After the boys had finished woohooing and before Jared could start working out, I called the family to Amery's birthday.
Terrible hair and clothes but I can already see how beautiful he is!
Ooh la la!
When they were done with the cake, I had Amery take care of Drew's needs. He was hungry for food and attention.
I found the boys near the hot tub. Perhaps a woohoo that didn't pan out. Jared was just relaxing and Jensen played his guitar nearby.
Mikezumi had a wish to skinny dip so I let her. That made Jensen stop playing his guitar!
After Jensen reacted to Mikezumi's skinny dipping I saw him head inside and pick up Drew. He held him, doing nothing, for a few minutes.
But then he played with him before dumping him on the front step
Poor Amery. He's athletic but hasn't any skill points yet and Jared has a mean throw!
After the family had gone to bed I found the boys getting ready for woohoo.
A look at Amery in CAS. He looks much nicer in game than in CAS.
Beckah had a wish to fish before 6am.
Jared woke around 5.30 and went to read in Mikezumi's room. Lucky Mikezumi! He was still there when she woke at 6
Jensen woke a little after Jared but, instead of bothering him, had a shower in the backyard.
Mikezumi got Drew up and ready for his last day as toddler
Amery woke up in a mood! Cancelled! LOL
His mood swing was gone before he got to the breakfast table
I had a little chuckle when I saw both Jared and Mikezumi were looking lovingly at Chance.
There were only a few plants in the garden and none needed watering. I had Amery plant a few seeds to trigger the hidden gardening skill from Scouts.
Beckah had a wish to catch a 50kg fish. She didn't manage to get that one before school but she rolled one to catch a record sized piranha just as she snagged her first one which I managed to lock in before it cleared the water She reached level 6 before the school bus came
Chance had a wish to make a sleeping potion which was locked in from the previous day when he leveled up in logic.
After planting the seeds, I found Amery chilling in the sand pit.
The boys kindly made Mikezumi's bed
Drew amused himself while everyone else was busy
Although Stein is not part of the family I had to take a pic when I saw from his tag that he was teaching his son how to talk at the park I had been looking around the town because Mikezumi wanted to meet someone new.
After the kids had gone to school and Mikezumi had finished the gardening I sent her to the computer to sign Amery up for an after school class. I discovered that it was broken so she fixed it first.
I decided to age up Drew earlier rather than later so he would have more of the day to play and start working on his wishes and skills.
Not likely!
Much better!
The boys were busy in the bathroom while Drew was having his birthday
I sent him out to Mikezumi to fill his social bar They hugged several times during their chat
I saw another §40 deducted from the family funds!
I sent Drew to learn the fishing skill and Mikezumi finished her sculpture. I sold it, of course, because who wants splinters in their butt cheeks?
Mikezumi still had her wish to meet someone new and everyone was at work. When I saw Emma at home, I quickly opened her home with MC and teleported Mikezumi there to meet her They exchanged kitchen secrets and Mikezumi learned a new recipe.
I checked back at home and the boys were doing their own thing.
Drew rolled a wish to learn the logic skill while fishing and, since Jared was already playing, I had him join him
A little later in the afternoon, I saw Drew heading to Jensen for a chat. The irresistible trait at work! He had interrupted Jensen's guitar playing but I was okay with it since Jensen mastered the skill a little earlier
When Amery aged up, Mikezumi rolled a wish to teach him how to drive. Since she was only reading, I decided she could do it after he finished his homework.
To help Jared get a little closer to mastering the athletic skill, I had Drew ask him for a game of catch.
After a while I took pity on him and let him talk to Jared instead.
It didn't last long because Jensen came out for some time with Jared
Beckah and Chance got home late because of Scouts and did their homework together.
Amery learned to drive in one go and when I got the popup that he had got his licence they were close to home but somehow ended up by the Bistro.
They got home in time for dinner
Jared broke the dishwasher. When I uploaded this pic I remembered that Mikezumi hadn't fixed it before bed. I might have to fix it with MC before she wakes up
Amery learned how to make ratatouille
The boys had another shower
Poor Drew was trying to chat with Jensen but didn't stand a chance. Amery had just got his first belt and was heading to the sand pit. Mikezumi was working on a stone sculpture for an opportunity. Chance was dancing in the house. Beckah, not in pic, was chatting with a friend because she had a wish to become best friends and I wanted to speed it along a little.
Because Amery rolled a wish to spar with someone when he got his first belt, I had Mikezumi start learning MA. She's a good Caretaker
Drew had a wish to fish before 6am. I let him catch one fish before sending him back to bed.
While Drew was fishing, his dads woke up. It was about 4.30.
Jensen got up a moment earlier than Jared and stepped outside. Jared followed him for a flirt
Flirting led to hot tub woohoo
They stayed in the hot tub until Mikezumi called the family to breakfast.
Drew woke with a wish to bake something.
Beckah didn't have a waking wish but she rolled a wish to play catch with Jared over breakfast.
Amery rolled a wish to play catch with Chance over breakfast.
Chance's waking wish was to catch a bug. After he had played catch with Amery for a while, I teleported him to a bug spawner.
When I got the camera back to the house, I found Jensen and Drew sharing a joke
I thought that Jared was being gentle because Beckah was a girl
But his next throw was not so kind
After the kids left for school, I found Jensen playing his guitar and Jared sitting on the couch about to watch TV.
It didn't last long!
And the boys were in the hot tub once again!
Amery had a field trip to the Theatre. Gwendolyn Svard (nee Goode) was in charge. The teen girl is Trinity Svard. Her mother is currently married to Stefan Svard so she is a Svard only by marriage.
Trinity is the only other teen in town. She and Amery are the oldest kids. A few more kids will be aging up later in the day. Because I knew that Trinity would be Amery's partner I gave her the clumsy trait because I think it is cute. I missed it, but she tripped getting out of the bus
After the boys had been in the hot tub for a couple of hours, I had Mikezumi rescue them before they turned into prunes by interacting with them.
I checked the fridge and the family were running out of steak, burgers, eggs and cheese so I sent Mikezumi to the community garden.
When I zoomed back to the house it took me a moment to find the boys
Amery still doesn't like homework
When he finished his homework he finally got his wish to spar with someone
Given her advanced age, I am not surprised that Mikezumi lost but she did get one hit in Both got their next belt
The kids got home late because of Scouts. Mikezumi is cooking dinner in the background. She got one of the cooking challenges while preparing the meal. I can't remember which one but I think it means she will cook faster now.
I thought it was adorable when Chance thanked her for cooking
As soon as she finished eating, Mikezumi got a text that Jared Frio's party was about to begin
Jared and Estrella's 3 sons were there
When Chance finished his dinner I sent him also. He is a party animal
Estrella came home and went straight for woohoo. No wonder they have 3 kids already! LOL
I noticed that Chance had a wish to be best friends with this boy locked in so I had them spend some time together
Since there were kids at the party, I decided to send Amery, Beckah and Drew as well.
Mikezumi rolled a wish to take a photo with a friend.
LOL
Connor arrived after a little later
It had been a while since I had checked on the boys. They were woohooing in the hot tub
I left them to it and checked back on the family.
What is it with sims feeling the need to tutor kids?
When I was sending the family home, I remembered that Prom was coming up so I teleported Amery to Trinity so he could ask her
Date secured!
Before the kids went to bed, I had them get their dads out of the hot tub.
Jensen went to bed when the kids did but Jared soon woke him for a game of catch. They played until about 1am
Because the boys had been up late the previous evening, they slept until breakfast
Amery watered the garden but I didn't get a pic of it because I was dealing with the other kids' wishes. Amery's only waking wish was to talk to Jensen. He didn't even have the usual be BFF wishes with every teen in town! Watering didn't trigger a wish to level up but I had him fertilize the apple tree he had planted on his first day as teen in case a fishing wish might trigger a wish to grow an apple. I can't remember what the other kids wished for but they were taken care of.
Guess who forgot to tune out autonomous training? I only put the training equipment out because Amery is athletic. I have been trying to limit distracting objects but it will be unavoidable now that the kids are getting older. It's not so bad because I think 4 kids is probably enough
I had Mikezumi come out and talk to the boys and then used Retuner to stop autonomous training. I don't care if Jared uses it to work out but I don't like sims dropping everything to be trained. After distracting the boys, Mikezumi got her morning wish to practice MA
I saw the boys getting out of the hot tub as soon as they got in and discovered that they had broken it.
There are many other woohoo options so I wasn't rushing to send Mikezumi to fix it
After treehouse woohoo, the boys went their separate ways. Jared must be getting pretty high with his logic skill by now.
I couldn't for the life of me work out what Mikezumi was sculpting. Then I realized that the gnome she had sculpted earlier was sitting on the pedestal she was currently sculpting
Jared must have had enough chess and came out to Jensen for woohoo.
Mikezumi didn't peek
Another §40 wasted!
The kids got home early because they had a field trip that I had forgotten about! I didn't realize until I started getting popups about it. I checked the kids in map view and Shark Racket was in charge and no other kids attended.
Chance and Drew had wishes to meet new people so I sent them to the park
Amery got home late because he had Shop class. It was his first and unlocked the hidden handiness skill he got from the block table
I found these two in Mikezumi's bedroom - at least they made the bed
When I was zoomed out watching the kids fish and play and Mikezumi cooking dinner, I saw the boys woohooing in the shower. I chuckled because Drew had booby trapped it the day before
I placed the cheesesteak on the table so Mikezumi could serve it but Jensen appeared from the bathroom and put it away
I had Mikezumi clear the table because the boys were spending quality time with the kids
Chance had a wish to catch a bug. I sent him to the next door lot when I saw the spawner was active.
The boys watched the stars before bed
The boys woke a little after 4. Jensen woke first but just stood there until Jared woke
In the past it was always Jensen who instigated most of the woohoo but in the last few days, Jared has been particularly active!
The boys were about to woohoo in the elevator when Mikezumi called the family to breakfast. Jared seemed to be stuck waiting while Jensen ate breakfast with the family.
I assume the action got cancelled by the delay and Jared finally came out. He didn't eat the plate set for him but grabbed one from the serving plate. He must have been hungry because I have not seen the boys help themselves to food, except at the park picnics!
I sent Amery out to water the garden. He didn't roll any wishes to level up but he got to level 4 while watering.
Drew woke with a wish to find a rock. As you can see, the spawner is close to the house.
Chance woke with a wish to go on a submarine adventure
Amery rolled a wish to enrol in an after school class. I had Mikezumi pull him out of Shop because he had already got his handiness skill and sign him up for Sports.
Mikezumi took the stone sculpture she made for an opportunity to the Doo Peas building. It was worth over §2,000 but she got nothing for it but increased relationship with the staff. She's a friendly sim and could have done that on her own. I won't be accepting any more opportunities!
So much for my Retuner tweak! I looked again and there was another setting that mentioned Jared specifically. I changed it but, just in case, I put the exercise equipment in the family inventory.
Jared was watching TV so I had Mikezumi join him
Amery got home with only enough time to do his homework before Prom because he had Sports after school.
When I saw Trinity's tag approaching the house, I sent Mikezumi out to recycle the paper because Prom dates like to talk before they go.
Trinity tripped just as Amery came out to meet her. She must like him
Amery: "I know you picked her for me, but are you sure?"
Mikezumi: "Don't look at me. I am only the Sim God's representative!"
All went well and both got in the limo and went to Prom Amery and Trinity are now going steady and Amery was voted Prom King
Chance: "Do I really have to do this?"
The family enjoyed grilled cheese for dinner
Since the boys were busy, I had Chance clear the dishes.
Drew had a wish to catch a bug so I send him to the spawner next door.
While Chance was working on a few fishing wishes, I noticed one of the townie kids arrive to do some fishing.
The boys watched the stars
After watching the stars both boys went to invite the kid in. I sent him home with MC before they could reach him It was almost 10 and I didn't need any visitors in the house at that time.
I had Amery eat an apple before heading to Prom but he was starving when he got home. Then I remembered that I have a mod that makes snacks not filling.
The boys got up at the same time. It would have been just after 3.30 At least they don't bother the family
Jared started the flirting ...
Which led to the bed being made
Then the boys went off to do their own thing.
There was a bit of a kerfuffle at breakfast in that Mikezumi got in Jared's way as they were going to their seats. Jared's action was cancelled and Mikezumi had to serve him another meal before I let her eat her breakfast.
He managed to start eating before everyone had left the table
Beckah's waking wish was to preside over the royal court. I let her have it since it is her birthday and the last opportunity to play this childish game.
The boys all had fishing wishes. One of the Frio kids was fishing in the family pond.
Mikezumi's waking wish was to go to the bookstore. I had her buy recipes for Amery and Beckah.
When she got home, I had her take the boys to the bowling alley.
On arriving, she rolled a wish to bowl with friends so I had her play with Jared.
Jensen went straight upstairs and started doing pool tricks.
Jensen was interrupted by Connor. The irresistible trait means that he never gets to finish what he starts
When I zoomed downstairs to check on Mikezumi and Jared, I found Mikezumi about to face plant!
Jared, the rotter, laughed! So did I!
I didn't realize that Jensen had come downstairs to bowl until I saw him take a dive!
When I saw Jared like this I thought Mikezumi might get pay back ....
But he managed to right himself before falling.
Jensen didn't get far with his bowling because Stefan stopped him for a chat. I got a popup that Jensen had reached level 9 in charisma! One more skill point and his LTW will be completed
After Mikezumi and Jared finished bowling, Jensen didn't waste any time in getting to Jared!
When the boys had finished woohooing, I had Mikezumi take them home. They got home while the kids were doing their homework.
Chance came home with a wish to have a tea party with his teddy and Drew to play tag with Beckah.
Amery got home late because of Sports.
Amery had a wish to play catch with Beckah and Mikezumi had a wish to hug Drew
Nick Frio, Jared's son, was meant to come home with one of the kids but had Art Class so came much later. Enquiring minds want to know why the townie kids can go to art class and my kids are limited to ballet and Scouts
Because it was getting late I started the birthday just as Nick entered the house. Jensen and Jared were flirting in the backyard but ran inside for the birthday
Mikezumi's face says it all! "Where are the rest of Beckah's jeans?"
Much more to Mikezumi's taste
"What do you think, dad?"
Everyone got cake without much fuss
Jared, Jensen and Nick all did the dishes so there was much foot stomping!
When Beckah finished her painting, Drew went over to chat with her. I bet he was sorry he did that!
More flowers!
Beckah prepared some autumn salad before bed. She got three skill points from the hidden skill she got from the field trip to the bistro and a couple baking sessions on the toy oven.
The boys woke at about 3.30. Jared was excited to see Jensen
Jensen went straight for the woohoo!
They ended up in the basement.
When Mikezumi called the family to breakfast, Jared must have got stuck in the basement.
Watering the garden didn't trigger any level up wishes.
Jared finally made it to breakfast
Beckah wanted to talk to her dad
When the morning chores were done, Beckah asked Mikezumi to teach her how to drive.
I saw a popup that Amery had leveled up in MA but when I went to look for him he was done with that and had moved on to fishing.
Mikezumi: "You can do it! Gambatte." Although it took two starts she did get there eventually.
I sent the rest of the kids to the pool with their dads. When I was following their taxi, I saw them "overtake" Mikezumi and Beckah
Jared changed into his swimsuit as soon as they arrived and had a bit of a swim before Jensen had a chance to flirt with him
They have a big pool with two boards at home but do they use it?
The boys flirted for the longest time. I don't think Jensen got in the pool the whole time they were there and they were there for hours!
Poor Chance had a diving fail
After Beckah got her licence, she and Mikezumi joined the family at the pool. They went straight into the water
I saw Jared and Jensen enter the building several times but never heard any woohoo sounds. When I checked on them I couldn't see anything wrong with the placement of the shower door but they couldn't use it so something must have been up.
Well, what do you know? The pool seems to have acquired an outdoor shower! You can just see the boys to the right of Mikezumi.
When the boys finally got their woohoo, Jensen let Jared have some water fun
Watch out, Jared! There are kids below!
I saw that Chance and Drew had the fatigued moodlet and Chance also had the drowning one so I had Mikezumi call the family to the park.
Beckah asked John Herrerra to play catch. John visited the family when he was a child. He was at the park with his parents, Pedro and Rosemary.
As it was getting close to dinnertime I kept a close eye on the family in case they tried to eat picnic food.
But the boys were happy to flirt and the rest of the family were happy to just chat at the picnic. Beckah was still playing catch.
When the sun went down, I had Mikezumi take the family to the Bistro.
Jared took a long time to come out so the family chatted.
Chance introduced himself to Becky
When the boys got home they went straight for each other
Jensen went to bed at around 11 but Jared got a book and read on Mikezumi's bed until about 2.30.
Jensen woke at around 4 but had to amuse himself until the family woke for breakfast.
Jared woke when he was called to breakfast.
Jensen and Jared had to make up for lost time so the dishes had to wait
I had Beckah water the garden to trigger the hidden gardening skills from Scouts.
Chance woke with a wish to go on a submarine adventure
Jared and Jensen really did make up for the lost time before the family woke
Jensen reached level 9 in the woohoo skill!
Beckah rolled a wish to make waffles after having them for breakfast. While cooking, she rolled a wish to learn the guitar skill so I bought her a guitar of her own
Mikezumi created a drink for an opportunity and after she had reported in, she found the Frio family were all there
Mikezumi, being friendly, always wants to meet new people so I had her introduce herself to Thomas.
The introduction and subsequent chat led to a wish to take a photo with a friend.
When Beckah started playing it triggered a wish to jam with someone. When Jensen was between woohoos, she asked him to join her
Drew was having a wonderful time on the spring rider but he had a wish locked in to catch a bug so I sent him when he had finished.
I thought Beckah should meet the boy I have planned for her. This is Marlin Lothario, son of Don and Pauline (gender switched Paul Walker).
They got hearts when she invited him in
Amery and Jared had been playing catch when Amery rolled a wish to take a photo with a friend.
Chance tried to share a secret with Marlin but it was rejected
Yes, it's true that the family don't have many visitors but that's no excuse to swarm like flies to excrement!
Something went wrong with the call to meal and Marlin and Drew had to help themselves from the main serving plate. At least they ate!
Amery got to do the dishes because his dads were otherwise occupied
When Mikezumi finished her sculpture, I saw her sneak off and found Marlin and Amery skinny dipping.
I didn't realize the sculpting station was autonomous until I saw Beckah start a clay sculpture. Not what I wanted at all! I am all about the wishes and sculpting generates many wishes that I don't want her having because I have other plans for her! I felt bad about deleting all the wishes but this is MY game!
Chance, being a party animal, went to the hot tub to turn on the stereo. Mikezumi chose that moment to tutor him. Not the best idea given there are two naked teens in the hot tub If she were me, she would have been covering his eyes
Chance interrupted Beckah's sculpting for a game of catch. Perfect timing ... NOT! Their dads were woohooing in the outdoor shower! I'm surprised my sim kids grow up so well because I would have been scarred for life
The boys woke around 3.30.
I love the end of the hold hands animation
I woke Beckah a little after her dads woke because she had a wish to fish before 6am.
The boys were still entertaining each other when Mikezumi called the family to breakfast
Chance woke with a wish to go on a submarine adventure. He only has a couple more days as a child.
Drew can often be found on the spring riders
Amery had a fishing wish and Beckah is working on a wish to level up in sculpting.
The boys must have had their fill of woohoo and did their own thing for a while. Jared needs the athletic and logic skills for his LTW. He is at level 8 in one and 9 in the other but I can't remember which. Jensen's LTW is almost done. He needed guitar (mastered) and charisma (level 9).
Rather than have Mikezumi fill her social bar by bothering one of the boys and risk them going back into woohoo mode, I sent her to the park to talk to her friend, Stein
They also played catch
I checked back at the house and the boys were back in woohoo mode!
Amery and Beckah had no after school classes so were home early.
Amery had a wish to level up in MA locked in from the previous day. He worked on that when his homework was done and Beckah continued to work on her wish to level up in sculpting.
When I next checked on Amery, I found his dads about to woohoo in the hot tub!
When Amery leveled up, I treated him to a basketball hoop. Being athletic, he checked it out straight away
Looks like he could do with a bit more practise Beckah got her wish to level up in sculpting which led to a bunch more sculpting wishes which were cancelled! I didn't want her sculpting so she better roll some wishes that I want or she will be doing what I want anyway, wishes or not!
She did have a wish to cook pancakes locked in and that wish is acceptable to me I had her make pancakes when she finished her sculpture which will not be removed from the station until I am ready for Mikezumi to sculpt again. The kids got home late because of Scouts.
Mikezumi had prepared some fish and chips earlier in the day
Mikezumi and Jensen went to mop up the woohoo puddle at the same time!
I had Mikezumi ask Amery to spar because she could do with the extra skill in case Amery rolls wishes to spar in the future.
The boys were trying to get their flirt on, but Drew was regaling them with a story
Mikezumi lost but she leveled up When I saw the children heading towards Jared and Jensen earlier, I thought Chance was also trying to talk with his dads but he was heading to the stereo to dance
Mikezumi and Amery chatted for a while after sparring and when I next checked she was tutoring him.
After the family had gone to bed, the boys were still flirting in the moonlight
The boys woke within moments of each other at around 4.30 am. Jared greeted Jensen with a shy kiss
After a bit of flirting I saw Jared heading to the basement. I think an elevator woohoo went wrong because Jensen was standing, unmoving, in the bedroom until it was almost time for breakfast.
When Mikezumi called the family to breakfast, Jared headed back up only to be attacked by the elevator door
When Jared got free of the elevator, Jensen was also freed from the woohoo that didn't happen and both made it to breakfast in time
Jared cleared the dishes
Beckah's waking wish was to hang out with Amery which was fulfulled over breakfast. Since she had no other wishes locked in, I sent her to water the garden. It didn't trigger any wishes to skill up but the garden got watered and gardening skills are never wasted
Mikezumi's waking wish was to sculpt something in wood.
Drew's waking wish was to go on a submarine adventure
Chance had no waking wishes but I sent him fishing with Amery who had a wish to fish. Fishing triggered a wish to catch a 50kg fish so I had Chance fish with red herring and he caught a shark. He went to school with a fulfilled wish moodlet which I aim for for all of my sim children
When I glanced over at the house I saw Jensen playing the guitar. Since I have a mod that stops other sims from watching sims playing instruments, I knew it was only a matter of time before Jared interrupted him. I went into map view and saw that Jared was waiting to stroke Jensen's cheek.
The boys finally got their elevator woohoo!
The teens had a field trip to the Theatre. Stein Svard was in charge. Sitting beside him is Thomas Frio.
Thomas' cousin, Noel, was also there.
I saw the boys heading to the basketball hoop. I have turned of autonomous challenges and training so the boys were trying to play on their own but Jared got there first. Look at the triump on his face! LOL
Jensen, on the other hand, looked miserable
A little later the boys both headed inside to clean the dirty counter. Jensen got there first. Jensen: "I beat you this time! Hang on, this is NOT a win!"
After cleaning the counter, the boys made the bed
Mikezumi finally got her morning wish She sculpted a brilliant Lenny the Evil Freezer Bunny worth over §1,200
Beckah didn't have an after school class because of the field trip so the teens did their homework together.
When school finished for the day, I got a pop up that Prom was coming up. I sent Beckah to Marlin's house to ask him to Prom and he accepted
I also sent Amery to Trinity's house to ask her to Prom. She also accepted.
When I checked back on Beckah she was reading a book so I sent her home. She can read at home!
Poor Amery was also left in the lurch while Trinity received a text.
I had him interrupt her for a flirt and a kiss before also sending him home. The reason that I didn't let Beckah have a parting kiss was that she and Marlin are not romantic interests yet, whereas Amery and Trinity have been going steady since the last Prom.
Chance and Drew got home late because of Scouts and did their homework while their dads got ready for some pre-dinner woohoo
Mikezumi rolled a wish to skinny dip so I sent her to the pool. You can just see her head bobbing above the water. Jensen and Jared are on Mikezumi's bed (behind the glowing shower). The family have a beautiful view from their house
The family had cheesesteak, Amery's favourite. Mikezumi had prepared it before skinny dipping.
Once again Jared cleared the dishes.
He broke the dishwasher!
When Amery was with Trinity earlier he rolled a wish to watch the stars with her. I found her at the bowling alley so sent him to get his wish
Drew had no wishes so I sent him fishing with Chance who did.
It wasn't long before Drew had a few fishing wishes of his own locked in
Jared beat Jensen this time and he doesn't look happy about it
As it was getting late I had Amery kiss Trinity goodbye and sent him home.
The boys watched the stars while Mikezumi worked on a wish to do a masterpiece sculpture. I suspect it will be while before she is that good!
The boys must not have finished what they started!
Because Mikezumi's social bar was getting low from sculpting for so long, I had Amery chat with her on his way to bed.
Although Jensen woke about 15 minutes before Jared, he just stood by the bed until Jared woke and then jumped him!
I noticed the ears of Mikezumi's Evil Freezer Bunny were poking through the wall so I moved it away from the house after taking this picture.
Because the boys woke after 4.30, they only had time for one woohoo before breakfast
Jared cleared the dishes.
Drew's waking wish was to find a rock. There are a couple of convenient spawners on the home lot.
Chance's waking wish was to have a tea party with his teddy. Today is his birthday and his last chance to do this.
Amery woke with a wish to fish.
After collecting the gem, Drew rode the spring rider
Beckah's waking wish was to do a brilliant painting. She didn't finish her painting before the school bus came so didn't get her wish. She did, however, roll a wish to speak with Jensen when he came to the breakfast table so she got at least one wish before school. Jensen and Jared were about to woohoo when the school bus arrived.
Mikezumi's waking wish was to catch a great fish. She caught a perfect frog which I had her cook up a little later in the day
After fishing, I sent Mikezumi to get the boys out of the hot tub. While she was talking to Jared, Jensen got in his car and rode off so I had Mikezumi play chess with Jared to help him with his LTW.
I went into map view and followed Jensen's tag. He waited at the school until the kids started coming out for their field trip to the Science Facility then got on the bus with them
The girls are Don Lothario's daughters with Pauline Walker
After playing chess for a while, Mikezumi rolled a wish to hug Jared. I let her stop playing because she, like me, doesn't much care for chess and let her have her wish. They chatted for ages and Jared shared a lot of gossip for a sim who barely talks to anyone outside the family
When Mikezumi had had enough talking and got her book out, I had her cook the frog instead. Jared made a beeline for the stereo for a workout.
When she had finished cooking the frog legs, I let her read her book
When Jensen got home from the field trip he went straight for the computer. I was surprised he didn't go to Jared!
Amery shot hoops when he was done with his homework. He reached level 6 in the athletic skill.
I didn't care for Mikezumi's latest sculpture so had her sell it.
Beckah had her first Shop class so got home late. When I start the next day, I will have Mikezumi pull her out of Shop class and enrol her in Art Class instead. I just wanted to trigger the hidden handiness skills she got from the block table.
Everyone was getting a negative moodlet from a stinky sim so I had Drew interrupt his dad's workout in the hope that he would go shower. "Don't take this personally, dad, but you stink!"
Thankfully, he did!
He finished just in time for Chance's birthday
Even like this I can see how beautiful he is!
Pity he didn't smile after aging up.
Chance's first wish on aging up was to go to Prom. I searched the map while they were eating cake to see if the partner I had chosen for him had also aged up.
Jared and Jensen fought over the dishes
Since Chance's partner hadn't aged up yet, I had him get started on his cooking skills.
The boys watched the stars after clearing the dishes
I checked Chance's inventory because I couldn't remember if I had bought him a guitar (he is a virtuoso) but I hadn't yet so I had Mikezumi give him one for his birthday
As soon as Mikezumi gave it to him he started playing which triggered a wish to jam with someone. Beckah was handy
The boys watched the stars again!
Amery is always rolling wishes to play catch with his siblings. This time it was Drew's turn
Finally! I kept checking Chance's relationship panel to see if Iggy Svard had aged up and saw that he had. It was after 9 but I sent Chance anyway
Great choice! They flirted autonomously after Chance secured a date for the Prom
Before Chance could go for woohoo, I sent him home to bed.
Jared was about to get a book from Mikezumi's room when Jensen followed him in. They flirted for a while and then headed to bed.
Comments
Terrible hair and clothes but I can already see how beautiful he is!
Ooh la la!
When they were done with the cake, I had Amery take care of Drew's needs. He was hungry for food and attention.
I found the boys near the hot tub. Perhaps a woohoo that didn't pan out. Jared was just relaxing and Jensen played his guitar nearby.
Mikezumi had a wish to skinny dip so I let her. That made Jensen stop playing his guitar!
After Jensen reacted to Mikezumi's skinny dipping I saw him head inside and pick up Drew. He held him, doing nothing, for a few minutes.
But then he played with him before dumping him on the front step
Poor Amery. He's athletic but hasn't any skill points yet and Jared has a mean throw!
After the family had gone to bed I found the boys getting ready for woohoo.
A look at Amery in CAS. He looks much nicer in game than in CAS.

Jared woke around 5.30 and went to read in Mikezumi's room. Lucky Mikezumi! He was still there when she woke at 6
Jensen woke a little after Jared but, instead of bothering him, had a shower in the backyard.
Mikezumi got Drew up and ready for his last day as toddler
Amery woke up in a mood! Cancelled! LOL
His mood swing was gone before he got to the breakfast table
I had a little chuckle when I saw both Jared and Mikezumi were looking lovingly at Chance.
There were only a few plants in the garden and none needed watering. I had Amery plant a few seeds to trigger the hidden gardening skill from Scouts.
Beckah had a wish to catch a 50kg fish. She didn't manage to get that one before school but she rolled one to catch a record sized piranha just as she snagged her first one which I managed to lock in before it cleared the water
Chance had a wish to make a sleeping potion which was locked in from the previous day when he leveled up in logic.
After planting the seeds, I found Amery chilling in the sand pit.
The boys kindly made Mikezumi's bed
Drew amused himself while everyone else was busy

After the kids had gone to school and Mikezumi had finished the gardening I sent her to the computer to sign Amery up for an after school class. I discovered that it was broken so she fixed it first.
I decided to age up Drew earlier rather than later so he would have more of the day to play and start working on his wishes and skills.
Not likely!
Much better!
The boys were busy in the bathroom while Drew was having his birthday
I sent him out to Mikezumi to fill his social bar
I saw another §40 deducted from the family funds!
I sent Drew to learn the fishing skill and Mikezumi finished her sculpture. I sold it, of course, because who wants splinters in their butt cheeks?
Mikezumi still had her wish to meet someone new and everyone was at work. When I saw Emma at home, I quickly opened her home with MC and teleported Mikezumi there to meet her
I checked back at home and the boys were doing their own thing.
Drew rolled a wish to learn the logic skill while fishing and, since Jared was already playing, I had him join him
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
When Amery aged up, Mikezumi rolled a wish to teach him how to drive. Since she was only reading, I decided she could do it after he finished his homework.
To help Jared get a little closer to mastering the athletic skill, I had Drew ask him for a game of catch.
After a while I took pity on him and let him talk to Jared instead.
It didn't last long because Jensen came out for some time with Jared
Beckah and Chance got home late because of Scouts and did their homework together.
Amery learned to drive in one go and when I got the popup that he had got his licence they were close to home but somehow ended up by the Bistro.
They got home in time for dinner
Jared broke the dishwasher. When I uploaded this pic I remembered that Mikezumi hadn't fixed it before bed. I might have to fix it with MC before she wakes up
Amery learned how to make ratatouille
The boys had another shower
Poor Drew was trying to chat with Jensen but didn't stand a chance. Amery had just got his first belt and was heading to the sand pit. Mikezumi was working on a stone sculpture for an opportunity. Chance was dancing in the house. Beckah, not in pic, was chatting with a friend because she had a wish to become best friends and I wanted to speed it along a little.
Because Amery rolled a wish to spar with someone when he got his first belt, I had Mikezumi start learning MA. She's a good Caretaker

While Drew was fishing, his dads woke up. It was about 4.30.
Jensen got up a moment earlier than Jared and stepped outside. Jared followed him for a flirt
Flirting led to hot tub woohoo
They stayed in the hot tub until Mikezumi called the family to breakfast.
Drew woke with a wish to bake something.
Beckah didn't have a waking wish but she rolled a wish to play catch with Jared over breakfast.
Amery rolled a wish to play catch with Chance over breakfast.
Chance's waking wish was to catch a bug. After he had played catch with Amery for a while, I teleported him to a bug spawner.
When I got the camera back to the house, I found Jensen and Drew sharing a joke
I thought that Jared was being gentle because Beckah was a girl
But his next throw was not so kind
After the kids left for school, I found Jensen playing his guitar and Jared sitting on the couch about to watch TV.
It didn't last long!
And the boys were in the hot tub once again!
Amery had a field trip to the Theatre. Gwendolyn Svard (nee Goode) was in charge. The teen girl is Trinity Svard. Her mother is currently married to Stefan Svard so she is a Svard only by marriage.
Trinity is the only other teen in town. She and Amery are the oldest kids. A few more kids will be aging up later in the day. Because I knew that Trinity would be Amery's partner I gave her the clumsy trait because I think it is cute. I missed it, but she tripped getting out of the bus

I checked the fridge and the family were running out of steak, burgers, eggs and cheese so I sent Mikezumi to the community garden.
When I zoomed back to the house it took me a moment to find the boys
Amery still doesn't like homework
When he finished his homework he finally got his wish to spar with someone
Given her advanced age, I am not surprised that Mikezumi lost but she did get one hit in
The kids got home late because of Scouts. Mikezumi is cooking dinner in the background. She got one of the cooking challenges while preparing the meal. I can't remember which one but I think it means she will cook faster now.
I thought it was adorable when Chance thanked her for cooking
As soon as she finished eating, Mikezumi got a text that Jared Frio's party was about to begin
Jared and Estrella's 3 sons were there
When Chance finished his dinner I sent him also. He is a party animal
Estrella came home and went straight for woohoo. No wonder they have 3 kids already! LOL
I noticed that Chance had a wish to be best friends with this boy locked in so I had them spend some time together
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
Mikezumi rolled a wish to take a photo with a friend.
LOL
Connor arrived after a little later
It had been a while since I had checked on the boys. They were woohooing in the hot tub
I left them to it and checked back on the family.
What is it with sims feeling the need to tutor kids?
When I was sending the family home, I remembered that Prom was coming up so I teleported Amery to Trinity so he could ask her
Date secured!
Before the kids went to bed, I had them get their dads out of the hot tub.
Jensen went to bed when the kids did but Jared soon woke him for a game of catch. They played until about 1am
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
Amery watered the garden but I didn't get a pic of it because I was dealing with the other kids' wishes. Amery's only waking wish was to talk to Jensen. He didn't even have the usual be BFF wishes with every teen in town! Watering didn't trigger a wish to level up but I had him fertilize the apple tree he had planted on his first day as teen in case a fishing wish might trigger a wish to grow an apple. I can't remember what the other kids wished for but they were taken care of.
Guess who forgot to tune out autonomous training? I only put the training equipment out because Amery is athletic. I have been trying to limit distracting objects but it will be unavoidable now that the kids are getting older. It's not so bad because I think 4 kids is probably enough
I had Mikezumi come out and talk to the boys and then used Retuner to stop autonomous training. I don't care if Jared uses it to work out but I don't like sims dropping everything to be trained. After distracting the boys, Mikezumi got her morning wish to practice MA
I saw the boys getting out of the hot tub as soon as they got in and discovered that they had broken it.
There are many other woohoo options so I wasn't rushing to send Mikezumi to fix it
After treehouse woohoo, the boys went their separate ways. Jared must be getting pretty high with his logic skill by now.
I couldn't for the life of me work out what Mikezumi was sculpting. Then I realized that the gnome she had sculpted earlier was sitting on the pedestal she was currently sculpting
Jared must have had enough chess and came out to Jensen for woohoo.
Mikezumi didn't peek
Another §40 wasted!
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
Chance and Drew had wishes to meet new people so I sent them to the park
Amery got home late because he had Shop class. It was his first and unlocked the hidden handiness skill he got from the block table
I found these two in Mikezumi's bedroom - at least they made the bed
When I was zoomed out watching the kids fish and play and Mikezumi cooking dinner, I saw the boys woohooing in the shower. I chuckled because Drew had booby trapped it the day before
I placed the cheesesteak on the table so Mikezumi could serve it but Jensen appeared from the bathroom and put it away
I had Mikezumi clear the table because the boys were spending quality time with the kids
Chance had a wish to catch a bug. I sent him to the next door lot when I saw the spawner was active.
The boys watched the stars before bed
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
In the past it was always Jensen who instigated most of the woohoo but in the last few days, Jared has been particularly active!
The boys were about to woohoo in the elevator when Mikezumi called the family to breakfast. Jared seemed to be stuck waiting while Jensen ate breakfast with the family.
I assume the action got cancelled by the delay and Jared finally came out. He didn't eat the plate set for him but grabbed one from the serving plate. He must have been hungry because I have not seen the boys help themselves to food, except at the park picnics!
I sent Amery out to water the garden. He didn't roll any wishes to level up but he got to level 4 while watering.
Drew woke with a wish to find a rock. As you can see, the spawner is close to the house.
Chance woke with a wish to go on a submarine adventure
Amery rolled a wish to enrol in an after school class. I had Mikezumi pull him out of Shop because he had already got his handiness skill and sign him up for Sports.
Mikezumi took the stone sculpture she made for an opportunity to the Doo Peas building. It was worth over §2,000 but she got nothing for it but increased relationship with the staff. She's a friendly sim and could have done that on her own. I won't be accepting any more opportunities!
So much for my Retuner tweak!
Jared was watching TV so I had Mikezumi join him
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
When I saw Trinity's tag approaching the house, I sent Mikezumi out to recycle the paper because Prom dates like to talk before they go.
Trinity tripped just as Amery came out to meet her. She must like him
Amery: "I know you picked her for me, but are you sure?"
Mikezumi: "Don't look at me. I am only the Sim God's representative!"
All went well and both got in the limo and went to Prom
Chance: "Do I really have to do this?"
The family enjoyed grilled cheese for dinner
Since the boys were busy, I had Chance clear the dishes.
Drew had a wish to catch a bug so I send him to the spawner next door.
While Chance was working on a few fishing wishes, I noticed one of the townie kids arrive to do some fishing.
The boys watched the stars
After watching the stars both boys went to invite the kid in. I sent him home with MC before they could reach him
I had Amery eat an apple before heading to Prom but he was starving when he got home. Then I remembered that I have a mod that makes snacks not filling.
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
Jared started the flirting ...
Which led to the bed being made
Then the boys went off to do their own thing.
There was a bit of a kerfuffle at breakfast in that Mikezumi got in Jared's way as they were going to their seats. Jared's action was cancelled and Mikezumi had to serve him another meal before I let her eat her breakfast.
He managed to start eating before everyone had left the table
Beckah's waking wish was to preside over the royal court. I let her have it since it is her birthday and the last opportunity to play this childish game.
The boys all had fishing wishes. One of the Frio kids was fishing in the family pond.
Mikezumi's waking wish was to go to the bookstore. I had her buy recipes for Amery and Beckah.
When she got home, I had her take the boys to the bowling alley.
On arriving, she rolled a wish to bowl with friends so I had her play with Jared.
Jensen went straight upstairs and started doing pool tricks.
Jensen was interrupted by Connor. The irresistible trait means that he never gets to finish what he starts
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
Jared, the rotter, laughed!
I didn't realize that Jensen had come downstairs to bowl until I saw him take a dive!
When I saw Jared like this I thought Mikezumi might get pay back ....
But he managed to right himself before falling.
Jensen didn't get far with his bowling because Stefan stopped him for a chat. I got a popup that Jensen had reached level 9 in charisma! One more skill point and his LTW will be completed
After Mikezumi and Jared finished bowling, Jensen didn't waste any time in getting to Jared!
When the boys had finished woohooing, I had Mikezumi take them home. They got home while the kids were doing their homework.
Chance came home with a wish to have a tea party with his teddy and Drew to play tag with Beckah.
Amery got home late because of Sports.
Amery had a wish to play catch with Beckah and Mikezumi had a wish to hug Drew
Nick Frio, Jared's son, was meant to come home with one of the kids but had Art Class so came much later. Enquiring minds want to know why the townie kids can go to art class and my kids are limited to ballet and Scouts
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
Mikezumi's face says it all! "Where are the rest of Beckah's jeans?"
Much more to Mikezumi's taste
"What do you think, dad?"
Everyone got cake without much fuss
Jared, Jensen and Nick all did the dishes so there was much foot stomping!
When Beckah finished her painting, Drew went over to chat with her. I bet he was sorry he did that!
More flowers!
Beckah prepared some autumn salad before bed. She got three skill points from the hidden skill she got from the field trip to the bistro and a couple baking sessions on the toy oven.
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
Jensen went straight for the woohoo!
They ended up in the basement.
When Mikezumi called the family to breakfast, Jared must have got stuck in the basement.
Watering the garden didn't trigger any level up wishes.
Jared finally made it to breakfast
Beckah wanted to talk to her dad
When the morning chores were done, Beckah asked Mikezumi to teach her how to drive.
I saw a popup that Amery had leveled up in MA but when I went to look for him he was done with that and had moved on to fishing.
Mikezumi: "You can do it! Gambatte." Although it took two starts she did get there eventually.
I sent the rest of the kids to the pool with their dads. When I was following their taxi, I saw them "overtake" Mikezumi and Beckah
Jared changed into his swimsuit as soon as they arrived and had a bit of a swim before Jensen had a chance to flirt with him
They have a big pool with two boards at home but do they use it?
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
Poor Chance had a diving fail
After Beckah got her licence, she and Mikezumi joined the family at the pool. They went straight into the water
I saw Jared and Jensen enter the building several times but never heard any woohoo sounds. When I checked on them I couldn't see anything wrong with the placement of the shower door but they couldn't use it so something must have been up.
Well, what do you know? The pool seems to have acquired an outdoor shower!
When the boys finally got their woohoo, Jensen let Jared have some water fun
Watch out, Jared! There are kids below!
I saw that Chance and Drew had the fatigued moodlet and Chance also had the drowning one so I had Mikezumi call the family to the park.
Beckah asked John Herrerra to play catch. John visited the family when he was a child. He was at the park with his parents, Pedro and Rosemary.
As it was getting close to dinnertime I kept a close eye on the family in case they tried to eat picnic food.
But the boys were happy to flirt and the rest of the family were happy to just chat at the picnic. Beckah was still playing catch.
When the sun went down, I had Mikezumi take the family to the Bistro.
Jared took a long time to come out so the family chatted.
Chance introduced himself to Becky
When the boys got home they went straight for each other
Jensen went to bed at around 11 but Jared got a book and read on Mikezumi's bed until about 2.30.
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
Jared woke when he was called to breakfast.
Jensen and Jared had to make up for lost time so the dishes had to wait
I had Beckah water the garden to trigger the hidden gardening skills from Scouts.
Chance woke with a wish to go on a submarine adventure
Jared and Jensen really did make up for the lost time before the family woke
Jensen reached level 9 in the woohoo skill!
Beckah rolled a wish to make waffles after having them for breakfast. While cooking, she rolled a wish to learn the guitar skill so I bought her a guitar of her own
Mikezumi created a drink for an opportunity and after she had reported in, she found the Frio family were all there
Mikezumi, being friendly, always wants to meet new people so I had her introduce herself to Thomas.
The introduction and subsequent chat led to a wish to take a photo with a friend.
When Beckah started playing it triggered a wish to jam with someone. When Jensen was between woohoos, she asked him to join her
Drew was having a wonderful time on the spring rider but he had a wish locked in to catch a bug so I sent him when he had finished.
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
They got hearts when she invited him in
Amery and Jared had been playing catch when Amery rolled a wish to take a photo with a friend.
Chance tried to share a secret with Marlin but it was rejected
Yes, it's true that the family don't have many visitors but that's no excuse to swarm like flies to excrement!
Something went wrong with the call to meal and Marlin and Drew had to help themselves from the main serving plate. At least they ate!
Amery got to do the dishes because his dads were otherwise occupied
When Mikezumi finished her sculpture, I saw her sneak off and found Marlin and Amery skinny dipping.
I didn't realize the sculpting station was autonomous until I saw Beckah start a clay sculpture. Not what I wanted at all! I am all about the wishes and sculpting generates many wishes that I don't want her having because I have other plans for her! I felt bad about deleting all the wishes but this is MY game!
Chance, being a party animal, went to the hot tub to turn on the stereo. Mikezumi chose that moment to tutor him. Not the best idea given there are two naked teens in the hot tub
Chance interrupted Beckah's sculpting for a game of catch. Perfect timing ... NOT! Their dads were woohooing in the outdoor shower!
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
I love the end of the hold hands animation
I woke Beckah a little after her dads woke because she had a wish to fish before 6am.
The boys were still entertaining each other when Mikezumi called the family to breakfast
Chance woke with a wish to go on a submarine adventure. He only has a couple more days as a child.
Drew can often be found on the spring riders
Amery had a fishing wish and Beckah is working on a wish to level up in sculpting.
The boys must have had their fill of woohoo and did their own thing for a while. Jared needs the athletic and logic skills for his LTW. He is at level 8 in one and 9 in the other but I can't remember which. Jensen's LTW is almost done. He needed guitar (mastered) and charisma (level 9).
Rather than have Mikezumi fill her social bar by bothering one of the boys and risk them going back into woohoo mode, I sent her to the park to talk to her friend, Stein
They also played catch
I checked back at the house and the boys were back in woohoo mode!
Amery and Beckah had no after school classes so were home early.
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
When I next checked on Amery, I found his dads about to woohoo in the hot tub!
When Amery leveled up, I treated him to a basketball hoop. Being athletic, he checked it out straight away
Looks like he could do with a bit more practise
She did have a wish to cook pancakes locked in and that wish is acceptable to me
Mikezumi had prepared some fish and chips earlier in the day
Mikezumi and Jensen went to mop up the woohoo puddle at the same time!
I had Mikezumi ask Amery to spar because she could do with the extra skill in case Amery rolls wishes to spar in the future.
The boys were trying to get their flirt on, but Drew was regaling them with a story
Mikezumi lost but she leveled up
Mikezumi and Amery chatted for a while after sparring and when I next checked she was tutoring him.
After the family had gone to bed, the boys were still flirting in the moonlight
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
After a bit of flirting I saw Jared heading to the basement. I think an elevator woohoo went wrong because Jensen was standing, unmoving, in the bedroom until it was almost time for breakfast.
When Mikezumi called the family to breakfast, Jared headed back up only to be attacked by the elevator door
When Jared got free of the elevator, Jensen was also freed from the woohoo that didn't happen and both made it to breakfast in time
Jared cleared the dishes
Beckah's waking wish was to hang out with Amery which was fulfulled over breakfast. Since she had no other wishes locked in, I sent her to water the garden. It didn't trigger any wishes to skill up but the garden got watered and gardening skills are never wasted
Mikezumi's waking wish was to sculpt something in wood.
Drew's waking wish was to go on a submarine adventure
Chance had no waking wishes but I sent him fishing with Amery who had a wish to fish. Fishing triggered a wish to catch a 50kg fish so I had Chance fish with red herring and he caught a shark. He went to school with a fulfilled wish moodlet which I aim for for all of my sim children
When I glanced over at the house I saw Jensen playing the guitar. Since I have a mod that stops other sims from watching sims playing instruments, I knew it was only a matter of time before Jared interrupted him. I went into map view and saw that Jared was waiting to stroke Jensen's cheek.
The boys finally got their elevator woohoo!
The teens had a field trip to the Theatre. Stein Svard was in charge. Sitting beside him is Thomas Frio.
Thomas' cousin, Noel, was also there.
I saw the boys heading to the basketball hoop. I have turned of autonomous challenges and training so the boys were trying to play on their own but Jared got there first. Look at the triump on his face! LOL
Jensen, on the other hand, looked miserable
A little later the boys both headed inside to clean the dirty counter. Jensen got there first. Jensen: "I beat you this time! Hang on, this is NOT a win!"
After cleaning the counter, the boys made the bed
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
Beckah didn't have an after school class because of the field trip so the teens did their homework together.
When school finished for the day, I got a pop up that Prom was coming up. I sent Beckah to Marlin's house to ask him to Prom and he accepted
I also sent Amery to Trinity's house to ask her to Prom. She also accepted.
When I checked back on Beckah she was reading a book so I sent her home. She can read at home!
Poor Amery was also left in the lurch while Trinity received a text.
I had him interrupt her for a flirt and a kiss before also sending him home. The reason that I didn't let Beckah have a parting kiss was that she and Marlin are not romantic interests yet, whereas Amery and Trinity have been going steady since the last Prom.
Chance and Drew got home late because of Scouts and did their homework while their dads got ready for some pre-dinner woohoo
Mikezumi rolled a wish to skinny dip so I sent her to the pool. You can just see her head bobbing above the water. Jensen and Jared are on Mikezumi's bed (behind the glowing shower). The family have a beautiful view from their house
The family had cheesesteak, Amery's favourite. Mikezumi had prepared it before skinny dipping.
Once again Jared cleared the dishes.
He broke the dishwasher!
When Amery was with Trinity earlier he rolled a wish to watch the stars with her. I found her at the bowling alley so sent him to get his wish
Drew had no wishes so I sent him fishing with Chance who did.
It wasn't long before Drew had a few fishing wishes of his own locked in
Jared beat Jensen this time and he doesn't look happy about it
As it was getting late I had Amery kiss Trinity goodbye and sent him home.
The boys watched the stars while Mikezumi worked on a wish to do a masterpiece sculpture. I suspect it will be while before she is that good!
The boys must not have finished what they started!
Because Mikezumi's social bar was getting low from sculpting for so long, I had Amery chat with her on his way to bed.
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
I noticed the ears of Mikezumi's Evil Freezer Bunny were poking through the wall so I moved it away from the house after taking this picture.
Because the boys woke after 4.30, they only had time for one woohoo before breakfast
Jared cleared the dishes.
Drew's waking wish was to find a rock. There are a couple of convenient spawners on the home lot.
Chance's waking wish was to have a tea party with his teddy. Today is his birthday and his last chance to do this.
Amery woke with a wish to fish.
After collecting the gem, Drew rode the spring rider
Beckah's waking wish was to do a brilliant painting. She didn't finish her painting before the school bus came so didn't get her wish. She did, however, roll a wish to speak with Jensen when he came to the breakfast table so she got at least one wish before school. Jensen and Jared were about to woohoo when the school bus arrived.
Mikezumi's waking wish was to catch a great fish. She caught a perfect frog which I had her cook up a little later in the day
After fishing, I sent Mikezumi to get the boys out of the hot tub. While she was talking to Jared, Jensen got in his car and rode off so I had Mikezumi play chess with Jared to help him with his LTW.
I went into map view and followed Jensen's tag. He waited at the school until the kids started coming out for their field trip to the Science Facility then got on the bus with them
The girls are Don Lothario's daughters with Pauline Walker
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
When Mikezumi had had enough talking and got her book out, I had her cook the frog instead. Jared made a beeline for the stereo for a workout.
When she had finished cooking the frog legs, I let her read her book
When Jensen got home from the field trip he went straight for the computer. I was surprised he didn't go to Jared!
Amery shot hoops when he was done with his homework. He reached level 6 in the athletic skill.
I didn't care for Mikezumi's latest sculpture so had her sell it.
Beckah had her first Shop class so got home late. When I start the next day, I will have Mikezumi pull her out of Shop class and enrol her in Art Class instead. I just wanted to trigger the hidden handiness skills she got from the block table.
Everyone was getting a negative moodlet from a stinky sim so I had Drew interrupt his dad's workout in the hope that he would go shower. "Don't take this personally, dad, but you stink!"
Thankfully, he did!
He finished just in time for Chance's birthday
Even like this I can see how beautiful he is!
Pity he didn't smile after aging up.
Zumi and the Winchester Brothers
The Watcher's Caretaker - A Limited ISBI
Jared and Jensen fought over the dishes
Since Chance's partner hadn't aged up yet, I had him get started on his cooking skills.
The boys watched the stars after clearing the dishes
I checked Chance's inventory because I couldn't remember if I had bought him a guitar (he is a virtuoso) but I hadn't yet so I had Mikezumi give him one for his birthday
As soon as Mikezumi gave it to him he started playing which triggered a wish to jam with someone. Beckah was handy
The boys watched the stars again!
Amery is always rolling wishes to play catch with his siblings. This time it was Drew's turn
Finally! I kept checking Chance's relationship panel to see if Iggy Svard had aged up and saw that he had. It was after 9 but I sent Chance anyway
Great choice! They flirted autonomously after Chance secured a date for the Prom
Before Chance could go for woohoo, I sent him home to bed.
Jared was about to get a book from Mikezumi's room when Jensen followed him in. They flirted for a while and then headed to bed.
