Hello! This is where I'll be posting all my updates and photos for my Not So Berry Challenge. My holidays start at the end of the day, so I'll have plenty of time to post photos!
The ceremony, (I don't have any photos of the dancing and what not, sorry).
Surprise, Mint! You're pregnant on your wedding day, lol.
Um...someone died. I didn't kill them purposely, I swear! It was a vampire, OOPS!
Now, Mint's pregnancy with Hunter, (the baby boy). Don't mind the fact that she's giving birth into thin air, it's a mod so that decorative cribs will actually work Also, this is in the new house (next post).
By the way, feel free to post any photos you have here as well, for the Not So Berry Challenge at least. I guess this is just a thread for posting Not So Berry photos!
oh , also if you don't want to play with the simblob thing
or get rid of it for pics you just have to go in game : SHFT + CNTRL + C
in the white cheat bar that appears in the upper left corner, type in : testingcheats true
then press enter. after that type in the white bar again, but this time : headlineeffects off
you can also put on instead of off to turn it back on.
@undressyourbones Ah! Thanks very much! I remember searching it up a while ago, and the only way to take it away was some really complicated coding. I guess there was a patch that added a hideheadlineeffects cheat!
Mint aged up into an adult. She still looks gorgeous, but a little older, hehe.
Had to post this. She just looked too fabulous for me to not post it.
Rose got a job as a barista, earning a whopping $82 a day. *slowly claps*
Hunter aged up (forgot to get a proper photo of him, oops)
Rose attended prom, looking stunning!
Progress report:
-Level 9 of scientist career
-Level 9 logic
-Level 10 mischief
-Finished mischief aspiration
-Finished element collection
I am NEARLY there! Nearly nearly! Not gonna lie though, the time pressure is really getting to me. Rose has four days before she ages into a young adult, which is when I'm starting the next generation, and Mint has 2 days off of work! She needs to get going, man!
Oh my gosh! I feel so emotional, lol. Rose has just aged up into a young adult. Generation two begins! PREPARE FOR LOTS OF PHOTOS!
(Back in the old house photos)
Why? Just why?

(In the new house photos)
The house! I know it's very pink, that's because I don't think red looks good as a house, so I just made it pink instead, lol. Also, I did use the freerealestate cheat to buy this house, but the Berry family did have enough money to get the house for Rose anyway. It just wasn't possible to move her out by herself, so I had to split the households and blah blah blah.

That's all my photos for now, but expect a lot more! New generation, new photos!
Argh, I got really sick! Oh well, I had a lot of time to play, so here's my update!
Rose and Eric 2 days after she moved into her house (things got really heated after that)
While Rose was at work, Eric and Mint had lunch together
Rose got pregnant! VERY unexpected, honestly. I thought I clicked woohoo, oops. Wasn't planning on having a child this early, but oh well!
After Rose told Eric she was pregnant, they decided to have a shotgun wedding
During the wedding, my game unfortunately was glitching. I guess it recognised Eric as a butler, and I couldn't technically marry him. I just had to pretend! Here's the 'ceremony'
Heres Rose 'leaving' Eric 'at the altar'
The next day, Rose went into labour!
She gave birth to a girl! Baby Marigold (that's kinda yellow right?)
Don't have photos, but Rose went on a few dates.
Marigold aged up into a toddler (she has the independent trait)
She's already pretty independent. She puts herself to bed, feeds herself, goes to the potty herself, teachers herself things etc
Rose is already level 8 of the politician career! Yay! Not to mention, she already finished her aspiration! Woohoo!
Progress:
-I've left someone at the altar (technically)
-Had one child
-Level 8 of politician career
-Finished aspiration
Making pretty good progress, if I do say so myself!
I love the accidental pregnancy! I had my rose sim leave her fiance at a shotgun wedding as well! Mine was on purpose though. They're still friends for the kid's sake and I think I'll have them actually marry as Elders.
@Chushii58 Haha, she is pretty cute, if I do say so myself! Rose already has someone new in mind Rose and Eric are actually good friends though, and Eric still sends Marigold gifts in the mail (cute feature, sims).
Do you have a thread for the not so berry challenge? I love reading about everyone else's games, haha.

I don't right now but I might make one later in the week! I'll message you if I do. I'll probably steal your thread format and do a big photodump.
@Chushii58 No problem! To be honest, photos are way more fun to look at than word updates for me, at least. Now I have an update, pretty big update. I played a lot, but my wifi went down, so I wasn't able to update, so here's one huge update!
Little Marigold aged up! Kind of sad about it, she was really cute. Something I'll point out (I wanted to add a tiny story aspect to this challenge) is that Rose made Marigold a strawberry cake for her birthday (terrible quality, ew). Rose's favourite cake is strawberry cake, Marigold HATES strawberry cake. Her mum doesn't realise though because she doesn't pay attention to her.
Marigold's room
Here's Marigold as a child at her grandparent's home. For some weird reason, I think Mint adopted a child? That's the child beside her.
Mint tucking in Marigold
Mint became an elder, sadly, as did Blake
Sadly, shortly after Mint and Blake became elders, they both passed away. Marigold was only a child It was pretty sad for me, not gonna lie
I was SO proud of myself when I did this
Then Marigold aged up! (Strawberry cake, again)
Here she is!
Before:
After:
Here's Marigold's room. I went for a very yellow theme, and I tried to go for a 'homemade' look. Since her mum's pretty elegant, she still decided to have some regular furniture
Got more photos! SO, I have now moved onto generation three! To be honest, generation two wasn't exactly the most interesting generation since there was only one child, it was a lot of just skipping through the work/school days. But now, it's Marigold's time to shine!
Quite a coincidence, distant is the perfect childhood phase for Marigold!
Rose proposed to Eric! I plan on jumping back into their household for a day for their wedding when they're both elders!
Needless to say, Marigold made her own birthday cake. A chocolate cake, her favourite!
Here she is, not a good photo, sorry!
So, Marigold met a guy He's pretty cute! They flirted A LOT before they actually kissed, gosh.
Here's the first kiss though
And here's them hanging out (he moved in, he's a tech guru)
The first thing Marigold did when she arrived at the new house, was dispose of the stupid strawberry cake! Good riddance!
AND FINALLY, THE HOUSE!
I am EXTREMELY annoyed. VERY ANNOYED. So, the two of them went to a quaint, little pool park for a day date. It was a great date, legendary to be exact, and I then planned a second date at a VERY fancy restaurant. There, I was planning on Christian (the guy) asking Marigold to be his girlfriend. Well, I accidentally clicked 'ask to be girlfriend' instead of 'kiss' and I tried to cancel the action. It glitched and registered her as his girlfriend anyway, so I didn't even get to see the interaction Oh, well.
MORE PHOTOS! I think I need to keep these posts shorter...oops...
So, Rose became an elder, so I switched to her household for a day. Lovely wedding! (She switched dresses halfway through, *sigh*)
Christian and Marigold went out for a fancy dinner, where Christian proposed! Also, Marigold had a space taco, so perfect for her.
Marigold and Christian's wedding!
Honeymoon 'woohoo' (they actually tried for baby)
Marigold fell pregnant! Yay!
Here she is telling her family members
The baby was born! A girl, baby Luna
Baby Luna became toddler Luna
Marigold fell pregnant again!
Marigold had the second baby! A second girl! Baby Aurora!
Done! I don't have any photos, but Marigold is pregnant for a THIRD time! Ahhh, how am I going to survive two toddlers?! I want to have 4 kids with Marigold, and the heir will be the final child (since both the heirs so far have been the first/only child).
Oh. My. Goodness.
SEND HELP!
MARIGOLD HAS JUST GIVEN BIRTH TO TRIPLETS. *FREAKING OUT*
2 boys: Apollo and Cosmos
1 girl: Raven
AHHHH!!! WHAT DO?
Ok, freak out over. But seriously, I have no idea what I'm going to do. I'll have 4 toddlers at the same time...4...wish me luck.
Hi, I'm back from the dead lol
So even though I haven't been posting on this much, I have been playing a bit. I'm sorry I don't have many photos from gen 4 and 5, and I've collected a bunch of gen 6 photos which I'll send in a different post.
Anyway, enjoy!
My gen 4 sim, Raven, kissing her then boyfriend, now husband The proposal, she said yes! They had a little wedding in the kid's bedroom, because I was lazy
Sorry to say that's all I've got for gen 4
GEN 5
Proposal of my plum sim (she said yes of course!) Note: this is their remarriage Not a good photo, but here's their sweet doggo, Monka!
The re-wedding!
Also, I think I should probably mention that at this point, Aubrey (my plum sim) already has two children. One, Athena, born to her husband. The second, Lucinda (the heir), born to a one night stand that Aubrey had after divorcing her husband (Tom). Athena as a child! Tom Aubrey, my plum sim Lucinda being the bratty child she was
And that's all I have for gen 5
GEN 6
I don't actually have any gen 6 photos yet but here's Lucinda's backstory:
Lucinda always felt like she was the unloved child. She was a child born from a one night stand, she was an accidental pregnancy. No matter how many times her mother told her that she loved her just as much as she loved Athena, she couldn't help but feel out of place. Out of jealousy, she never built up a relationship with her step father. This backfired on her, however, because Athena and her father had a really close relationship, and this just made her feel more left out. As the years passed, she only began to feel more bitter. Much of the time, she turned to food for comfort. She found a love for baking, and found that she had quite the sweet tooth. Her mother noticed how much she was eating, and told her to stop. As a result, Lucinda began to steal food from her neighbours. The more her mother tried to control Lucinda's poor diet, the more the two of them drifted apart. By the time Lucinda had graduated high school, she was completely swamped with anger and bitterness. She moved out the first chance she had, even if she had barely enough money to get by.
And here's my progress report:
Charisma: Level 6
Baking: Level 6
Criminal Career: Level 5
Aspiration: 3/4
Living in Needs TLC Apartment
Currently Pregnant With Twins
Have Claimed to be Criminal Mastermind to Everyone she Knows
This CC didn't work well with her pregnancy lol (she's third trimester here)
Here she is in labour and giving birth at the hospital! Her sister came with her, because let's just say things didn't work out with the father of the twins
Baby Sakura! (The heir)
and baby Rosa!
And now for some...fun? glitches.
Finally, here are some photos of Sakura and Rosa as toddlers (Sakura is in pink, Rosa is in purple)
Now, I'd like to add to the story I've got going, because it's fun.
After moving out from her parents' house, Lucinda quickly finds a job that she feels like she could actually enjoy. She's out working in the streets for...someone, and although she isn't being paid much, she's having a great time!
Meanwhile, her love life is pretty adventurous. Lucinda was never one to enjoy commitment, so at the moment, she is enjoying her bachelorette life and playing the field!
Unfortunately for Lucinda, playing the field often ends in disaster, and she is no exception. Lucinda has fallen pregnant to a lazy slob, and the minute she tells him about her pregnancy, he leaves her alone, and she hasn't seen him since.
During her pregnancy, Lucinda continues to work. Her pregnancy is miserable. She has to deal with the morning sickness and other health issues all by herself, and of course she still has to work to put food on the table.
When she went into labour, the only friend she had to call was her sister, Athena. The two of them go to the hospital, where Lucinda has a short labour and gives birth to twin girls!
The first moment she saw her little girls, she immediately feels something she hasn't felt before: love. Although she was never in a position to be a good parent, these little girls are what she's needed her whole life. All her life, all she wanted is to be loved, to have validation, and now she has babies who she can love with all her heart, and who will, in return, love her with all their hearts. At least, that is the plan.
Lucinda loves her twins, but she sure as heck isn't a good parent. But hey, she thinks she deserves credit where it is due. They didn't die or get taken away! and to her, that is an accomplishment in itself. Her babies are growing up to be bratty, bad mannered toddlers, and Lucinda has no idea what to do about it. But when she meets Venessa, that all changes...
