@ADWilson I am all done with gifting! I know I snuck in a last minute gift.. You gave me a brilliant idea, so I had to make Nona! Thank you for an awesome gift exchange!!
@oliv3 Thank you for making me beautiful gifts!! I love both builds, they are fantastic! Nellie is lovely and I love the traits you chose for her! Thank you for being an awe-sim buddy!! The store items you chose for for my gifts are perfect! I also love the colors and design concept you employed in both builds!

Thank you for letting me know.
Nona is a lovely bonus gift! So glad you snuck her in, lol
I've been playing with my gifts for hours (went to bed sooo late) and I made some screens. I tried posting a wishing cart and I send the both of you a present from within the game but there is no sign of this on My Page so I don't know what happened (or not happened) there since I have never sent in-game presents before or upload wishing cards. I used freerealestate to move in Bree's house meaning Claudia had still plenty of simoleon for her first vacation. I'm playing according to her wishes and her first two wishes were going to Egypt and being a ghostbuster (forgot how the job is called). By now I use the attic for a table to invent, the boxes with WA treasures my Sim collect and I put the two furniture pieces I need for transfiguration there (although no screen of the attic).
I apologize I'm a day later with gift 3 than planned. I had planned on having this ready for you yesterday, but hadn't been feeling well. There is one final part to come after this before the close on the 12th.
He'd been halfway down the stairs when he'd overheard his father telling his mother that he was hoping to pair Aodh off with one of the lesser princesses. Aodh'd felt himself go cold, the merest idea of being trapped into the constant formalities of the palace was enough to make him move to his sisters farm with her large brood of children. Yet, as much as he loved his nieces and nephews the concept of farm life was as appealing as serving the royal guard. Which was how several of his other siblings had avoided their fathers plans.
Then their was that letter from his Grandfather Sithigh**. He could always go to Moonlit Falls and see if his grandfather was still looking for a replacement, or stay and help whatever sibling had already gone as replacement.
Almost there, it turns out all my problems lie with my hard drive being 95% to 99% full ( big oops! ). I considered switching to the laptop but would loose to much to not having everything installed on it so I'm nursing through. Once Gift 4 is uploaded, son is going to help me move everything over to a new and much larger (1TB) hard drive.
Ditto what @ADWilson your "only" is very impressive.
Dear everyone, once I've got my final gift sorted I plan on spending time going through the thread so that I don't miss anyone's gifts. I will say that so far I've loved seeing every gift that's been "unwrapped". So many wonderful creations I might just have to finally take the dive and put everything in one world.
@Mmdrgntobldrgn
Your gifts have been checked and are good to go.
The plot thickens!
Enjoyable read and a certain Sim has thinking to do regarding choices. Like how you delivered two options for this Sim. Hope cm doesn't mind others playing with her gift, lol
Thank you for sharing screenshots from your game @SimLibby
It was fun seeing what Claudia is doing in your game. During my test run, she wished to see Egypt as well.
Bree's home looks lovely and perfect for Claudia's needs. Your idea for the attic is a good one and will be "borrowed" by others (like me!).
Hi @ADWilson the 3rd gift was my final one so I'm done as well
Thank you ever so much for hosting this most wonderful fun event Addy!!! I very much hope we didn't give you too much trouble and that you will organise another Gift Exchange sometime in the new year ... please, pretty please with a cherry on top 🧁
Take care and happy simming 🤗💐x

Thank you for letting me know.
A few things happened but the important thing is ... all Buddies got gifted. That is the purpose of this event.
As long as there is interest (and it appears there is!), I will organize and host again next year.

Claudia is having a super bunch of fun @simLibby and the house seems to suit her needs just fine, I'm super glad to see the house in game and her and you enjoying it and Claudia!
Your Gift exchanges are super fun @ADWilson I always enjoy myself the gifts and the friends in it are always super lovely and awesome! Thanks for letting me join in the fun this round!!
@BreeMiles Looks like Peaches has found the perfect home. She looks happy. I've always enjoyed watching the cats play with their food (although I've never had a cat that did that). Thanks so much for showing me what you're doing.
So, I saw only one new gift and story today, which of course I loved, @Mmdrgntobldrgn! So nice to see the line continue and a chance for fates to play out another story!
Also, I tackled the reading of the castle story and managed to download that for later play. Thank you again @SamelaRita. You know I love the story and will enjoy fixing up the castle.
Yes, the room often spins whether eyes are open or closed. I never knew a person could sleep so much! I never knew that nausea could last so long! I broke down and took pills again today and went back to bed for hours. I'm feeling better right now and actually drank some organic pear juice. I think I've lost about 10 pounds this week. Not the recommended way to lose any excess weight, but I'll take that as a plus!
Some time later I will go back and see where I left off comments and try to finish those up. For now, I THINK I've rec'd everything. The downloading and installing will have to wait.
I do have some pics I want to share and another "gift" if I feel well enough later today or tomorrow.
Again, let me say, you ALL have created such wonderful gifts this year. I can't wait to play with them in my game.
@oliv3 It's from the Oktoberfest (or possibly Octoberfest) set, which is in the holidays section of sets in the create a sim section of the store. I re-coloured it for Frieda, using some on line pictures I saw.
Only! Only!!!!! I wouldn't call them Only!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would call them amazing and unbelievable (and what a privilege too!) and with hours and hours of play in them. Plus, getting to listen to them and find out their voice and find out their story.
"Only" she says! "Only" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think I've definitely used up all the exclamation marks now...
I need to comment on some more amazing builds and gifts, but today and yesterday were full of rather too much real-life stuff (I shopped for fabric, made five cushion covers, finished painting the top half of the bureau/bookcase combo) and I didn't even get one Duolingo lesson done, mush less get well and truly distracted by what's on here. I'll be back though...
