality TV and bed
His house is completely covered with bamboo on the inside - I used @mycami21 's bamboo patterns:
My sim's boyfriend finally proposed to her.
She moved out of her mom's house to move in with her fiance.
Celebrating their engagement.
Her boyfriend has a daughter from a previous marriage(mom died) and the little girl doesn't like Autumn.She tried to prank her, but it didn't work out the way she hoped.

The Squire still wants a girlfriend
He spots an attractive young girl playing with her dog
He braves himself to go over and talk to her
Of course it so happens that she has a boyfriend!
All the best girls seem to be taken!
