Back to this family’s Introduction | On to Part 2
Okay. this family is a big melting pot of sims.. but that’s sorta how Foster families work, right? At least, I think so.
First thing I do is some furnishing upgrades in the house. I end up changing something in pretty much every room to make this house work for this many sims. I also move things around in the master bedroom, move the master bath, and add in another bedroom for the fifth kid.
The new Master bed and bath.
Skylar (right) and Parker’s rooms.
Carina’s room, and a shower I added instead of a tub.
Neal and Brantley’s (left) rooms.
The dining room was on the other side of the house.. no way they were going to use it. So here’s my solution.
Family room/study.
The new laundry room and half bath.
The media room and the old dining room, which is now a playroom/games room.
The new monkey bars. True fact: I broke my wrist when I was young falling off the monkey bars. I was ticked, too, because there was a pool party I had to miss the next day.
Kev getting his job.
Lucille setting an 11 PM curfew. She’s going to be a stay at home mom.
Neal painting. If you remember, we saw him in the Landgraab’s house. He’s the teen that Malcolm beat up. LOL.
Skylar playing piano.
Awww.
Hey, it’s not so bad, Brantley. It’s your aspiration, remember?
Working out with Dad.
Breakfast made.. and aren’t you supposed to wash your hands before you eat?
The never-ending job begins.
Autonomously hugging a stinky Brantley.
Skylar chatting on the computer.
The kids go to the park for their aspiration.. and I spot Yuki Behr playing with them. And an idea pops into my head…. so Neal gets brought to the park.
What better way to get to know a girl.. join her club! I’ve never messed with clubs much, so this should be fun. If I remember to go to gatherings.
Chatting up Yuki in the rain.
One of the club tasks is doing homework.. so that’s what they’re doing.
Aww.. I think they look good together. Also: note who showed up in the background. It’s mom, who followed these two teens here of her own accord, checking up on them?
Getting to know her a little bit better. Then it was time to head home before curfew.
Bedtime snacks.
Guess what?? It’s Summerfest! Skylar has breakfast before the festivities begin.
Brantley and Skylar have a water balloon fight, but it doesn’t work too well because there’s so much in the way of landscaping in the back yard…
Neal gets hit practically in the face… poos guy. Maybe he shouldn’t have joined in on the fight…?
Watching sports as a family.
After removing the water balloon bucket since it wasn’t working too well, I added in a water slide instead.. and it turned out to be a big hit.
… It’s not Neal’s day, huh?
Parker’s just too cool for all of this, apparently.
Playing darts.. wonder who will win?
Way to go, Skylar!
Helping out with chores.
Asking for advice from Mom. It’s so hard being a teenager…
Little Carina helps out, too, while Skylar and Brantley do their homework. Skylar doesn’t seem to be having any fun doing it. LOL.
Excuse me, young man… there’s leftovers in the fridge.. why are you trying to kill yourself?
Making more leftovers just to be sure.
This was where they congregated .. in a heat wave.
Brantley apparently had a rough night and is hitting the coffee right after school.
Kev celebrates his promotion by watching more sports.
This place seems to be a Sim-magnet. Before long, Skylar overheated and had to run inside.. where I promptly turned up the AC.
Neal chatting with his mom while painting.
Neal invited Yuki over, and decided since they were now good friends, he’d put the moves on her.
What a face, Neal.. it’s not that serious, is it??
Well, then. I stand corrected. Young love! Yuki responds to the first kiss with a long kiss of her own right afterwards. I would say these two are making a fine couple!!
Skylar chatting with Lucille.
While the kids are at school… Mom pigs out on buttered popcorn. That sounds good… I can’t blame her one bit!
Then, she decides to start learning to bake.. um.. you’re supposed to crack the egg before putting it in the batter, silly…
Somehow, she ends up with excellent sugar cookies anyway. (Watch for the crunchy bits?? LOL)
“I am so not fixing this on my own!!” … calls the Handyman.
Homework party in a more appropriate spot. Brantley seems to have gotten sick overnight, so after this we make him drink some medicine.
… Because he has to go out with his dad. Both needed to work out at the gym for their aspiration.. so off they went.
Apparently Brantley looked like he needed help, because the trainer came over of his own accord to help him out.
Skylar! Not you, too! *sigh* Teenagers and grills. They scare me. Well, it’s Wednesday night, which is a good place to stop for the first half the week. See you next time!
Back to this family’s Introduction | On to Part 2
House 008 Chapter 5 < | > House 008 Chapter 7
Checking the goals:
House 008 Building Goals: Have a 5 Bedroom, 2 Bathroom (minimum) house worth at least 50k (value complete) House 008 Generational Goals: Complete the Writer (Author) career with adoptions at the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd promotions (all adoptions done) Have a Young Adult heir (child) Each of the three adoptees and the biological heirs are controllable and responsible for completing one of the child aspirations: Social Butterfly - Reese (Bookworm, Hot-Headed) Rambunctious Scamp - Karen (Art Lover) Whiz Kid - Chantal (Insider, Gloomy) Artistic Prodigy - Eva (Dog Lover) (all four aspirations complete)
The only things left are Damien’s last promotion (he’s getting close), and a whole bunch of time while Eva ages up to Young Adult. As I previously said, this is going to be a long house…. but at least there will be one birthday for sure in this update.
First thing I do … is something I should have done ages ago… add some custom holidays. They’re totally lacking from the game, and I think my Ramblers saves will truly be better for having them. That being said, here they are:
Now, into the play time. 🙂
Damien putting the finishing touches on a Book of Life for Eva.
I decide to give Damien a new aspiration – Big Happy Family.. and here he is reading to the kids. Eva is just adorable. I can’t help but smile at her faces.
Dryer’s broken again, but Chantal doesn’t mind.. she’s too busy hunting food.
The evening’s ghost takes over the juice bar.
Damien decorating for Winterfest.
… Had to move the TV to make room for the tree, but it was worth it.
Reese sets the table.. all by herself. What a good girl!
The Grand Meal as a family. Everyone is chatting and having a good time. I keep watching all the green relationship pluses going above their heads.
Waiting for Father Winter…
Apparently waiting for him got boring, because Karen started randomly running around cleaning the house.
Karen’s first…
LOOK at that face!! How can you not love Eva.. and Karen’s pretty cute, too.
Reese’s turn.
Chantal’s turn.
Karen’s being nosy, trying to see what is in dad’s present.
Family gift time!
What did you get there, Eva? Anything good?
… Apparently not. Coal. Poor kid.
Don’t remember what Kayla got, but she clearly was not impressed.
Eva cheers right back up, though, so it must not have been too horrible.
One of the gifts was a robot vacuum’s dock, so I went ahead and got them the robot, too. And then had Damien upgrade it.
He needed level 8 Handiness, though, so we did some more upgrades to the stove to level up. Other presents included a lump of clay, and a doctor’s playset from Father Winter to Eva, so those got put out, as well. The rest of the presents weren’t all that interesting, and were sold.
The next day, we have a MAJOR blizzard (see the house picture in the header.. lol) .. and the poor Mail-lady is clearly not dressed for the weather. Put some clothes on!
They all RUN inside after school. and Chantal does not look pleased.
Karen, our cheerful little bug, looks pleased, while Eva looks more bemused than anything else. I just love these kids! So cute!
Chantal’s having a mood swing. No wonder she looked unhappy.
… So is Reese. Not a good day for teenagers, I guess.
Homework party .. while the vacuum heads off to do it’s thing. … And why is there bacon and eggs on the dock… and is that pancakes on top of the robot?? *facepalm* Oh dear, EA…. why.
… The teens are back doing well, and Kayla is helping Eva with her homework all by herself. Despite her juice addiction, she’s a great mom. Oh, and as you can see on the new coffee table… someone already shaped the clay into a teapot. How cute.
Is it bad that I have the most fun watching the little robot work? And purposely leave messes for it to clean up?
This is such a social and interesting family to play. I love all the time I spend on this save. Much more so than previous drifter houses.
Reese finds the clay.
Birthday time! I told you there’d be one in this update! Nearly everyone is celebrating, except for poor Eva, who’s working on her second aspiration.
Oh my gosh, I love her! She grew up so pretty!
Here’s what she rolled, so I immediately get her a job.
Her new room.
Oh, and the updated study. I changed out the bookcase for the one that Damien got from work promotions. This photo is also to remind me to put in Damien’s new reputation..
… Apparently he’s really a good guy. (But, then, we knew that.)
Bribing more Paparazzi to leave so they don’t have to freeze outside.
… Later, completely inexplicably, Reese gets into a fight with some random sim outside the house. What the heck??
… There. That’s a better thing to do, Reese.
Woohoo!
The teens eating a late dinner before bed.
While Eva churns out her Emotion potions for her aspiration.
Aww.. they still love each other. I totally didn’t tell them to do this.
New Year’s Eve confetti, and everyone is getting in their resolutions (Except for poor Kayla, who’s uncontrollable.)
Damien’s is to lose weight. I’ve been noticing a he’s a little on the chunky side lately.
Reese’s .. is to gain skill. Most everyone else’s is either to get a promotion or do better in school.
.. Not another mood swing, this time it’s just Karen working on her Charisma for work.
Playing at the clay again, I see.
Karen, honey, you may want to move the other hand out of the way of the knife while you try to learn cooking…
..Everyone else watches a movie while Karen toils away in the kitchen.
What a pretty day. Since the only thing left on the Whiz Kid aspiration is getting an “A”, I start working on Social Butterfly. My favorite.. (sarcasm).
While Karen finds a potential boyfriend. Aren’t they cute together?
BFFs for the aspiration.
And since it’s the first day of Spring, it’s a good place to stop. With any luck, we’ll get far enough to see some more birthdays in the next update, and we’ll definitely see one of my new holidays. Should be fun!
House 008 Chapter 5 < | > House 008 Chapter 7
Back to the welcome page | On to Chapter 1.2
First of all, welcome to my new challenge!! I’ve been looking for a “do everything” challenge for The Sims 4, and have been working on one save with just that intention… but I’ve been increasingly disappointed that the challenges I was trying to mash together just didn’t follow what I was hoping to do. So.. when in doubt.. write a new challenge. And that’s just what I did. I could have used my old save, but for some reason, my sim didn’t trigger the achievement she should have, and the whole save in general was annoying me.. so I’m starting over. My old save wasn’t blogged, but I feel like I’ll enjoy it more if I blog it, so here we go. First thing I did was pick out the two goal sets I’ll start working on… and make sims to match them. So I’ll start off by introducing my sims and where they’re living.
Brayden Ireland – Materialistic, Ambitious, Clumsy, Bestselling Author
Set #1 - Author - Brayden Get to Level 10 in the Writer career (Author) Master the Writing Skill Complete the Bestselling Author Aspiration Write at least 2 Excellent Books in Every Genre Write 5 Books of Life and Bind Them to Sims
Heidi Ireland – Creative, Art Lover, Cheerful, City Native
Set #19 - Art Critic - Heidi Get to level 10 of the Critic career (Art Critic) Complete and Display the Snow Globes and City Posters Collection Perform as a statue for at least two hours Complete the City Native aspiration Win a Karaoke Contest Have level 10 Singing skill Travel to all festivals at least once
I moved them into the city, since the City Living aspiration seems to require it, and I figure it’s a good starting place for my challenge. The next generation can move out into the wide world.. hopefully with more money. I chose the 930 Medina Studios apartment, and upon loading, made a few changes. I moved the computer to the master bedroom, added an easel, and transformed the master closet into a second bathroom.
It’s a gloomy spring day, but they’re getting to know each other. It seems to be going well!
Skilling… I do a LOT of that this chapter, so I don’t take a huge amount of pictures of it.
The humor and Hijinks Fest. They’re joking with each other.. I think.
Making a friend to give her key to for her aspiration. Go Heidi.
Getting started on learning recipes. I know I don’t need to for this goal-set, but it’s something I’ve never done before, so I thought I’d get as close as possible.
…Writing more books.
.. Tasting new food…
… Noisy Neighbors. LOL Hm. The pitfalls of apartments.
Then, the very next day, the neighbor in quest gets mad at us for making too much noise! OOF… anooying.
I spy collectibles!! Hurry and buy!
Oh, look who I finally found!
Cool. Now, soon as I have time, I can send her out for that busking goal of hers.
Spice fest is in town. We pick up all the harvestables, and try the challenge, but fail. A little too early on that one, Heidi.
It’s Love Day, so I send them out on a date. It doesn’t go very well. People keep interrupting their conversation, or making it awkward.. and then these Celebs kept showing up.. it was a hot mess.
The best conversation of the night… was in the bathrooms. At least nobody bothered them in there.
I stopped it at bronze.. so I have that completed.
Eating more food. Ignore the outline on the table. I’m not sure how I managed to forget to move the mouse. 🙁 (Oh, she’s at the Flea Market, by the way.)
A karaoke contest starts, so I figure we’ll join it. She’s not very good at it yet.
… But a crowd shows up anyway. Not sure whether they’re cheering her on or jeering at her…
A bedroom update.. and more skilling.
Bills paid, and a few books published. I am saving way too many books to help me keep count of what he’s written. I’ll make a note at the end of this chapter with how far he’s gotten on that.
Geek Con. Heidi tried the contests, and failed.. but hey, it was fun.
… And it was even more fun when Brayden got off work….
Wheee!
Hehe. One achievement down.. a million to go.
Still too hot for you, huh? Better keep practicing. And why they keep eating at this desk, I have no idea. 🙁
More skills..
While he’s at work, Heidi works on her writing.
Romance Fest is in town, so we get them engaged…
.. And try for a quick wedding….
… It was apparently not-to-be. 🙁 One down.
And there goes the other one…!
Painting graffiti for work.
Humor and Hijinks fest comes around again… and just in time, too, Heidi needs to shoot off fireworks there for her aspiration.
Ooops. Good going, Heidi. You’re not supposed to stand THAT close!
I love the fireworks, though.
Jokesters won again! More money!
Finally. Got the last poster. Here’s the whole set, displayed. (Still working on the Snow Globes)
Proof.
I’d been looking for a protestor for DAYS.. I send Heidi to work.. and a protest finally starts. They’re so rare, I bring her home from work immediately to donate for her aspiration. Now to wait for the Romance fest again.
Nope. Spicefest.
However, they both made it through!!
… And here’s a note on her progress on food stall food. Not bad.
Brayden’s book count… he’s doing well, too. I got him the Creative Visionary Trait and that seems to be helping. So far, the hardest to get done was the Sad books. It’s hard to get them sad. I had to just keep trying to ask about love on the future cube until it said no, and use that sadness to get it done.
2 Children’s Book
2 Sad Books
2 Short Story Books
2 Motivational(Confident) Books
2 Playful Books
2 Poetry Books
2 Romance (Flirty) Books
2 Workout Guide (Energized) Books
2 Non-Fiction Books
Screenplay
Fantasy Books
Science Fiction Books
Mystery Books
Biography
On that note.. this is a good place to end. Getting her took almost three days of play because there was so much to get done for both of them.. but here’s where they are now:
Funds.. are doing ok. Could be a lot better, but holding back on publishing the books for so long really set them back.
.. Still waiting on romance fest to come around again…
Heidi’s doing very well at her career, though. Despite coming home early that one day.
Just thought this was interesting. She doesn’t need them for her goals, but it was fun to get anyway.
Really low on the Royalties scale so far, but that should catch up fast now that the books in question are finally published, and he’s finally down to writing the books that make more money.
The writer career always seems to take longer than necessary, but at least he’s coming along okay.
Oh, and as for the seasons.. it’s nearly winter. I’ve played 3/4 of the year.. and still no babies. Had too much in the way of other things to do. There will be offspring next time, though. I promise that!
See you in the next post!

It sounded like so much fun, I had to get one started right away.
Update: this is still active. When I have time. Still have so much to do!!

Each Social Event must be completed once at Bronze, once at Silver, and once at Gold to count.

House 008 Chapter 4 < | > House 008 Chapter 6
Checking the goals:
House 008 Building Goals: Have a 5 Bedroom, 2 Bathroom (minimum) house worth at least 50k (value complete) House 008 Generational Goals: Complete the Writer (Author) career with adoptions at the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd promotions (all adoptions done) Have a Young Adult heir (child) Each of the three adoptees and the biological heirs are controllable and responsible for completing one of the child aspirations: Social Butterfly - Reese (Bookworm, Hot-Headed) Rambunctious Scamp - Karen (Art Lover) Whiz Kid - Chantal (Insider, Gloomy) Artistic Prodigy - Eva (Dog Lover)
The house is nearly complete. And there’s still a long way to go, yet. We’ll end up with a boatload of extra money. LOL. Writer career is at level 9, and that and Eva’s aspiration (and growing up) are all that there is left to do. Also, I have to apologize for the last two posts. Apparently I couldn’t remember Kayla (the mom’s) name… I kept calling her Kyla or Kyra… but all has been fixed, I went back and edited in the correct name. Sorry Kayla. So, with that being said, here we go!
The kids… all occupied. At least Reese is doing her homework.
Sister love. Awww.
Chantal tries her hand at Cooking.. Garden Salad, of course.
While everyone else (it seems) watches Eva working on her aspiration.
Damien de-lint-ifying the dryer. No fear of fire there!
Chantal gardening before bed. Can just barely see her!
Another necessary upgrade. Fireproof.
I think I forgot to post Reese’s new room. So here it is. Shortly after this photo, I notice I forgot to remove the anti-monster light and it’s now gone.
Reese doing laundry. Because the basket is full. Again.
A ghost is the first to find the new computers.
Then goes about cleaning the house.. what a good (angry) ghost.
Reese, working on her new aspiration. Not like we need more money, though…
Getting in her instrument practice.
Someone else finds the computer.. and Reese is still painting.
The other girls take a break to hang with mom for a while.
… Eva! You should know better! *facepalm* .. I make her clean it up.
On to bigger and (hopefully) better things.
DAMIEN! What?! Why?! Are you breaking the dollhouse….
Silly Hot-Headedness. Now fix it.
Working on the five pictures part of her aspiration…
Wait. What in the world kinda animal is THAT?! .. Nice one, Eva.
Reese gets a promotion at her babysitting job. YAY Reese.
While Eva continues to toil away at those five pictures. Spoiler.. she doesn’t manage to get all the way through them by bed time.
The next morning, Damien breaks the computer while writing… fixes it.. finishes the book..
… publishes it.. and..
Gets his fourth star! It’s at this point that I notice there’s someone hanging out on the front walk…
Oh, really?…. I give her an autograph…
.. Then bribe her to leave. Can’t have someone freezing to death on my watch. It’s COLD out there!
Yet again, something to fix before work.
… Errrr.. No. .. But thanks?
Our first teenage mood swing.
And: yup – it’s monday. Damien helps with Chantal’s Electricity project.
Karen works alone..
Eva miserably continues to try to finish her five pictures. While dreading her project (behind her)
Ran out of room for projects.. and it’s too cold outside.. so they’re in mom and dad’s room for Reese’s Robotics project.
Random person who was not invited wandering around the house. I think it may be the nanny from when the kids were littler… but still, she wasn’t invited…
..One project done. Good. Literally. That’s what it was on quality.
So much happening in this photo. Dad is scavenging through his earlier repair leftover parts… Chantal is going to do her homework.. and Reese.. is destroying the dollhouse while she’s supposed to be doing her project. I make Damien fix it, and send Reese back to work.
… Random person helping herself to our juice bar. (Which I got because Kayla is still struggling with a juice addiction the game says she doesn’t have. Turns out ORANGE JUICE is triggering it, and I compromise by just making her get an OJ every time she gets angry (instead of cheating to make the missing trait come back and then go away again.).. I figure it’s the lesser of two evils… since she won’t voluntarily get one or use the new juice bar.)
Kayla going to make something.. while Chantal does her homework.
I send in the cavalry to help with poor Eva’s project so she can get back to work on her aspiration.
… And since Reese still needs help, I invite random sim lady to do something helpful.
Yay! An excellent volcano!
A “good” castle…
… And a “good” robot. Poor Reese. She tried so hard.
Again, Reese???
The next day after school So much happening. Eva exercising, Reese stressed from too much school, Chantal having our second teen mood swing.. and Karen wandering into the house like nothing happened.
After calming Chantal down, everyone is back to work.
That stubborn aspiration…
… is finally done!!
.. So I get her started on the next one. Who knows what she’ll have to do next generation, and I’d like to be as prepared as possible.
I was hoping to get the next day of Winterfest and the day after that’s Birthday into this post.. but again.. it’s long enough already. We’ll see those next time.

The house is coming along great. Value is done, but I’m far from where I’d like it to be decoration-wise. But there’s plenty of time left for that, and the funds are certainly still coming in, so it shouldn’t be an issue. I fully expect this to be a house win. I think the only thing that could go wrong is the heir dying (knock on wood). That being said, there’s a long way still to go on this house, because the heir is still a toddler. The parents could very well be gone before we finish getting the heir aged up. Again, crossing fingers for luck that that isn’t what happens. (Oh, and featured image… isn’t the house gorgeous?! I love it with the fall decor.)
.. Since we left you last time with some school projects in progress.. here’s Karen’s complete. She got a “good,” even with the help.
I then finally get around to finishing the parent’s bedroom. Shown here:
I like it. Going for bright colors in this house, as I think I said before.
Damien and Eva playing together. I swear, Eva is just SO cute. I hope she stays that way.
Reese’s project. An Excellent, and done all by herself!
Another self-completed excellent project. Good job, Chantal.
Another ghostly visitor. This one’s sad. But who knows why?
… So she breaks the sink, then complains about being uncomfortable because of the puddle mess… Sigh. Ghosts.
… Oops. Was too busy watching the ghost.
Yikes, Kayla .. don’t set the place on fire. That reminds me. I need to put in a sprinkler system for safety since we’re going to have so many teenagers.
… Fixing the broken sink. Why is something always broken in this house??
I elect to wall off the kitchen and do some upgrades to it. And yes, I got a sprinkler system. Safe.
Yup. Here goes the laundry chore. But I made that alcove specifically for it, so I went ahead and used it. We’ll have enough teenagers who are able to do it to keep up with it. I hope.
Karen working on her aspiration. At least it’s not raining for once. Note the swingset is broken – lightning apparently hit it the last storm.
That’s another goal complete!
Oops. Damien is always working so hard.
The ghost cleaning up the potty again. I love it when they clean house.
Level nine Writing career!! One more to go! And we’ve got plenty of time.
Back to work on that writing skill….
Hooray, Damien!
Really? Doing your homework on the newly fixed swingset? .. Well, okay. At least you’re doing it.
Where are you going, Chantal? (While watching the ghost cleaning the potty.. again.)
Yay!! Our first teenager!
Oh, no, Chantal. What are you wearing.. and THAT hair?? You’re going to drive me crazy by the end of this challenge. Makes me doubt my decision to not change non-heir’s clothes and that only when they age to the next generation. Oh.. dear. *facepalm*
Her rolled traits.. (She rolled Big Happy Family for her aspiration.. not happening..not in this family..)
.. and the rolled job. I’m going to ignore the hobbies for this challenge, I think.. although I appreciate that createarandomsim.com added them. (Which is the site I use for random rolls)
Oh yeah.. and her newly re-done bedroom.
… Harvestfest! .. And our first gnome fail.
.. Our second gnome fail.
“Please forgive me??”
“Yes!”
“Please forgive me?”
“Nope.” … Me – “Forget these gnomes..” SELL.
Chantal working on her gardening skill for work. And because she’s now the designated gardener.
Working on her Charisma skill.
Homework.
Damien is still writing books in his “spare” time. He’s getting close to four star celeb. Maybe he’ll even get there.
Making tofu-turkey. I’m seriously hoping Eva doesn’t roll Vegetarian. It’s such a pain to have one in the household!
Kayla helping Chantal with homework.. but she doesn’t seem to appreciate it. Damien is cheering because… ?? I guess the meal?
Family grand meal. The end of Harvestfest.. and thankfully, everyone but the uncontrollable mom got it done successfully.
Working on that last point of Logic for his job.
.. Logic done.. now it’s time to raise Handiness so we can upgrade some household items.
Eva… guess what Daddy’s making??
Oh, yay! She’s gorgeous!! She rolled Dog Lover. (Well, guess I know one thing that’s happening next generation… lol.. even if the goals are going to be a surprise.. we’ll be getting a puppy!)
Eva’s new room.
Doing homework while waiting on Reese to get home for her turn at the cake.
.. The marathon of upgrading the household begins.. now that he’s set for his next promotion.
Happy Birthday, Reese!
.. Another weird outfit. But she rolled that she wants to be a painter.. so I guess it’s .. artistic??
.. Her traits.
Her first action: calling for her rolled job.
Babysitter! Hey, at least that works with her Charisma skill from childhood.
And…. I have more pictures.. but this post is long enough already. So we’ll see you next time!
House 008 Chapter 3 < | > House 008 Chapter 5
Back to this family’s Introduction | Week Two coming soon
This particular house was pretty fast to play through, lots of fast forward skilling and working for the two of them.. The next family will have much more interest!
I did some upgrading to the house, pretty much all upstairs (except a high chair down in the dining room)…
Since Katrina’s daughters have moved out, there was plenty of room to convert the bedrooms and the spare bath into something .. more interesting.
A workout room and sauna…
… A nursery. (Wonder what that’s for.. hehe)
And the upstairs balcony into a meditation retreat for Katrina.
After these pictures, I also traded out the bathtub upstairs for a shower/tub combo, and threw in a rock climbing wall in the back yard instead of the gardening stuff I couldn’t see either of them using. 🙂 LOL
The first thing I did was change jobs for Katrina. The new actress career is PERFECT for her, and Don is a good fit for the Bodybuilder career.
Practicing Charisma.
Working out.
Don.. aren’t you supposed to be working out, not checking out her butt??
Chatting away.
Still talking.
STILL talking… er… flirting.
Sauna woohoo.
Katrina apparently wore the youngster out. ROFL.
Their first date.
Dinner was late in coming, so I had them perform a romance scene for tips. They made about $100 off that one scene. Also: note the baby bump.
Welcome Devin Caliente!
Date #2 – they’re at the gym if you can’t tell from the dark photo. Gold date, too.. when the other one only got silver. Go figure.
Don decides to grill of his own accord, so I take a picture in case he sets himself on fire. LOL. All ends up okay, though.
Katrina at work. She ended up getting three promotions this week, and is set for another gig on Monday.
Practicing acting while waiting for boyfriend Don to get home.
… But apparently being a team mascot is hard work. He won’t be much help this evening! Guess no date for Love Day. (They already skipped Easter by being too busy with work)
Turns out Katrina wasn’t far behind Don. Definitely nothing left for date night.
Aww.. a little redhead. Devin rolled Fussy. Ohh boy.
Breakfast.
… While the boys play upstairs.
Teaching him to talk. With all the Charisma in this house, he’s gotta start early.
And Don finished the week not a mascot anymore. Good job!
Aww. Cute little family unit. See you next family for another big family madhouse!
Back to this family’s Introduction | Week Two coming soon
House 008 Chapter 2 < | > House 008 Chapter 4
Checking the goals:
House 008 Building Goals: Have a 5 Bedroom, 2 Bathroom (minimum) house worth at least 50k House 008 Generational Goals: Complete the Writer (Author) career with adoptions at the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd promotions (all adoptions done) Have a Young Adult heir (infant) Each of the three adoptees and the biological heirs are controllable and responsible for completing one of the child aspirations: Social Butterfly - Reese (Bookworm) Rambunctious Scamp - Karen (Art Lover) Whiz Kid - Chantal (Insider) Artistic Prodigy - Eva
The house is coming along nicely… currently it’s at about 36k worth, I’m very sure I won’t have any problem finishing it. As for the Writer career, he’s halfway through level 7, so that should be good too.
When we last played, the girls were working on their school projects. They finished, the volcano was a “good”, while the solar system was an “excellent”. Still.. good job for both, since they did it without help.
I buy the unbreakable toilet and a decent sink for the master bath.
… And the kitchen finally has a sink!
A dining room! The cornucopia goes away, because they didn’t want to eat at the table with it on there.
Oh my gosh. That face…!! Too cute. Karen’s being rebellious, but when she makes that face I can’t be mad at her.
Reese getting some fun before working on her aspiration.
.. And that’s the end of that toilet. I resolve to buy another unbreakable one.
A ghostly visitor takes offense at our poor dollhouse.
Oh, NOW you’re sorry about it?!
A friend for Reese. Two more to go.
A helpful specter?
Aww.. They’re sleeping!
Karen playing with Damien.
Friend #2. I. Hate. This. Aspiration. LOL.
Chantal working on her aspiration. Getting close now. Just need that “A” and a couple points of mental skill.
Level 8 Writing Career! He’s had a long day, though.
… See?
A little bit of living room.
… Which Karen thinks is cause for celebration, apparently.
Kayla and I have had a FIT this time around. I think I finally discovered what her problem was. When she lost her fame, she somehow didn’t completely lose her Juiced up quirk. I googled it, and tried to figure it out, and finally had to cheat-add her fame back, add the quirk, remove said quirk, and remove the fame again. All worked well after that.. and she’s (as you can see above).. finally participating in the family again. Why she chose gardening, I don’t know. But I’m not going to complain.
Awww… welcome Eva! SO cute! Totally love my heir now. She even got the red hair that I love.
Time to age up Karen…
Who apparently has poofy hair and a bunny tail outfit. *shrug* to each his own, I guess. She rolled Rambunctious Scamp and Art Lover.
Oh yeah.. and Eva rolled Angelic. That’ll make this easier.
Damien working on the now-necessary-for-work logic skill while Eva plays quietly.
… There’s always something to do in this house!
One goal complete!!
After school homework party.
A real bathroom!!
I missed some pictures somewhere, because Karen growing up gave Reese another kid friend, and then there was another adult friend in there somewhere.
However, the aspiration is still complete, so I’m happy!!
The house is slowly getting better…
Well, Reese, if you’re going to do your homework there, at least be quiet about it!
Everyone loves the swingset.
… And when I add the monkey bars, apparently it keeps them out there even in the rain.
Homework on the swings… in the rain. I guess that’s definitely Extra Credit!
Everyone running inside… (The black haired girl is the nanny)
All watching TV .. inside.. because.. (Well, Reese is on the chess set.. so most everyone)
… Of this. Not my best lightning photo, but it gets the point across. 🙂
Oh my gosh.. she’s so cute with that sippy cup. SQUEEE!
Damien gets this at work. I go ahead and sell the movie rights..
And when he publishes his next two books.. he gets this…
… Woohoo. Officially the highest level celeb I’ve ever had yet.
Doing a house check..
Notice Kayla and Damien got a new bed… finally.
… Then after the house check I finally decided to splurge with their cash and do some painting.
Nice, bright colors… I like it!
Aww.. I forgot her birthday. Sorry Kayla.
… It must be monday again. School Projects.
Karen had invited a friend over, and had other stuff to do before starting work on hers, so she asked for help.
… Reese is just too cool for help.
Damien is upstairs, writing. As usual.
And our adorable heir is playing with Bearicula.
Next time: Eva grows up to child, and toddlers are no more in this household. YAY!
Back to this family’s Introduction | Week Two coming soon Before I start play, I notice one major problem. Summer actually does have a job, unlike what I said in her introduction. She’s in the Chef career, so her roll to join the business career is null and void. Beyond that, the house will eventually need […]
Back to this family’s Introduction | Week Two coming soon Before playing, I set up the living room a little bit, changing up the walls around the kitchen and adding a fireplace for Father Winter. Spending some time getting to know each other. They make a cute couple.. good job, EA. Surprise! (Or not…) Awww.. this […]
Back to this family’s Introduction | Week Two coming soon This week is Ollie Purdue’s sister, and her girlfriend-to-be, Jade Rosa. The house didn’t need much in the way of changes, and they had enough in saving s I thought I could move them, but it wasn’t to be. Maybe next week. Jade and Cassidy hit […]
Back to this family’s Introduction | Week Two coming soon Upon getting ready to load up this family, I am not sure why, but I was just not “feelin’” it. In an attempt to make it more “interesting”.. the first thing I did was take one of EA’s officially-made dog households and merge it into this […]
Back to this family’s Introduction | Week Two coming soon We start this family just as winter is ending, so the above shot in spring was taken a bit later. I didn’t, again, have too much to do to the house to make it livable – just redecorate the second bedroom/workout area/office into a room for […]
House 005 Chapter 3 | House 006 Chapter 2 First – checking on the new goals: House 006 Building Goals: 350,000 value home (8 beds, one of them a double @ minimum) – I chose the extreme challenge and am starting with 0 simoleons. House 006 Generational Goals: One sim to Level Mansion Baron Aspiration […]
Back to this family’s Introduction | Week Two coming soon Upon loading this family up.. my first thought was “Oh yay! A house I don’t have to do anything to!” I did end up adding a few things as the week went by, namely the computer for Andre and bar for June’s Mixology skill.. and the […]
Back to Part 1 | Week Two (coming soon) (And we’re back. Time to find out what happens to the Goths in the rest of their first week! I still have two Holidays to go through, one made by the game, and Spooky Day by me.) Now that it officially looks like Fall outside, Mortimer […]
Back to this family’s Introduction | Part Two Again, before starting I had some redecorating to do. Not much.. but I end up doing a bit more as the week goes by. Bella got her babysitting job, and Alexander joined the scouts, but other than that things were fine in the career department. Again, photos […]
Back to this family’s Introduction | Week Two coming soon Time for our second family! This family is the officially released Spooky Stuff family, so I stuffed them into the house that was also released on the gallery for the same pack. Before starting this post, I took a couple pictures of how I decorated this […]
