    @soocoolsim , Oh my gosh Paula, your story about Jenny and Kenyon's romance was hilarious. That is so awesome that you hooked those two up, and your story about them was really funny. Loved it, and thanks so much for sharing it. What is their baby's name, by the way?

    Hi Sandy, a little late responding (OK a lot late, lol) but his name is Stanley. Not a baby anymore... has progressed to YA status. Kenyon and Jenny are still happily married (lots of romantic wishes keep coming up) and they now have 4 children. Stanley, then twins (surprise) Corey & Analisa and a long time after little Sophie. Have been trying to work on my current build and not get distracted with this family... but they are such fun. I had to finally move them out of your renovated house even after I added an extension.

    Some pics for you below of them growing up.
    A. Kenyon chatting with Stanley (left) and Corey (right) as children
    B. Analisa (twin of Corey)
    C. Stanley as a sulky teen
    D. L-R: Analisa, Stanley and Corey doing their homework as teens
    E. Stanley grown into a charming and good looking YA
    F. Analisa as teen
    G. Corey as a teen

    The twins are now YAs. Can post some pics of them and Sophie later if you like.

    Oh my gosh Paula, I love it! Thanks so much for sharing the story and pics of them growing up. Corey looks a lot like Kenyon! And yes, Stanley is a very attractive YA. It still strikes me funny that you hooked up our two sims, lol.

    So, funny thing. Yesterday I actually booted up my game for the first time since November. :lol: So, it's *possible* I'll have an entry, if I have time over the next few days to really play around. And if my muse decides to cooperate with me, of course. ;) But, it's also possible I won't get to it in time. And if that's the case, I'll just lurk and enjoy all the pretties everyone else made!

    @AIRIS6962 - if you need to add to the entry that you've posted, that's perfectly fine. No new entries unfortunately.

    If it's a new entry, would still love to see it though ❤

    Thank you for hosting this contest @aricarai and all your efforts towards making this a success. This was fun and it was pretty great seeing the interest it generated in the community. Thanks also to LadyEmillye and Illusie as helpers/judges, to ADWilson and Lucyena as sponsors, and to any other contributors in the background.

    While I didn't have time to work on the full reno it was cool that this contest spurred me to get back into game play. Now I just need to stop since it can be addictive, lol. I'm good with receiving feedback on my entries... always something to learn or improve upon :smiley:

    Thank you, dear! <3
    It´s finished now, more or less LOL

    I was making a reno in TS4. I made a Pre-Fabulous version in TS4 in fact. This would be my surprise out of contest, but RL takes their own decisions and I had no time.

    I´ve enjoy a lot here, meeting old and new friends who makes me feel like home. I adore you all and your wonderful creativity <3

    Free feel to make a feedback to me. I will received with my open mind.

    Happy weekend! :kissing_heart:

    Out of contest, here you are my sim:

    John Walters (The Winter Writer) No CC By AIRIS6962
    From a young age, John has had a dream: to be a Professional Author. He is quite a smart, quirky little thing that loves to cook and when not in the kitchen, can be found curled up somewhere cosy with the latest romance or science-fiction novel listening to soothing tunes. He loves reading and needs to be surrounded by books. He enjoys sitting in the living room, near the burning fireplace and reading a good book while listen to classical music on his old record player at the end of a Winter day.
