    I just realized I have a great home/household for this contest, but I uploaded them in Mid-March. They were not part of a contest, but my "gift". Can I still enter them? Ifin not, I have an another idea.

    Edit: I would need to upload the home/household together, I had uploaded the three all separate.

    That is fine just as long as it was not entered into another contest :) House and Household must be together.

    I also noticed there aren't too many fall entries and wanted to make one! So here it is:

    2nd entry

    Username: ACarron0514

    Link To Entry: http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=8152318

    This classic 3 bedroom, 3 bathroom Colonial House is the perfect home for hosting a holiday, and that's exactly what Autumn Day is ready to do. A homemaker whose lifetime wish is to learn every recipe, she has decorated this house with every available fall accessory to get ready to host the best Thanksgiving ever! Complete with a pumpkin patch in the backyard.

    Season: Fall

    Holiday, if any (Christmas, Halloween etc): Thanksgiving

    House Name: Thanksgiving House
    Lot Size: 30 x 30
    House Price: $180,309
    House Photos:

    The Dining Room: Ready for Autumn to serve a Thanksgiving feast!
    screenshot_original.jpg

    Household Name: Day
    Household Members: Autumn, Christopher, Lea, Blake, Aria, and Pumpkin the dog
    Household Bio: The Day family seems like the perfect all American family - at least from the outside. Autumn Day, determined to be the next Martha Stewart, wants to host the perfect Thanksgiving. Her lifetime goal is to learn every recipe, and she just wants her family to appreciate all the effort she puts into making a perfect home. Her husband, Christopher, is a genius bookworm who dreams of becoming a famous author. Christopher and Autumn are family oriented, and have tried to give their children every advantage in life by sending them to the best prep schools. However, because they have been focusing so much on their own dreams, they haven't noticed some issues with their teenage children. Queen Bee of her prep school, Lea has become quite a snob. The middle child, Blake, often acts inappropriate since he's so desperate for attention from his parents. Will Christopher and Lea be able to achieve their dreams while also properly raising their children?

    Household Photos:

    NOTE: I realized I uploaded the wrong version of this lot (one that hadn't been play tested). I edited this post to correct the exchange link. There were just a few minor changes. Sorry about that!
