    Ah... Hope it works soon for you. Not sure how to help...


    @icrawbeans - I'm off to read your story. And I'm not sure how to help with blogspot though I know people do have trouble with the site. (Wordpress is a bit more userfriendly thankfully) And I wish I could help.

    Nevermind...I am changing my blogs name to
    Growing away from the family tree since I like that title and I am not doing Maylin's anymore.

    Why, thank ye kindly, ma'am. I do so reckon them there tomaters will have had enough of the Buckwheats after Billy Bob is done with them. Them Killer Tomaters never should have Attacked the Buckwheat Family!

    I started this challenge a few days ago, but I had to delete all of my saved games and CC because of a technical problem. Now that everything is fixed, I'm going to be starting again.

    My founder will be Bobby Joe Jenkins (a girl!).

    I'm looking up some good CC for her right now, and I will have the first chapter up tonight probably.

    ^_^

    I can't wait to read about her either. I know a Bobby who is a girl. Laughs.

    >> For those voting, Ambrosia is a ghost baby who in CAS is blue. O,o" Best of both.

    Edit: Also Poppy looks very pretty. I will be adding them to the exchange. Such a cute bunch of kids. Poor Colten's nose though isn't really there...

    I will try again later to post. Joseph finally got married, just a few days before his birthday to Ruby Broke (it was *on* her birthday). Not the best match for him, but he was running out of time and options.

    Ruby is an adult.
    Traits: Flirty, Great Kisser, Good, Party Animal, Easily Impressed
    Likes Electronica, pancakes, and yellow

    I think Joseph is in trouble cause she's a heartbreaker...this does not bode well...

    (I am still trying to figure out how to post but will work on it later)

    Question, Do we have to keep the same last name throughout the challenge? or if we have a female heir can she take her husband's last name?

    OMG! So after I posted my update today, I tried going back to a really old save, and was actually able to overcome the problem I was having. It's when Puck was a child and Finn was a toddler, and Will wasn't born yet, but at least I get to keep on with all the back genetics and rewards I've earned. I had to go and change my latest chapter, because the Will that was born in this new game looks completely different from the old Will...

    @The new people- welcome to the challange!

    @Yetitaz - I love the way you tell your story! Are you going to change the way they speak every generation?

    @MeshiNina- I love the name Bobby for a girl, I had a baby sitter all growing up with the name so i'm quite fond of it.

    @TUF- loved your latest really glad you named the ghost baby Ambrosia mwahahah! I had to vote for her of course! And the fact that her skin would be blue makes her that much better =D

    @Styx- O how I love Ray! Those silly Evil sims trying to undermind Charities. And btw love the name Will! It's one of the best, and great for a generation four heir! And i'm way happy you got your genetics back!

    Most definitely. In fact, I already envision Generation 2 detesting the way Billy Bob talks. Be interesting to see if Gen 2 really can become enemies with Gen 1.

    Joseph and Ruby Farmer would like to announce the birth of their twin sons Elijah and Joey. Joey is Disciplined and Perceptive, and Elijah Loves the Outdoors and is Easily Impressed. Ruby is pregnant again hopefully with a girl.

    Joseph has met all the main objectives for Generation 1 except the have a boy *and* a girl, and he's halfway on that one. I'm going to work on the optional objectives while the kids grow up with the exception of the marry a sim with a green thumb or loves the outdoors trait as I hate to break up families...though if I fulfill Ruby's lifetime wish who knows what could happen.

    Wow, twins right off the bat! Did you have the fertility treatment reward, or were they natural? Love their names.

    no fertility reward for that pregnancy, however Ruby did listen to kids music and read both pregnancy books which I think helps.

    Ergh!!!! I hate Sunset Valley. For several reasons: one it's super slow to load, two it's ugly, three the sims are ugly!, four it bores me.

    So! I decided to move the Flamels, but i'm not sure of which Town to download them and plop them into, any suggestions would be greatly welcomed! A pretty but simple and fun neighborhood would be cool :)

    Farmer Family Update:

    Elijah and Joey are now toddlers! Elijah a carbon copy of Joseph, Joey a carbon copy of Ruby.

    And announcing the birth of Daniel Farmer! Ok so not a girl...but bah...will keep trying, Joseph and Ruby aren't getting any younger. Daniel is brave and athletic by the way.
