The Driftwoods Continued!
I'm already taking a look at the rules. I haven't tried this aspiration before so it should be fun. Also, I never completed the mysims collection. I hope it is not too hard.

I've made a good start with Natasha. Still lawn living but she's doing a lot of collecting and has started a garden for the botanical aspiration. She's also moved in her friend Masato Ishikawa. They're just friends at the moment but something might develop, lol.
Great that you made a good start! That sounds promissing you moved in a friend for her. I hope something does develop!
Showcase | NSBC story
They had some awkward moments but things seem to go well now. She keeps calling him to go on dates.
Showcase | NSBC story
Natasha and Masato became a couple and now have twin boys - Owen and Oliver. They also have a basic house. Natasha is half-way through the renaissance aspiration and is doing well with her garden. I'm even doing well with the My Sims Trophies! I've never completed that collection so I'm hoping to do so now.
Aron is still doing lawn living and just bought a shower. Only 2 My sims Trophies so far. When he has enough money he will buy a double bed and ask Stephanie to marry him. But still a bit of saving to do!
Congrats on the twins!! It sounds like you are doing great! Which other aspiration are you going to try to complete? Do any of your sims have a job? I never completed that collection either. The only one I have completed before is the one of the postcards.
