Loving the story so far. Thanks for sharing, I hadn't heard of the challenge before. I'm going to try it once I'm done with my current legacy family.

The house you built is great. I'm not really a builder so I'm always checking out other people's architecture.

Can't wait to see what else happens!

Thanks! I'm an impatient builder, ha! I'd really like to make it more modern but she's too poor right now. Perhaps simple and classic is the way to go. The roof slope gives it character, though.

Eva's First Good Friend

Oh, my! Now that's a garden! And I can tell you are having a blast playing! And I like reading about weird things you've stumbled upon in the game. I also love the way you set up your blog. You're obviously a long time simmer! I need to check out your legacy next! And thank you for linking to my story in your blog list. I am going to be doing a ton of updating on my blog this weekend so I'll return the favor and add you! I look forward to reading more from you! Your blog is very readable, the font is lovely, and even with the dark background (which I don't usually prefer- my old lady eyes lol ) I found it works really well! Great job!

Awww, thanks! That's really sweet of you! I super love your town story! I'm a little behind (as with the rest of those blogs) but I'll get there soon. When I first set up the blog, I thought the background was grey (don't ask me why, haha) but it turns out it was black! I think I'll leave it as is for now.

I was majorly procrastinating posting this next chapter. I was so tired that I didn't even play yesterday. Oh well!

Moving in and Little Feet

Meggles

There's a new addition to the household!

Welcome, Ben!

RachelRosebud

I love the name Ben. That's scary about the baby disappearing and not coming home after daycare I wonder if his unexpected red hair has to do with it, or maybe it's because the Mother has pink hair. I think babies can't inherit unnaturally colored hair

Edit: ok, too many frownies, lol. Here's a happy one. great update!

Meggles

@RachelRosebud, I was actually like "Oh, Ben is the second letter in the alphabet after EVA ("Ayyyy-vah") - I can do an alphabet legacy, too!" But, DUH. Eva does not start with A. Dooooi.

Eva's baby is sooo cute. I just bought the game yesterday and have not had a baby yet so this is really exciting to see. I love ISBI's and will keep an eye on this. I've never done one myself though and can't even imagine the pain it must be to leave everyone else on their own lol

@Reina, Have you had a baby yet?! Recently I downloaded a mod for cuter default baby clothes. I'll have to link it later.

Also, here's a little update with pictures of the house. It's been in my drafts for aaaaages!


ETA: I uploaded pictures for another chapter at the same time but never got to writing the post so there could be an actual update this afternoon!

Baby No. 2 Incoming!

Stay tuned - I'm about to do another update, whaaat!

Nicely done. I've just started my own ISBI challenge so I'm definitely interested in seeing how others are doing theirs.

Meggles

Sorry for all the bumps without an actual update! My legacy is almost done so I hope to come back to the ISBI soon.

CathyTea

How did I miss your ISBI? I didn't even know you were doing one! I want to invent a new type of ISBI that avoids appointments with Grim somehow... maybe the Space ISBI... before the elder birthday, the TH and anyone else near elderhood rockets into space and lands on a planet where "We're not getting any older...."

I'm still sad because Exra, the founder TH in @Seraphael 's TS3 ISBI just has his final meeting with Grim...

Meggles

@CathyTea That's okay! It's a fun challenge but I think I got stuck around the time of my first blogging hiatus, haha! I actually forgot Bray died, oops... (POOR ASH FAMILY!! I'll come back to you!)

I like this Space ISBI idea! Time moves differently than it does on Earth - like in Interstellar (which I never saw but read the synopsis of).

Meggles

Guess what! I opened this save and have a draft somewhat written! I just have to upload my screenshots.
