    @debjameswhite - I love the big update there was so much excitement in it and some things that definitely made me sad. I'm sad that we had to say goodbye so soon in the update but John in his new home make me happy. I love the view from that lot it's absolutely amazing! Sarah makes a beautiful bride as well, everyone looked so happy at the wedding ♥ Ohh wow is that the venue I built for the market? (if so I am honored that you used it). Congrats on the nooboos too! I can't wait to see how they age up.

    @Meeshelby - Hi! You are definitely missed here as well :)
    Hi @yunanesca

    Hello everyone!!! It's so close to pack day and I am getting more and more excited about it as time passes! Will any of you be getting the pack?

    What do you guys think of having the new world be added into the challenge as well? Except this time instead of bulldozing all the lots in the world you could fix up the ones that are already placed down? Maybe like a fixer-upper section or something to that effect? I am looking to revamp the challenge a bit so let me know what you guys think? @debjameswhite @Francisca464 @JordanNicoleJJ @Tellex @Heckstress17 (just tagging some of the ones I haven't seen/heard from in a while)

    I have the pack pre-ordered. I'm very excited for it! As for your ideas of adding the new world and having a fixer-upper section, I think that is an awesome idea! I like it very much. :smiley: Sorry I've been so quiet. I have been lurking just not up to commenting much. Awesome updates I'm seeing. Hello to everyone I haven't seen in a while. <3

    @OJenn I would love for the new world to be next! I thought I was finally going to Windenburg but I already know I want to play in the new world! I like the idea of fixing up the houses that are there. Do you still have some of the ideas I had suggested before as well? I had wanted to go with some of those too. Also I've enjoyed picking something that every heir needs to have to be the heir. I picked eyes after a few generations of my family, but it could be a trait too.

    I was definitely thinking Del Sol Valley should be next under the optional worlds! I am anxious to play as well but I have to update you guys on where I am currently haha. Did you message me the ideas here or on Origin? I know Origin won't save old messages but I can take a look through my messages here and see. I have also been strongly considering making this a 5 generation challenge since there are so many worlds now. I really want people to get a chance to make it to all of them ♥

    What are you thoughts on this everyone?

    Edited To Add: Or maybe a Fixer Upper version of this challenge that is 5 gens per world. That way this challenge is more or a standalone?

    A five generation challenge sounds great.
    A fixer-upper/five generation challenge also sounds great.
    I know that's not much help but that's my two cents on the matter. xD

    @OJenn I went looking for part of what we were talking about and found this:

    what would you think if, instead of moving each heir out permanently, I chose one lot to be the "Family" lot and started my founders there. Then I would move the heirs out to start, build a house but then when the parents died, I would move the heirs back to the family lot and do some rebuilding each generation? I was thinking about using that idea for a challenge of my own but thought it might be a fun twist on our challenge since we've gone through everything almost!

    I think this would actually work well with the fixer upper challenge. Start them out in the biggest lot but have each heir fix one of the houses in the world. Then you can keep the things your different generations earn :)

    I haven’t played for a bit, but before I jumped back in I remembered I had some pictures I want to share so I can start fresh!

    Chapter 86: Strange Grandpa

    Early one morning, Gabe came by to visit and was the first one to see Erich. He’s a really hot Grandpa!
    C3AuI.png

    I don’t know why…maybe it’s from being abducted by aliens so many times?
    C3Ayp.png

    Whatever the reason was, he picked up Erich and he ran far away from the house.
    C3AAT.png

    He deposited him right in front of a sleeping stray.
    C3ABl.png

    Luckily, John had seen his father leaving with Erich and followed. He fell in love with the dog.
    C3AC1.png

    Meanwhile, wild Erich decided to streak!
    C3ACL.png

    That was OK cause John was falling in love with another stray.
    C3ADm.png

    John decided they should have a picnic and while he cooked, the white dog decided to show his appreciation.
    C3AEp.png

    By the time they got home, both dogs needed baths.
    C3AET.png

    A very happy family, but with two green eyed children, not quite complete.
    C3AFK.png

    Time goes so fast. One day Sara is telling John she’s pregnant.
    C3AGP.png

    Then suddenly it’s baby time! (My game said she was pregnant with twins, but only one showed up!)
    C3AIf.png

    Mom may be a party animal, but she still makes time to take care of her little ones.
    C3AJS.png

    Her parties are always the tal of the town!

    Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I've been trying to play when I can but that never seems to happy these days. It's been a crazy year for me. And the kiddos. Moved twice within 6 months, now going into my busy time for work I'll be working 6 days a week. Hopefully I'll be able to get some play time soon, and I'm hoping to get, get famous soon.

    Happy belated Turkey day everyone, I hope you all had days filled with family and food - or friends and food. This week has been a trial for me as I recently lost my job. The next month is looking scary but I am hopeful things will turn out for the best in the end.

    @Debjameswhite - Gabe is a pretty darn good looking grandpa, I have to agree with you there! Congrats on the new nooboo as well as the new furbaby, it always warms my heart to see sims adopt strays giving them a second chance ♥

    I will be working on the main page write up this weekend so keep an eye out there and definitely post any critiques you might have as I update things.

    @yunanesca - Ohh a Tumblr for me to check out, that's exciting! I too love the storytelling aspect of The Sims :wink:

    @blondiebabe923 - The holidays are such a busy time, aren't they? I am glad to see you popping in nonetheless! I have been having an absolute blast with Get Famous. The interactions with sims as well as the build/by items are really fantastic.

    Chapter 87: The Price of Love

    This update starts off with a sad note regarding Diamond. Sometimes when you adopt an older pet you don’t have them in your life as long as you’d like. Honestly, you never have any of them in your life as long as you’d like.
    C76yq.png

    He passed in the middle of the night and his family found him the next morning.
    C76Bc.png

    Then poor Shiloh started not feeling well. Luckily, John can diagnose him right at home.
    C76CG.png

    At work, John has spent a lot of time inspiring his staff. Unfortunately, one of his vets just passed away.
    C76Fk.png

    The kids are all kids now and Aiden likes to go with Dad to work when he doesn’t have school.
    C76H6.png

    He does his homework first and John makes some time to help him.
    C76IE.png

    Sarah redecorated her little nook with a winter theme.
    C76UD.png

    John went home to visit his parents.
    C76LH.png
    C76M9.png

    Then the family went to dinner together. It was the first time they all went as a big family. John is really excited by his food. Sarah’s mom didn’t make it because she’s pregnant and wasn’t feeling well! Pregnant!!
    C76Nl.png

    Gabe and Brooke still in love.
    C76Q0.png

    At home it’s dinner time. For some reason Erich doesn’t want to sit at the table.

    @OJenn - I'm looking at the front page now, the first thought that crossed my mind was 'Looks awesome!'. The second one got me excited. Fixer Upper edition! Weeeee <3

    1. A spelling edit is needed here: "All homes must maintain their existing walls. Additions are allowed but do no take down any existing walls."
    2. In the list of worlds, is it Windenburg, with an n? I don't know for sure. Figured I'd mention it just in case.
