My Sim, Max Hackett just passed away and I felt it was a good time to tell the story of his life.
RIP Max Hackett.
PART ONE
Max started out as a eager young adult looking to reach for the stars. He quickly joined the Astronaut career and worked hard to advance. Soon after moving to Willow Creek he met a young lady named, Liberty Lee. They met at the museum and had instant chemistry. They also both worked for the same company. They started to date and fell instantly in love.
It wasn't long that he was proposing to her on the roof of his little shack of a house.
They quickly set a date to marry. They had a lovely ceremony and reception.
Married life suited them well. They spent most of their days taking selfies and holding pancakes while brushing their teeth!
When his birthday was approaching, Max and Liberty decided to start trying for a baby. It took a few tries before the good news arrived!
"I should really clean that sink." - Liberty
Max turned into an adult! Yay!
"Thanks for making your favorite cake for my birthday." - Max
Twins! What a shock! Max had a minor freak out realizing his family had doubled!
Max Hackett Jr. and Sam Hacket. They were easy going babies. They hardly fussed, but then Liberty was on top of their care. Liberty quit her job as a Technician to raise the twins. Max however kept working hard to advance at work.
The twins quickly aged up to children. They enjoyed going to the park. They played pirates and had picnics with Max.
Max couldn't keep his hands off Liberty. He was madly in love with her and their life together.
It wasn't long until she found out she was expecting another baby Hackett!
Max finally got promoted to Space Cadet! All that hard work is paying off!
Liberty enjoyed being a mom and wife. She liked setting pancakes on fire. Her pregnancy seemed to take forever!
"By the way, I am pregnant! Did you notice at all?" - Liberty
Max finally made it to Astronaut. He's out of this world! Get it? Get it? Hmm?
Before long Dottie was aged up and ready for school!
They heard about this great family vacation destination called Granite Falls. They grabbed some tents and a cooler and headed right up the mountain. There was roasted marshmallows, ghost stories, fishing, and general relaxing.
"Fish really gives me gas." - Liberty
"Umm who summoned this ghost?" - Max
"Max, we don't need any more kids!" - Liberty
The Park Ranger even introduced the Hackett Family to a bear.
"Let's become best friends before this bear eats us!" - Liberty
After their vacation, Max was right back to working out for work. Who knew Astronauts had to jog so much?
The twins birthday approached quickly too. First was Max Jr.
Then Sam.
After toning down his "rock star" look, Sam headed to the park to scope out girls. He saw Kamila Kreutzinger and fell head over heels in love right away. He ran over and chatted her up.
Kamila was easy to talk to and they cloud gazed for hours.
"Thanks for picking to lay in the dirt." - Kamila
Max, Max Jr., and Dottie met up with Sam at the park. Max was annoyed with how spacey he seemed.
"Were you bitten by the love bug or what?" - Dottie
The next day he invited Kamila over to the house.
She didn't reject his advances.
Aww, the first kiss!
Kamila got a makeover and Max Jr. tried to talk up Octavia Hoff but found her pretty boring.
Soon Max's birthday rolled back around. A party was thrown in his honor. Sam even got to invite Kamila over.
"Selfie Sunday bro." - Sam
"You raised these kids." - Max
"I don't know where you went wrong. Our other son has purple earrings?" - Max
"Just blow out your candles, dear." - Liberty
"Yes, no wrinkles!" - Max
Liberty joined the Author career.
"I love left over gumbo for breakfast!" - Liberty

Max decided to take the family on another weekend vacation. This time they rented a cabin with a pool. What a view, huh?
Kamila was invited too.
"What's over there?" - Dottie
"I grilled steaks, guys!" - Liberty
"We like to smell our food first." - Liberty
After dinner, Max went to light a campfire, but nearly burned himself instead.
"Close one!" - Max
Some father-son time.
Followed by some daddy-daughter time.
Sam romanced Kamila by asking her stargaze with him.
"Look, that one's Uranus!" - Sam
The next day, Max Jr. set off on a hiking adventure by himself. First he saw Malcom Landgraab taking a selfie.
A beautiful lake.
A creepy bear.
Then he saw a small cave.
He followed it to a remote spot deep in the woods. It had beautiful waterfalls.
He met a little old lady who lived up there all alone.
"Can we take a selfie?" - Max Jr.
"Can I get one on my phone too?" - Hermit Lady
On the way back to the cabin, Max Jr. must have rubbed up against some Fireleaf, because he started itching like crazy.
Meanwhile, Sam practiced on his guitar.
And built up his confidence to ask Kamila to be his girlfriend.
"Okay, as long as you don't take me camping ever again!" - Kamila
Sam agreed.
"Watch your hands, dear!" - Kamila
Later that night...
The family gathered to celebrate Liberty's birthday. Max baked her a beautiful cake.
"Way to age up, mom!" - Dottie
"You're just as gorgeous as the day we met!" - Max
"Let's take a selfie!" - Max
"Eww look at my wrinkles. Let's delete it." - Liberty
"Hey girl, I am going to try and seduce you right in front of my parents open bedroom door." - Sam
"I can't believe that worked!" - Sam
"It's our last day of this trip. Enjoy yourselves!" - Max
"How about a friendly competition, Dottie?" - Max
"Sure, dad." - Dottie
"Well this one is no good." - Max
"Or this one." - Max
"Don't worry, I caught dinner!" - Dottie
"This competition is over." - Max
"I missed you so much Mr. Huggles! So glad to be home!" - Dottie
"One last selfie before you go home!" - Sam
"Thanks for the vacation, dad. Best one yet!" - Dottie
Back home the kids were studying.
Exercising.
Playing video games.
Then Dottie's birthday finally came around.
After her much needed makeover!
One day Max Jr. saw this cute girl walk by so he ran up to talk to her.
Her name was Erin Velasco but she wasn't into him.
Dottie spent time watching tv with Max and Liberty.
"I love the cooking channel!" - Dottie
"We've built an amazing life together, dear." - Liberty
A few days later was the twins turn to celebrate young adulthood.
First was Max Jr.
"I'm exactly the same." - Max Jr.
The, Sam's turn.
"Me too." - Sam
"Let's take a selfie, Dottie." - Max Jr.
"Hey ladies, free tickets to the gun show." - Max Jr.
Meanwhile, Sam got to work proposing to Kamila.
"Will you spend your life with me?" - Sam
"Well..." - Kamila
"I... Uhh..."- Kamila
"Yup!" - Kamila
"Oh thank goodness!" - Sam
"I was just messing with you!" - Kamila
Little known fact: A hot dog crossing your path makes for a lucky marriage!
Mother of the groom.
Found this classy lady waiting for the ceremony to start.
Another beautiful ceremony!
On to the reception.
Look who decided to chat up Max Jr.
"We should renew our vows!"- Max
The party is winding down.
Someone had to pee really bad.
The next day Max and Liberty enjoy a quiet early morning breakfast together.
"Leftover omelettes again?" - Liberty
Max Jr. and Dottie went to the park to try and find Max Jr. a lady friend, but no such luck. They played chess instead.
"What's over there?" - Dottie
Then they head over to the gym in Oasis Springs looking for Max Jr.'s future girlfriend. No luck there either so they workout.
"She might be single!?" - Dottie
Max Jr. had to go to work so Dottie headed home. Max Jr. arrives home just in time to hear the sad news.
"Please don't take him yet. I don't know how to live without him!" - Liberty
But Grim wouldn't listen.
Max Jr. heard the news next.
Then Sam.
And finally Dottie.
Now the family is left to pick up the pieces.
RIP Max!
