    LOVE the children's play area and gazebo! The cow plant protecting the chickens made me :lol: The colors and wallpaper choices are calm and soothing... definitely a home in which a Sim can relax! The "extra" with the dive well... how funny and totally like something I would do :wink:

    Ali, you did a fabulous job on that Sim! He has a futuristic look to him as well as a future baby maker look! And your lot... oh my... how awesome! Totally love it!

    Addie, love the cat nap. And I know. I kept typing up my responses and more stuff just kept dropping in! Thank you for taking the time to give everyone such lovely comments! (And, Simlish isn't really so very hard to understand if you have a great imagination!)

    Jenny, I loved the Sims and their story and look forward to seeing more.

    Brighty, your lot was almost as bright as you! I loved the pretty internet cafe with its outdoors dining. Such great architecture!

    Baxter, I love the multi-purpose community lot. They are so challenging. You did a great job (and I find it amazing that two out of the three signs are the same ones I chose for the bakery/bar/lounge/bookstore/cafe/nectary lot I'm playtesting now for Ivanna!)

    Hannelore, such a nice home with so much to offer. I really love all the outside and indoors activities!

    Caught up on rec's and comments, I think.

    Sahara is an adorable kind of cat!*squeal* I love the rustic style of Potters Cottage, it would look perfect in Dragon Valley or Monte Vista. Then there is Beachy Keen Modern, the complete opposite but again very well done - something for every sim here! :mrgreen:
    Rec'd all.

    Thank you very much skyegiovanni. :D<3

    This house was built in Monte Vista, on the 19x19 lot. It is a two bedroom, 1.5 bath two story home. I will make a separate thread, and link it here with the pictures.

    I also have a big surprise for you, when I write up what happened just before the save. :-)

    Awe, thank you Becky. :oops: :mrgreen: I still can't believe your my gifting buddy. So neat! ^_^ *hugs*

    Winston Bailey sounds like a talented artistic sim and he's a fellow Gemini. ^_^ I've never really sculpted with sims before, so I look forward to playing with him. :D Oh, I get an excuse to play in Monte Vista too! I look forward to reading his story when I dl him and his family.

    Thank you! I am going to rec him now and add him to my favorites so I can dl him and the other gifts when I play. :D

    I'm sorry my gift isn't ready yet :( I expected to have my gift finished by today but I had to see a surgeon yesterday about my wrists and hands. Now from his poking and prodding I am in more pain, so my gift will probably not be ready until tomorrow or the next day as I am having to take it a bit easy.

    Oh dear! Too many people getting sick and injured! Hope everyone gets better soon!


    On a more cheerful note: I have the first of my presents all ready! :mrgreen: And then the rest will be all done tomorrow sometime before evening when we go down to visit my mom...my brother is coming to town from halfway across the country...much excitement!

    Ladydarkmoon24, I was happy to have you as my buddy! I haven't had much chance to get to know you yet, but I very much enjoyed making you this gift! I love the supernatural aspects of the game as well, though I was a bit surprised you had never had the fun of playing a mermaid or plantsim! So here's a family for you that has both! The mother is the born in-game daughter of one of my favorite sims and a lovely male sim I made special for this. ;) I played her all the way up from birth, so she has quite a few skills developed already! Hope you like them!

    The Marino Family:

    baxter_milo, your cafe looks really realistic! Great job.

    Alitoni, Karl is handsome! You used great poses for him! When I saw that picture of him as a bot I had to laugh :lol: I never tried that trait :D I love your consignment store for DV!

    XxHannelorexX , your brick house looks really good. Such a cute country kitchen. The rooms are very spacious. I like that. The secret basement is really cool.

    SciFiWarlock, Calming Gyser Starter is a great modern starter! I love the geyser. I really like the pattern you used for the roof.
    Port Wilson looks creative! It reminds me a bit of steam punk. It looks really cool.

    potterphyle, Winston and Bridget are great. Bridget hair does suit her. I never found a sim on which that hair looks good, but it looks so good on Bridget! Great job :D

    corettabarajas, I like your 2 handsome twins! Cornflower Traditional is beautiful. I love the garden of the landing. Really nice house!

    Bookworm742, such a cute baby! I like the mom too.

    edit: I forgot to say...I rec´d everything up to here!
