    The Weatherbys look a very nice family! @leashahampton :) The Spring pastel colour of their clothing and the floral pattern looks very pretty and has Springtime sunshine. It is very special photos that you have posted of them enjoying doing things as a family <3 The Spring flowers graphics on the pictures look great!

    Notes about entry: I had a San Myshuno Hipster family in mind who looked for an old house in the suburbs to fix up. Out came a victorian mansion in the middle of fall, right before harvestfest and spookday with a modern interior and all the colors of an idian summer.

    @jhgkjhgkjh You’ve outdone yourself yet again. That is a really cute updated Victorian with lots of Seasons build items.

    The architectural exterior design of Legends of Fall looks so very nice! @jhgkjhgkjh :) Very nice roofing and use of the spandrels ! The Autumn themed decorations on the exterior add a very nice look to the home. The white blossom tree looks nice and the pumpkins are great Autumn touches in the front garden. Sims will enjoy sitting and resting under the Autumn tree on the sofa. Very nice Autumn themed furnishing of the interior! The Autumn colour scheme looks nice. Very nice living room area for Sims to enjoy sitting chatting on the sofas near the fire, or read a book. They will have fun playing card games and enjoy playing or listening to piano music. The Autumn photos are special touches on the wall. Very nice light filled windows glasshouse dining area! The Sims will enjoy the sunlight coming in onto them whilst eating their meals at the table. The Autumn floor rug looks nice under the table. The Autumn coloured ceiling lights used in the rooms in the home look very nice. The kids paintings, dog calendar, and bulletin board are homely on the wall. Very nice kitchen nook! The brick wall texture gives a great look to the area, and the fruit bowl, mugs set, hanging herbs and wall knives are great kitchen touches. Very nice sunny greenhouse! Sims will enjoy swimming in the pool. The fish water fountains look nice there. Very nice brown colour scheme of the master bedroom. It looks nice the way that the bed is angled into the corner nook, and the curtain look great placed on the corner windows. The fireplace will keep the room warm. The Autumn leaf painting is nice on the fireplace wall.
    It is a very nice family home for Autumn! :)

    @JojoMOMSTER Thank you so much! And @rosemow thank you, too for the lovely review of my build!

    It was so much fun to create. Oh I love a good old victorian house!: This time I wanted to try something new for the interior and it worked better out than I anticipated.
    I guess in real life, with the glass roof in the dining area you would definitly need air condition. In summer you would feel like being inside a slow cooker. :)

    @jhgkjhgkjh you’re welcome sweetie. I think IRL if you had a dining room like that you would want strategically placed deciduous shade trees in summer then when the trees are bare in winter you could squeeze out every bit of warmth and daylight.

    You are so right! And with seasons... this brings on a very new idea. :) Thanks, @JojoMOMSTER, for this beautiful inspiration!

    The Weatherbys in Spring is a very nice Tuder style home! @asap24 :) Very nice design of the exterior! The curved roofing front entrance looks very nice, and the greenery on the exterior adds a nice look to the home. The floral arch gate, the wreath over the front door, and the cherry blossom tree look very Springtime pretty! Nice art nook area for sims to enjoy painting outdoors in the sunshine on the easel. The greenery topped fencing looks nice bordering the lot. Very nice furnishing of the interior of the home! The pastel pink, green, blue and yellow colours of the walls in the rooms looks very nice! Very nice living room areas for Sims to enjoy sitting resting in the sunny yellow seating watching tv or reading a book. They will enjoy sitting on the colourful patterned stools warming up near the fire. The fish tank is a nice touch in the room. Sims will have fun playing football. Very nice design of the kitchen. The wall panelling looks very nice. It is great that there is an island work bench counter. The floral wreath and hanging basket look pretty in the room. Very pretty pink colour scheme of the girls bedroom! The pink teddy there, bunnies rug and the animal pictures on the wall are cute! The colourful shells are a nice touch on the bathroom wall. The green colour scheme of the master bedroom looks very calming and natural. The plants are a nice touch on the table at the foot of the bed.
    It is a very nice Springtime themed family home! :)

    Thanks @coolsim9999999 I'm glad I didn't install seasons pack while I was building my house for Spring and now I have installed seasons and I didnt know when you pick Spring for your world all the plants and trees look dead when do you see the beautiful trees and flowers again this is not good for building if your in the wrong season I'm guessing you have to play it out until your in the season that you want to build for a particular season to build in :/

    Hi @Chips46. I started my main family in spring too, and I was so sad at first because they have a few pink cherry trees and some other trees, which all looked dead :'( ! It was a little spooky :o! Anyway, about halfway through spring, the leaves start to come back a good amount. I played a 7 day season, and leaves began to come back on the second day.

    If I'm in the wrong season, I just get someone up to level 10 handiness (with the code), and I have them complete nerd brain with the complete current milestone code, and then have you Sim insta-upgrade the weather machine (you can buy it in build mode and upgrade it). Then, have you Sim advance season, and also select clear skies, and if it was just raining before you Sim fixed it, then, just wait a few Sim hours for the mud puddles to dry up. Turn on the thermostat to warmer or cooler, depending on the season, and keep your Sim busy --- practice singing (with the volume off, until it's how you want it to look outside, and so, they don't touch all the debug stuff.)

    If you don't want to use cheats or the weather machine, I guess you'll just have to wait it out :p! You can still change the time of day in build mode to get the lighting you want.

    You can use google to get the codes.

    Sometimes I miss how just starting the game, and having the right weather, but I love the items from the Seasons pack, and it's fun to watch the weather happen B)! So, I'm happy I got it :D!
