Round 9 - Bach (Falkor)

2007-01-01T18:34:00.000-05:00

Hello all, why do I fell like I am being taken advantage of. Why did I ever invite Leia to move in our house? Let me show you what she did THIS time.

This morning she is outside with those scissors. I swear she has officially lost her mind now.

You know what happens to those who run with scissors, right? You guessed it, she cut herself and now we have her kids here.

All of this on her kid's birthday's also. Can't her kids have one day for themselves? Even in death she stole the moments from these kids.

All of them grew up well. Germesha actually spoke to us today, weird considering we really don't know this teenager at all. Hard to believe she was living here with us this whole time and we weren't friends or even close to it. She told us not to worry, she would make it all right. Give her time.

Mara just mentioned the fact that there is a murderer here in our neighborhood and reminder me about the BACH CURSE.

Leia's kids are really strange, Lealand said there was something called TD here and to avoid it, he had to wear this mask.

Next thing you know Lilly has on a mask also.

Mara just wants everyone in the house to be nicer to each other, but I don't see how that will happen at all. We still have Leia's kids here and all.

We have agreed to help Germesha out while she is at work. Here we are helping her siblings to study.

Fawn, out little angel, has a new best friend now. She said his name is "Bricky"". She loves to teach him new tricks....

Mara, you shouldn't do this while I am taking pictures, what will people think???

Fawn grew up today into a teenager. How do two fortune parents create a romantic child???

Here is what happens when you ask someone to help you repair the PC....

Does anyone recognize him? I think he was over visiting Fawn or something.

Bach Curse? There is no Bach Curse...Bastain was old, he died, end of story! Just because all the adults died on the Bach Manor house does NOT mean there is a Bach Curse. It means THAT HOUSE IS CURSED!!!

Mara and I managed to get some time alone in our house.

This is my farewell, did the MURDERER come back? Did anyone else die or change? Dunnoo.........

Round 9 - Skywalker (Lando)

2006-12-31T09:47:00.001-05:00

Let's go fly a kite! Up to the highest height. Let's go fly a kite and then be merry....

Hola amigos! How's it hanging? Lando here welcoming you to my house. I am in a great mood today as I have a good close friend coming over...

Rachel, my love, it is great to see you! Oh how I have missed you.

Here is my dear friend Rachel helping out around the house, you know

Wait one minute here! What is she doing in this house now? This was not part of my plan, why did she move in. Rachel, why did you move in??

Shhh voice from above, I am putting my baby to bed. My babies are tired and need their rest....SHHHH!!!

Gonna talk to me now Rachel? Why are you here? This was not in my plan! You are not part of the official plan for this round!!

Plans can change and have...change is good, remember??? Now be quiet for now, I have business to take care of here.

Catalin, it was really nice of you to let me stay here with you. I really appreciate it, my being homeless and all.

No problem, we are your friends.

Why do I have a bad feeling about this???

Rachel!!! Call the fire department! The hot dogs you were making are burning! RACHEL!! Call them!! Where are you Rachel??

Rubber ducky your the one and you make it lots of fun! Rubby ducky the ulitmate best friend is youuuuuu!!!

Do you hear yelling? Nope, me neither.

Tsk tsk Rachel tsk tsk. Why did you do this??

Help me!!! FIRE FIRE FIRE!!!!

{sigh} Catalin, what happened to you??? Who would have thought you would die...I KNOW Rachel didn't do this.

Think again Lando, think again....

Dontcha wish your girlfriend was hot like me? Dontcha wish you girlfriend was a freak like me? Dontcha....

Hmm, is this the real reason you are here? Me thinks so....

Have you bet Salla? Isn't she a doll?

We have bigger issues to talk about here Rachel.

Hmm, nope we don't, not right now we don't.

Lando is now mine and mine alone. I have my BABIES!!!

Rachel, you must stop this now! This is Catalin's family. You moved in and DESTROYED their family!!!

Nope, not me. Want to see my babies?

Here is my baby, Rom. He looks like his daddy some, huh?

Really now? Your baby???

Yepper mine. All mine!!

Here we have my baby Sariss!! She is the princess of the house...

Rachel, you know she is NOT your baby....

Boy oh boy, my dear Lando loves me and I love him. His pesky wife is gone...

And what hand did you have in that?? You are the reason she is gone...you!!

Oh I wish I were an Oscar Myer weiner, that is all I really like to be....

Ok, what are you doing now? Rom is sleeping out here!

An if I were an Oscar Myer weiner, everyone would be in love with ME!!!

RACHEL!!! WHAT DID YOU DO NOW????

Not me, look at who else is here. Why are you trying to blame me for EVERYTHING????

Umm, let me give you two reasons: 1 - Catalin and 2 - we just saw you making the hot dogs!!!

Oops, well everything is not what it seems.

He loves me and we are now MARRIED!! See, change can be good for all!

Uh-huh, you are a family destroyer!

Did you know we have a cat? Her name is Ariel. She is an old cat, I hope she lives a long time.

On a side note: I HATE this house and this bridge!! Nice house to view in the neighborhood, but it was not very playable!

Did you see my baby Calla now has a boy friend?

How many times do I have to tell you, these are NOT your babies!!!

Hush voice from above! My babies, my house!!

How about I tell the nice readers about what ELSE you did Rachel? How about that???

Umm, what??? You won't do that now will you?

What about the day that everyone was gone and you brought over someone???

Consenting adults, consenting....

Did you forget dear Lando? I hope not as today was my birthday! I'm "ALIVE AND KICKING!!!!

Now you have done it Rachel...now we have a ghost in the house.

Again, not MY fault...Lando should have known I don't like to share and something bad was going to happen....not MY fault!!!

You know the ghost tried to kill this nice visitor we had.

And that is my fault how???? And you know your plan was changable anyway. Not like it was totally set in stone...remember JennTSG's request??? Did you have that in your notes???

Be quiet! Enough!

Ariel died!! Ariel died !!!

Yep this one was a shocker to me also...I didn't know about the elder cat that someone bought. Time to say farewell dear readers. Maybe Catalin can take care of Rachel....she would not listen to me at all!!

Round 9 - Bach

2006-12-31T09:47:00.000-05:00

Hello friends and family! Barrymore here with our next letter of happenings in our house. Here you see my sister, Braidy and myself showing our younger brothers how to study. One of our dogs is out here also. I believe this is West.

The home venue is still going strong. You see here some of our customers love to work out. We did stop charging the customers for a little while, you know, as a 'Thanks for being loyal'.

Sad news hit our family, it seems our mother Brittany was sick and she came home from work on the first day and well, died. {sniffle}

We were all in shock and no one was able to get over there to help her out. This wacky customer watched the whole thing. What is his deal????

Then when one of my brother's shows up to mourn he muttered something about 'one down' and left. Weird!! My mom will be missed but there are 10 of us kids around here to remember her by.

Here is my sister Braidy, playing with our puppy North. Cute little puppy, I bet North will be a nice well behaved dog unlike others around this neighborhood.

Here I am, by the way. I figured I needed some sort of change to make me stand out. Aren't I handsome?? I need to be handsome so the girls will think I am a hottie!! I need some girlie lovin!!!

Here is my brother Keenan. He seems to have the family nose like I do. Don't ask about the chicken hat......

It must be some weird twin thing because Caleb did it also. I think they said the first one to take it off is the bigger chicken.

This weird person shows up a lot at our house. He was here on almost a daily basis. Right now I am getting up the nerve to ask him what, if anything, Mom said before she died.

North grew up into a nice looking dog. Looks a lot like her parents, huh?

Here is my dad holding Curtis. Where did that green skin come from? I've seen that person named MOSS, is he really their father? One would think that if you had this skin in your genes it would have shown up BEFORE now....doesn't matter, he is my brother and loves attention.

Braidy also decided to change her hair some. Mom would have NEVER gone for this, but since she isn't here..... Dad is a little unsure of everything right now. Losing mom really upset him.

Braidy regularly goes and helps out with Curtis and Karoline. Those two really adore her. She said to forget the skin issue, they are our siblings.

Here she is with Karoline. Karoline is such a quiet sister. I guess with 4 brothers and 1 sister in the house, she really looks up to Braidy.

Ranger Morelli called today. He told me a wild story of the new stranger. He said the guy is a MURDERER!!! I'm not too sure what to think of this. He didn't make mom sick, did he????

Dad just continues to fill out paperwork for mom's life insurance policy. He said they are giving him trouble over her policy. Something about a poison she ate at the Morelli house.

Ever wonder how to use this sim vac item? Here we have Braidy showing us how to steal some aspiration. This doesn't hurt them, does it???

Today our toddler siblings grew into children. I noticed this townie hung around for this event. I think he is upset at Braidy for using the vac on him.

You know she vac'ed him AGAIN!! Then he just dropped to the ground like a lunatic. Boy this man is messed up!!

Curtis the elf boy! He said if his brothers can wear chicken hats, he can wear elf ears.

Quiet little Karoline also grew up today.

Karoline likes to play the piano for HOURS! She loves the having the fire beside her while she plays.

FIRE!!!!! FIRE!!!!!! FIRE!!!!!!

CAROLINE!!!! OH NO!!! A PIANO FIRE!!!!
(As requested by JennTSG)

Our little quiet sister Karoline has passed away. Life is strange like that, you know. That strange visitor was here also. Hmm, I need to call Ranger Morelli now....

Ok, this dude has really lost it now! Look here he is with the ball he called Professor Von Ball!! What a nut....

Dad plays music in honor of our dear sister Karoline. All he will say is such is the circle of life. Everyone must die at some time....

Yep, the headmaster came by to visit us. He was more than happy to let us into his private school. Dad mentioned something about being a financial backer of the school does not hurt either.

Give me your skills I say. That is why you are here, right? HAHAHA!

Just a picture of two of my brothers studying up for school.

The older twins had their birthdays today. Neither one is willing to take off the hat either. DORKS!!!

Why is my father talking to this man? Maybe I should have warned him about this man.

If only, if only...it is too late now. Dad has passed away from old age...

Keenan was the first to get rid of his hat. He said he had to change his hair to this in dad's honor.

Somedays I really wonder about Keenan and Caleb. Caleb here thought the happy hat looked fun to wear....

Man, now he is gone too. So many sad times around here. One must wonder about our house.... I agree with Ranger...BLAME THE STRANGER, HE IS A MURDERER!!!

Not to be left out, Keenan went on his own vac'ing spree.

What is Braidy doing? She said he is MR BIG and she wants him in her life! Umm sis? He is an adult and you, well you aren't...

With a few people of out the house, I decided, YES I DID since I am now the MAN of the house, to add an elevator.

Braidy decided she must go to College now. I agreed to stay here with our siblings and run the family businesses. Have fun sis!!

Caleb came back to visit us today. So far he has stayed around his death site and only scares our guests. That can't be good in the long run, huh?

ODD PICTURE:

My fun :)

Round 9 - Skywalker

2006-12-29T11:28:00.000-05:00

Heidi ho friends! Here I am with my lovely wife Stormy. I am Atreyu, remember me? I am sure you do. It seems we have somehow become vampires. How you ask? Hmm, I won't say...

Have you heard about this strange person? Ranger told me he might have something to do with some murders around here. I tend to agree, let me show you why I think that way.

You see here he is visiting our house. He seems show up at the oddest times. He wanted to steal one of our prized gnomes, but luckily they are blocked in.

A little bit after he showed up, our dog Fred died. {Sigh} I don't know all the details, I was sleeping in my casket. I found a camera in the house and this was on the film.

Why couldn't I ask Claire? Well, the reaper was here twice this day. Once for Fred and the second time for Claire. I am sure she knows what happened, but she isn't talking now.

Look right there, there he is! The MURDERER!!! He even mourned some. PHHFT!! HE KILLED HER!!!

With two deaths in one day, Luke decided to come visit us. He wanted to see what all the excitement was about. He likes to visit us often. This house is haunted!! They leave us alone unless we go outside.

Meet Gwen, I think she is the reason Stormy and I are vampires. Which is ok as I am enjoying the life of the undead. I don't think she is a smart vampire.

And you see, Stormy is also a vampire. She enjoys this life as she said we can now live to see our Great Grandkids, who we won't acknowledge, being born.

Here I am again. I have to talk to my friends early at night. You know my friends still sleep at night while I sleep during the day. Weirdness!!

Lexi came over to visit one day and Gwen, being the nice vampire, BLAHHED her till she peed her pants. Gwen's excuse was she needed new gossip to tell. I wonder what the real reason may be...

Jango seems a little worried. He is getting close to adult hood and has a HUGE decision to make. To go to University or not??

Here is my good son, Argon. He is looking for a job. Notice Jango? He loves that music player thing he has. Pops it out at all times of the day. They are both good kids, too bad we only see them at night time.

BAD DOG DAKOTA!!! BAD DOG!!! Too bad I am in my casket right now, this dog destroyed a BED!!! I bet this will upset our ghosts now. Who trained this dog???

Ever wonder what us vampires do all night? We make money!! We don't tend to get busted either, which was a plus.

Here is out lair. All three of us vampires sleep down here. At least us SMART vampires do, the not so smart ones get out of their casket....

BAD DOG!! BAD BAD DOG!!! The worst part is I am in my casket sleeping and can not punish Dakota. No one can as the boys are at school. BAD DOG!!!

Argon is really helpful around the house. He said he could fix the trash compactor, no need for a repairman. Isn't that helpful? Trying to save us some money.

Oopsie, it seems this trash compactor is really broke! It zapped Argon! Why isn't Stormy worried, Gwen seems upset by this.

ARGON!!! Are you ok son? Baby boy?? Are you ok?? ARGON????

See there, no harm done, huh? All you need is a little shower and all will be better. Man, I was really worried about you for a minute there.....

ARGON!!! What are you doing now?? STORMY SAVE OUR BABY!! SAVE OUR BABY!! STORMY???? JANGO!!! SAVE YOUR BROTHER!!! Put the book down Jango, put it down!!!

Man, looks like the reaper is here again. You see who else is also here, right??? I bet he somehow did this. HE IS A MURDERER!!!!

I told you Gwen was a stupid vampire, right? She doesn't have enough sense to stay in her casket and looks what happens. She was to fly to her casket, but got stuck here....

Why is she outside?? Why get the mail? You are a stupid vampire...the sun will KILL you!!!

Yep, that is exactly what happened also. The reaper is back, yet again.

Do you see what I see?? There he is! The MURDERER was at my house yet again!! Who is this person and why is he MURDERING people??

OUT OF ORDER PICTURE!!! (Or is it???)
Here is a night at the house. Making money while I fly my kite. I enjoy flying the kite in the backyard. Is this a good or bad kite??

Aren't I a grand vampire in my casket? I tend to think so. You can also see our reaper phone there. Did we use it? Was the above picture a clue? Hmm, my lips are sealed!!!

Shhhhhuuuusssshhhhh!!! We are mourning here!!

Jango made up his mind and decided not to go to College. He said if he goes, there is no guarantee he will get the family home. This way he gets to stay here.

FIRE!!! FIRE!!! We never got busted making money, but we sure had our share of fires. We didn't call the fire department as they may tip off the police.

Kalan and Sweets out for a walk. I wonder if he is looking for more Morelli women to romance.

Jango really wanted to finish off his skills so he went outside to study the skies. I wonder what this means, was he abducted??? Only time will tell....

Just some pictures we painted. I am curious to see if they stay like this in another person's game. Or since they are custom paintings will they be blank? Did you know a vampire can paint in the sunlight with no needs drop? They don't drop until we acknowledge the sunshine...interesting vampire fact.

More CCC around here. At least the people with the CCC look nice with no hair. I hope this CCC doesn't kill them also....

Jango went off on a date with this woman. He said he wants to beat his brother's to the punch. He said Anakin has a son, but no one else!!

You know what they are doing here....

Looks like we have a wedding to plan. Jango introduced us to his lovely wife to be, Kirstee. I hope this means we will hear the pitter-patter of little feet soon. Kirstee is a family sim and wants a large family.

They even had the wedding at night. This way we could see them tie the knot. A nice crowd was here for the wedding.

Deaths, weddings...is there anything these ghosts won't come out for???

Just our guests enjoying the party. See Tosha Go on the couch? She is really upset. She thought she was going to College with Jango and now that is out of the question. That must be why she is stuffing her face here.

We started this book with a picture of Stormy and I, so we will end it with a picture of Jango and Kirstee.

Round 9 - Morelli

2006-12-29T02:39:00.000-05:00

Welcome back to the Morelli house! Yepper, this is Ranger again. I am still alive. I know you thought I died, but guess what, NOPE!! Before we go into all that has happened, let me show you some other interesting items that really are just strange.

What are those white lines you ask?? Oh, it seems dear sweet Rachel uses custom paint that Lynn does not have. This is the result.

What is that hole in the ground?? That is the Landon Bach house. Really cool looking house, too bad it was all custom paint again...GRRR!!!

Who is this man? Well, he is a stranger in town. He seems a little mad about something also. I hope he doesn't cause any trouble.....

Let's take the family out to see the shops and what do we see?? Andrea Hogan and Stormy Skywalker fighting. I wonder why??? Does it have to do with someone running the game while they slept???

Andrea is really a mean local too. Look here she is going after the town idiot, Goopy! I would have helped, but being I am a zombie, it would take way too much of my energy and time to get over there.

Here we have out nice neighborhood tramp, Lexi Jonas. Have you heard about her? Man, she really gets around...if you want her number, let me know. Where is her hair? Ah yes, we have some strange sort of cancer here.

See, here is another example of the cancer with Moonchild Bach. She owns the house Lexi, ummmm, resides at. We don't ask too many questions here.

Hmm, here we have my x-spouse Tiny Morelli. I barely had one foot in the grave and she is moving some other guy in here. The NERVE!! Do you know the twins were NOT my kids??? Nope, they aren't even Kalan's.

Here is my beautiful daughter, Maribella. She is the only other 'True Morelli' living in this house.

The twins grew up this week. Aren't they cute? I wish they were mine, but nothing I can do about that. I love them like they are mine.

I REALLY FEEL THE NEED TO KILL THIS MAN!!!! You understand, right? I am barely dead and he is moving in on my family.

Plus he brought this person into our house. Let me explain, there are rumors going around that he helped set up Elizabeth's death. I just get a creapy vibe from him. Real creapy.

It started at supper. All of a sudden, my stomach started hurting. Like I was starving to death. And he just sat there with that strange little smirk.

Then I found myself in the bathroom. I know it was somethng he did...I know it. Being a zombie, maybe the poison went through my system. Yes, I do believe that he tried to poison me!!

Next thing you know, the kids are crying as Tiny "With many baby daddies" Morelli was hit by a satellite. What do I see? He flipped open a notepad and marked off a name. I could swear it was an email titled HIT LIST with many different colors and notes on it.

I forgot about that until now, we were all upset about Tiny's death. You know she was pregnant at the time, right? Now we will never know who the daddy was of that kid.

Poor Kalan was really eaten up. He pleaded to the reaper, but it was not good enough. Must suck to be him, but she was my enemy too.

Poor Tiny, I was worried he might use the phone and bring her back. Alas, he did not. He called Lynn over and proceeded back into bachelor life like he was never married.

He didn't waste anytime either. Isn't Lynn engaged??? At least I thought she was engaged to Matthew Bach.

This cop came by to ask us questions concerning Tiny's death also. Wondering if it is connected to Cloudy's or Stephanie's. She said we may have a serial killer in town.

Here are the girls one day. They were sort of upset as Kalan said we need to cleanse the house of Tiny's memories and sent the cats away.

Maribella tried to stop him, but he programed our security system to stop anyone who went near him.

Who is this lady and why is she a ghost in my house? Mardee said she has a vague idea about who she is. Whoever she is, she isn't happy. She haunts almost every evening.

Kalan really wanted to get rid of Tiny's memory. He changed the bedroom they used. He said is feels more like a bachelor's room now. I did warn him about how this may upset the ghosts but he didn't care.

Look who he brought over next, Catalin Bach. She is married to Lando and they are having problems. Well, this won't help at all.

At least he did one thing right. He taught the twins how to study while I, um, supervised. Yep, that is what I am doing right there. Supervising.

I just wish he had gotten dressed to do it. The girls aren't stupid. They know their dad had died. Yep, he is dead. Trust me, I have see the family tree. Now their mom has died. All three girls are in a house related to only Maribella.

Do you know Kalan spent more of MY money and had a mini arcade added to the house???? What does he think we need one of those for? These kids need to study! Not play games!!

Yes, you see the picture correctly, I am dying...AGAIN. It seems I forgot to eat before I went to work, yada yada yada, I am starving to death.

Thought I died, huh? Nope! Maribella came out and beat the Reaper man. Ha-ha Kalan, my KID can beat the reaper, why can't you??

There is a new girl in my life and Maribella isn't too proud of it. She gets really upset when we kiss or anything. She said I am getting too old for that. TOO OLD?? I don't age anymore. I am SUPER ZOMBIE!!!

i even tried to marry Jordan, but those PREGNANT PETS, that Kalan sent away are preventing it.

So I brought them back and updated their looks. Here we have Roux.

And here is Sweets. You know what is strange, I don't think they are pregnant.

Being that I am one of the only CAS adults left here, I decided I needed a makeover to forget about the PREGNANT PETS, that aren't pregnant.

Maribella did an awesome job getting herself and her sisters into private school. She smoozed the head master all the way. Then passes out in her food. At least he did not look down on us about that tidbit.

Kalan is still in his little mood. He just doesn't seem really happy. I really don't care, but thought you might be interested....

Next thing I knew, he said he wanted to give makeovers. Here are some pictures of random townies and the makeovers Kalan gave him. I don't remember their names, sorry. You might regonize their clothing.

I almost forgot about our little genius. Here we have Mardee. She grew into a nice looking knowledge sim. She is a typical knowledge sim who seems to be a fast learner also. She will go far in life, I believe. Why did I die before she arrived? She was to have been mine also!!

Maribella came to me with a strange question. Why does she have to go to college? Why can't she stay here as a 'TRUE MORELLI' and raise her sisters. That way they can have a GOOD influence in their lives.

I was ok with the idea until THIS happened! She jumped right into Kalan's arms! WHAT DOES SHE THINK SHE IS DOING??? Her sisters noticed and started whispering about it right away. This is NOT what a good influence does.

She is more like her mother than she would like to believe. I wonder why she is messing with Kalan? Why Kalan? Why HIM??? There are others out there she might like more. She will have to learn the hard way.

It seems Maribella isn't so smart after all. I watched her buy this strange object this afternoon. Then she puts her head inside. I know she wasn't a very good pleasure sim, but isn't this extreme?? She is now my little GRILLED CHEESE BABY!! Baby, did I say baby? Hmm, have to wait and see....

Just more evidence about that cancer in the hood!!! It has been determined that the name of this cancer is CCC (Custom Content Cancer). Some people have it while others (like Maribella) just reverted to Maxis hair. Who determined who got cancer and who didn't. Even worse is these people show the hair so I get confused on who to call as I am used to seeing them BALD.

How dare he sit in MY hot tub looking all SMUG!!! First he steals my wife right in my kitchen when I was barely dead and now he has to go after my DAUGHTER!! At least the PREGNANT PETS, who aren't pregnant, should prevent him from planting any of his seeds...

At least my little non-children girls love me. They tell me all sorts of stories of aliens, vampires and maybe werewolves living here.

MORE MAKEOVERS:

It seems the stress of living here really took it's toll on Kalan. I didn't think he was supposed to have a birthday, but he did. Maybe his poison took longer to effect him. I still think that person did something to me!

One last fight before we say goodbye.I hope to see you again....I don't know if I will or not. Being a zombie, I may. Be sure to tell the others about the 'SERIAL KILLER!' He tried to poison me!!!

Odd Picture

My fun :)

Round 8: University

2006-12-25T02:01:00.000-05:00

Welcome Back, welcome back, Factoid Sally here. I heard some of you liked hearing from me, so I thought I'd bring you the facts of what happened during university. Let's start with the greek house, Delta Dawn.

A bunch of the new freshmen came by to try to get into the greek house.

Stephanie Morreli was the first in. It helped that her brother Ian and Uncle Mario were 2/3 of the house occupants at the time.

Next was Joe Morreli. Yep, all the Morreli's were in.

Joe had what can only be described as an interesting upbringing. It didn't offer much time to even think about dating. He did recently visit his now late father, Cloudy's house where he met Orchid. He was a smitten kitten.

Luckily for him something finally went right and she was into him too.

Joe closed his eyes and puckered up.

And he found himself getting his very first kiss.

Stephanie welcomed her fiance Jack Jonas to Delta Dawn.

He in turn welcomed Kate Bach.

Finally Amadalla Tellerman joined along with...

Locke Bach.

Current household members.

Despite being in his senior year Mario had yet to find anyone to love. Since he related to half the ladies in the class and the others were involved he started stopping everyone that walked by. Apparently though, he doesn't like red heads.

Tressie graduated and moved out. She awaited her fiance Ian.

Amy Jones then joined the house in her place.

Mario, unbatted called the local gypsy. with all the money these kids were inheriting, there was plenty to find someone for Mario to love.

She dropped Diana and Mario was impressed (3 bolter, incase you can't tell)

Moments later Mario ogt his first kiss. With chemistry like this they should be married within the week.

Amadalla, not wating to get too ahead of her housemates, carried on the tradition of painting all greek house members.

Ian graduated and joined Tressie. Alvin moved in, but we don't have any pictures of him.

Mario graduated as well.

But he wanted to spend more time with Diana, so he helped out his housemated by doing their homework. Amy and Alvin were very far behind everyone else so they needed it.

Everything in this house wasn't studying and skilling. The cow and llama mascots had a wicked fight, the llama won.

Jack maxed his final skill while waiting for his final.

Here are all the new paintings, Ian, Mario, and Tressie were already painted.

Now we say good-bye to Delta Dawn and visit...

The Marry Me Townie household. The last two houses in the hood combined to form this one house.

Things were pretty boring here too. Meadow and Oood Bnar would tkae breaks from studying to Smootsy.

Our dear Shannon is also looking for love. She is realed to Mario in case anyone was wondering why those two didn't get together.

The gyspy didn't do such a hot job for Shannon. She dropped this guy, who was such a loser I don't even know his name. Shannon continues looking for love.

Matthew didn't have a hard time in that department. He invited his long time friend Lynn over.

It wasn't long before he was getting his first kiss.

He was so enammered he...

...dropped to one knee.

A wedding is planned upon Matthew's graduation.

Matthew wasn't the only one in love. OodBnar sure is with the former paper girl Amy Jones.

Ood Bnar loved his fiancee so much he could no longer resist her charms and gave himself to her for the first time.

If you'll remember, he was not her first. Is the former paper girl looking ot make headlines of her own?

Speaking of carnal knowledge, the betrothed couple Meadow and Beju decided not to wait either.

Miss Meadow got herself a new look. For anyone watching "Hereos" the cheerleader has always bothered me because I couldn't think of who she reminded me of, now I know. Save the Cheerleader, Save the World!

Now we say good-bye to these five. All except Matthew have been accepted into the greek house. Matthew has been denied twice.

A little neighborhood info before we go.

Mario Morreli bought this lovely house upon graduation.

He wanted a home for Diana.

She moved in immediately.

After a quick trip to the salon for Diana, Mario droped to one knee and declaired he wanted her to be his wife.

She accepted with glee.

Then the two fell in love.

Ian and Tressie have also movedin to the house. We hope this won't cramp anyone's style.

Simmers Note: This is the end of my round, the next person you'll hear from is Lynn.

Round 8: The Jonas Family

2006-12-19T23:02:00.000-05:00

Newspaper Headline:
Attempted Murder Suspected at the Jonas House this Week
By Factoid Sally

Things started off rather strange at the Jonas house this week. The school bus and car pool had arrived but both drivers were standing outside the vechicles. They both drove off and the drivers walked off the lot. Luckily a new bus and carpool arrived moments later.

The cheating ways at this house haven't tapered off yet.

Parker has hooked back up with his high school sweetheart Amy Jones, former papergirl.

Lexi could be seen romancing...

...several townies.

While her poor daughter cry out of exhaustion in the bathroom.

It seems that WooHoo took a lot out of ol' Parker.

Lexi has a secret want to WooHoo with 20 different people.

If you'll remember she's already done it with her deceased husband, Myrin Jonas and Myrin's brother Parker, which produced little Ivey. By the look on Lexi's face, we can guess she's made Abhijeet (we'll call him Abe for short) her third.

IN the meantime, or between WooHoos, Devon had a birthday.
He's a strapping young lad with aspirations of Popularity. It appears the news reported in Prosperity Falls about it being odd that Pop. people want to own 5 top level businesses is in fact false. Devon has not yet worked towards this goal.

Speaking of odd things, Parker wants to get a facelift, that's a new one on me.

Meanwhile Lexi seduces and...

...beds Parker's son Jack Jonas.

She later found out she was pregnant.

And what did she do next? She seduces Claire Morreli Skywalker much to the dismay of Mirrabella Morreli, although I'm not sure why she is SO upset.
*Side note: There are SO many affairs going on is this hood, I can't keep track. Oh wait I remember this one now, I'm not telling though.*

She later beds Claire as well. Lucky for Claire, she had a want to WooHoo, the whole week at her house.

Lexi took a break from bedding the locals to help her little one go from Panda PJs to...

...um are those supposed to be bananas? Ivey looks so much like both her parents she really is going to be gorgeous.

Shortly after that Lexi was back to her old tricks and bedded a college friend, Sherri.

And back to bedding the elderly she went.

This time is was "happily" married Bastain Bach. I guess 10 kids can do that to a man, or he's a bastard, it's up to you really.

That night Lexi suddenly realized her Myrin was dead and how much she wanted him to come back.

She still bedded Goopy though, yes folks, Goopy. You know you knew whose shorts those were in the picture above.

And Parker helped his daughter with her homework. Then everything went black and there was something about a really bad Windows error. Yeah whatever that means, and these things all had to be redone, 3 days worth.

Stella brought home Stella Skywalker from school. These two really seem to get along.

Ivey brought home neighborhood social butterfly, Keenan Bach. I wonder if we're seeing 2 sets of future mates. Well that's not my call, I need to stick to the facts, I am Factoid Sally.

Lexi was in the middle of a date with her next victim, well willing subject as the case may be, Xuan, when she went into labor.

She had baby boy Fern.

It wasn't until later that she admitted who his daddy was.

Well most people would be upset if the woman they were on a date with had another man's baby, but not Xuan. I bet he was just happy it wasn't his.

Caleb Bach happened by that day and was very upset to see his Father's (Bastain) mistress on a date with another man. I did say this place was odd.

Well Lexi wasn't too happy that Fern dirty his diaper as she was trying to get it on with #9.

After changing the diaper, Lexi put another notch in her bedpost.

The following day Ivey brought home her first A+ report card.

She was very dismayed to find her mother on a date with another man. How could she cheat on her father like this?

That little bump in the road only slowed her down. She got #10.

While all of this was going on Moonchild celebrated a birthday quietly in her room.

And she helped Fern become a toddler.

And helped with the potty training.

The following morning #10, I mean Quavi picked up a shovel and filled in a hole left by a wolf.

Speaking of stepping up, Lexi helped Little Ivey with her cooking.

And little Fern with using the potty.

At this point she seemed to have realized that she was neglecting her family. She invited over good old #3, I mean Abe.

She knew it was time to do the right thing and proposed to Fern's father.

This was the beginning of the bad things for poor Abe.

They had a quite ceremony in the house so no passer-bys would ruin it.

The look of "What have I done," says it all.

Abe took to practicing his speeches in the mirror.

When he could speak no more he went to this crazy electric pail thing and got in. He almost electrocuted himself to death, but survived.

The next day he spent sometime practicing on the piano. Moonchild said it was getting cold so she lit a fire.

Meanwhile Lexi discovered she was expecting. But rumor has it the baby isn't Abe's. I hear she had a romp with one of the other's she had bedded previously, just prior to the wedding. Who? I'm afraid I can't say, I have to stick to the truth (no cheating anyone, Cait, you have to wait to find out like everyone else)

Well apparently Moonchild got hungry and started grilling inside. Old age, I guess.

Next thing they know the whole place was a blaze. Everyone was OK.

Later another fire broke out when Moonchild grilled Hotdogs. She claims she thought they would be less flammable. Abe caught on fire this time. He was a goner for sure.

Until 2 firemen showed up and put him out. The piano and grill were lost in this fire. Abe was alright.

Shortly after that the cowplant was mysteriously found by the house. It had been moved from it's safe spot by the pond. Abe still smelled so bad, even the cowplant wouldn't eat him. Heartburn. So who was trying to off Abe? The police believe it was Moonchild. It turns out her and Abe were also in love. Him marrying Lexi was too much for Moonchild to take and she started to try to rid the house of him. Unfortunately there is no actual proof. She claims the grill said it was approved for indoor use and that she has no idea how the cowplant got moved.

Ivey tried to bring back who she believed was her dad, Myrin. Poor girl, how do you tell her, her Uncle Parker is her father? Well I guess if she reads this I just did. The phone wouldn't work though. It kept beeping, "No Actions Available".

She did get a glimspe of him though by shouting "BoolProp" into the night air.

That's it for houses, now I just have university left. Hopefully that will go quick. I was going to bring Myrin back, but the grim phone would not work at all. I used boolprop to get another with the same problem. I tried to add Myrin to the family but the game just said he was dead, well duh.

Tellerman Round 8

2006-12-14T19:58:00.000-05:00

Anakin and Shada are in a nearly empty bedroom. The only things left in the room is a bed stripped of it's covers, a few cardboard boxes , and a night stand. Anakin opens the night stand drawer and lets out a small gasp.
Shada: What is it dear?
Anakin: It's Elizabeth's diary. I don't know what to do with it. Part of me wants to read it, but it seems wrong.
Shada: Considering the situation, I think it would be all right.
Anakin: Well, all right.
Anakin cracks open the book.
Anakin: Wow this is her newest one too. It says December 2006.
Elizabeth: It's hard to believe it's December already. Shada and I both went straight to the salon and make overs today.

My Cloudy sure has taken to Shada and Anakin's boy, Cade. I wonder if he has thought about having any kids with me? I know he had Joe when he was in college but he never got to do any of the actual raising.

Shada got a new job in law enforcement today. She said she's decided she wants to be Capt. Hero. I'm still working in the art field. I only work 2 days a week now.
I spend most days at home watching Cade, but I really want to own 5 businesses.

So I bought Pepe's Pets shop.

Rachel came by. She was the first customer in the door,

...but not the first to buy something.

Rachel must win a lot of money at Bastain's poker hall,

'cause she sure buys a lot.

Caitalin (Day) Skywalker is another good customer. She comes by often but usually she's just browsing.

The shop was getting busy so I called my Cloudy to come help out.

He wasn't always the best with the customers. He's made a few enemy's here. That's what happens when someone sleeps through an open venue, you know.

He did really energize me when I would get tired. Those dream dates did wonders.

It shocked Lando Skywalker though. A little vechicular woohoo during the work day never hurt anyone.

Oh Lynn came by today. I've heard she loves to shop!

In the downtime I keep the shop spick and span.

It must have impressed the customers because we reached Rank 10!!!!

Cloudy and I were on a date at the time and apparently that upset Tiny Bach.

I did have to have a talk with Cloudy about not slapping the customers. We don't want to lose any stars.

He was quite upset.

Lando and Caitalin celebrated my success by dancing in the middle of the store.

*Back Home*
Today was an exciting day. My friend Xuan came over and hung out while everyone else was at work.

Anakin reached his life long dream of being Chief of staff.
And Cade celebrated a birthday!

What a heartbreaker he's going to be.

Christmas is here already. Anakin baked Santa some cookies.
And we set up the tree. Cade got a Charisma Bunny which he loved.

No sooner did Anakin get the cookies on the table...

..than we heard the jiggling of sleigh bells. Santa was here!

He brought Cade a remote control car. Cade wasn't too thrilled, but I'm sure he'll like it when he gets older.

Everyone had a good time hanging out with the Big Man himself before he had to move on.

Cloudy got some new light up reindeer this year.

He seems oddly drawn to them. Merry Christmas!!!

I've been thinking about getting a pet. I was thinking about a dog until I saw thing dog chase the mailman all around the yard.

Today was a great day finacially in the house. Anakin and Shada both brought in great Christmas bonuses.

Cloudy, my handsome moron kisses the reindeer.

Well spit and electricity don't mix.

And he got shocked badly!

I told him I was worried about this behavior and promised he would stop.

To pass the time instead he invited his son, Joe over. They are great friends now which is wonderful.

Tonight was huge scaring night. Orchid stopped by and got scared by Komei and...

...and Sara within 2 minutes of each other.

Poor Cloudy was so tuckered from the electrocution and the scaring he fell asleep in his food.

But the ghosts weren't satisfied.

Joe and Orchid hit it off and spent the rest of the night in the hot tub together. I wonder if there is a love connection there?

I also found out I was pregnant tonight.

I felt Cloudy get out of bed in the middle of the night.

Well I finally got a pet. I went with a cat, Bonkers.

He's so cute! And little.

I just want to play with him all the time.

My Cloudy got a promotion today thanks to a good descion.

And he promptly kissed the darn reindeer again!

Cade gets along really well with Bonkers, but...

Anakin decided a boy should have a dog. So he adopted Maxx. He was so excited he took Maxx to work with him.

By the end of Anakin's shift Maxx was in rough shape. He had forgotten to take any pet food with him.

And we had forgetten to fill the one at home. So Bonkers was hungrey too.

They both got plenty to eat and were fine.
Shada also got promoted today. Everyone is doing so well in their careers.

Some how we missed Cade's birthday. He's a cute boy, but he has interesting taste in PJs.

My Cloudy can't seem to kick the reindeer kissing habit.

All the worry about Cloudy put me into labor early.

I was very surprised to find out I was having (natural, I swear) twin boys!

Tornado

and Hurricane.

Cloudy was so ecited about the twins he went out and kissed that deer again!

I was inside feeding the twins when I heard Shada sobbing from outside.

I got there just in tiem to see the grim reaper take my der Cloudy.

How could Cloudy leave me like this? We just had two babies and now he leaves me!!!

I was so overwhelmed, I didn't know what to do. I had the boys and Anakin, Shada, and Cade were great, but I still felt all alone in the world.

I thought another cat might help, so I adopted Heidi, but it didn't.

I saw Cade with his dad and my heart attached that my boys would never have that.

Would I have time to help them both with their school work?

Would I be able to be the great mom Shada is? I went to bed for days.

I missed the twins' birthday.

Hurricane is the spitting image of Cloudy. It hurts to look at him and it hurts not to.

Thank goodness Anakin helped out so much with them.

My little Bonkers grew up too.

I finally realized I need to start living again for my boys.

And I helped them learn their remaining skills.

Which freed Anakin up to Shada work towards her next promotion.

I had a weak moment tonight. I went out to Cloudy's grave and broke down.

Apparently that woke the ghost again because Cloudy scared me.

The real weak moment was I asked my friend Xuan over and we became more than friends.

I haven't felt so alive in such a long time. I swear I heard music.

Anakin: That's all. That night was so bad for ghosts.

Elizabeth got up to make breakfast for everyone a little early and Sara got her.

I heard her terrible scream and ran to the kitchen where I found her.

I plead with the grim reaper not to take her. She was all those boys had left.

But I lost at his cruel game.

And he took her anyway. Everyone was terribly upset even the cats.
Shada: You did all you could. Wait go back to that last part in the diary.
Anakin: I don't think we should reread about her final woohoo.
Shada: No just the last sentence.
Aanakin: She thought she heard music.
Shada: Oh my God, she was pregnant!

Simmers Notes: That's it. I had planned to get rid of Cloudy this round because I wanted to do my part to keep the numbers down in the hood. Well I guess Karma really is a, well you know what they call Karma. I had really fallen in love with Elizabeth this round after spending so much time with her at Pepe's Pets. I had planned to get her pregnant with Xuan's kid and leave that for a surprised. I haven't been so upset about a sim death in a very long time.

Funny Pictures:

Maxx peed on Tornado.

I was hitting the button like crazy to get a couple shots of Elizabeth and Xuan's WooHoo and this is the first one I got. Hehe.

Round 8: The Bachs (Falkor)

2006-12-07T20:46:00.000-05:00

Mara: Hello everybody! Thanks for coming to get caught up on our week here in Viosinage-Partage. I'm Mara you mind remember me from 4 weeks ago when I was Mara Tellerman. I live in this house with my husband Falkor Bach, our daughter Fawn and my husband's friend from college, Leia Skywalker. Yes, she's still here, but we can talk more about that in a bit.

Leia's, umm, friend, Quavi comes by from time to time. He adores Fawn, which is sort of weird if you ask me.

I met Tiffany. She's a wonderful dog that the little girl, Salla Skywalker likes.

Falkor arrived home with some exciting news. He's reached the top of his career!

Brittany Bach came to visit that same day with her pup, West in toe. I swear West must want to meet 'bout everybody.

Well this is why Leia is still here. She found she was expecting and Falkor didn't want her to be on her own raising a baby.

That night she invited over her "love" Quavi and he rejected her for a kiss. Turns out he caught her cheating, with who? I don't know.

Not too much later he had forgiven her.

Yeah, I guess he really forgave her.

All right so as if I wasn't upset with Leia before. The next morning the social worker shows up to drop off a kid for Leia.

Not that I have anything against Germesha, it isn't her fault her new mom is taking advantage of her friend.

Leia tried to be all lovey dovey with her right away, but she won't have it.

She didn't want to be horrible so she showed her new mom what she could already do.

In the orphanage Germesha was never allowed to do anything fun with her hair so I took her straight out for a new look. She's cute huh?

Well, that afternoon Leia invited Quavi over again! Her daughter just arrived and she's already ignoring her! The really strange part is the maid, Lucy, was horrifed at what she saw, like a relative was hooked up Leia or Quavi.

Well, back to my family, Falkor realized that the sports lime light wasn't for him and he went into business.

At leastLeia did find time to play golf with her daughter.

Falkor apparently has had some problems with his mom. It's funny how many relationships can go arrey when someone goes to sleep with an open venue.

The next day was Germesha's first day at school. She was expecting to do well, but was disappointed to come home with just a C+.

That night was also my little girl's birthday.

What a beauty she has grown to be.

Falkor set right into playing golf with her. He's such a great father!

Not to be out of the spot light for long, Leia went into labor that night.

With not one, but TWO babies!!!

Lealand and Lily and adorable, I must admit, but I know this just means more work for us.

In case there was any doubt, I know I had some, the twins are Quavi's.

Leia stepped up some and helped Germesha with her homework.

Fawn met Tiffany and had a good time playing with her. Fawn is such a quiet girl and keeps to herself most of the time.

I even gave Tiffany a bath before it was time to tend to the babies.

Leia wouldn't even hire a nanny. She said to me, "Darling you'll take care of the babes while I'm at work. You're so great at it! Okay!" Yeah, I like them, but this is too much. I hired one for when I'm gone.

Poor Fawn came home with a C+ her first day from school too.

I'm so proud of my Falkor, he reached the top of another career!

Remember that nanny I hired? Well I guess Jan Tellerman had some kind of beef with her.

I'm surprised she came back the next day.

Falkor once again proved to be a great father. Fawn was so upset about her C+ her helped her with her homework right away.

Then he fixed the trash compacter.

And changed babies' dirty diapers even if they weren't his babies.

Fawn is a curious girl. She said she wanted to know where our green skin came from. I told her to look to the stars, so she did.

I was getting anxious that to get my $100,000 so I opened a venue. Just a pool table and bowling alley. Nothing big.

Germesha seems to be doing well despite who her mother is. She brought home her first A+ and who did she run to? Not her mother, but my Falkor.

She's even made friends with Keenan Bach. He seems like a real outgoing boy.

Leia was off doing something so I grabbed Lily to help her with her birthday. It was only when she heard the horns that Leia came running in.

I even had to take her to the potty for the first time.

And I got her a sweet new hair do.

Falkor had to help Lealand with his birthday.

And with his first trip to the potty.

It's funny we have these fun things to do at the house and all the customers want to do is use our treadmill.

We had a wolf stop by the lot.

And this cat, Kim.

The strange thing is the two of them played together. Weird.

Anyway, Fawn is quite taken with Kim. Perhaps we'll adopt her one day.

I about died of shock when I saw Leia teaching Lealand to talk. He had this look on his face of, "Who are you lady?"

He seemed more excited to see Tiny Bach. I think it was the red hair, reminded him of me.

And where was his mother? Making out with Quavi, AGAIN!!!

Then at the least the two of them went in and played with Lily. All the fun, none of the work for these two.

Meanwhile I was building a servo.

Selling it, put me over the $100,000 mark. Yippee!!!

Well speaking of Yippee, well Leia wasn't with her babies.

Or her babies' daddy for that matter!

Well I was still upset from the whole whore thing when I heard Brittany Bach screaming!

The wolf, Boots, was terrorizing her. I cleared him off and calmed Brittany down.

I even helped Germesha with some cooking skills.

And Brittany enjoyed some cheesecake.

Well that's everything that happened this week. See you all next time.

Funny pictures:

I had to leave the lot and go back after Leia had the twins and here she is holding them both as infants. Never seen this before.

And gotta love the toddler in the tummy shot.

Round 8: Skywalkers (Lando)

2006-12-02T17:47:00.000-05:00

Round 8: Skywalkers (Lando)

The last time we saw Lando, Caitalin, and Salla they were moving out of the Morelli household. Lando and Caitalin had a falling out after Caitalin was caught kissing Ranger Morelli. I wonder if these two can once again build a happy family?

Salla: Hey there everybody! Thanks for coming to see us.

We moved out of the Morelli house and moved into this lovely house. It's small, but we are a small family so it fits our needs.

My dad is pretty freaked out . The neighborhood has some unwelcome new residents, wolves!

Dad has been acting pretty weird too. I don't know if it's because Mom kissed Ranger or what but he seems to have a secret of his own.

At any rate Mom and Dad do seem to be getting along better now.

Mom and I both inherited money when Ranger died. Don't tell Dad though he probably wouldn't be too happy about that.

Mom has been feeling sick the last few days. She said to get ready for a new brother or sister soon.

Yep, Mom and Dad said they needed some alone time so I went and painted.

This is one of Mom's friends, I don't remember her name. I thought I'd tell her all about how we moved out of Ranger's house.

Mom was real happy when this wolf came around. Dad hid inside. Now all Mom wants is to be a werewolf! Eeek!

Mom invited her friend Moss over. He's handsome, I think.

And he's fun to have around.

No doubt about it, I'm going to be a big sister soon.

In the meantime, this is Tiffany. She's a stray that I like very much. She isn't mine, but I still thought she should know some tricks.

I wasn't too happy to see my grades after my first day at school.

But Dad helped me with my homework, so I'm sure they will start to improve soon.

Mom's friend Moss sure is over a lot.

He's funny he likes to talk to the baby.

Mom also met the leader of the wolf pack. Man I thought she was obsessed before.

Before I knew it, I heard mom screaming out.

Dad said the baby was on the way and I should wait outside.

Yes sirree I'm a big sister. This is my little brother Rom.

And boy weren't we surprised, she had twins. She didn't even eat any cheesecake, not that I saw at least.

This is my little sister Sariss.

Dad is always so helpful with them.

Keenan Bach came walking by with his dog West.

His twin Caleb had come home with me on the buss, but he was a real bore.

Keenan was fun and we have become fast friends.

Tiffany came by again. I really want her to be mine, but Mom says our relationship isn't strong enough yet, so I have to wait.

Mom finds time to play with me. She said things are going to get crazy around here once the babies become toddlers and that they'll need me to help out too.

we had an eventful day. Mom got promoted.

And I got my first A+!!!

And it was the twins birthdays. Dad invited over some friends over and wouldn't ya know this pillowfight broke out. Weird, it wasn't even a wedding.

Mom baked two cakes, although I don't know why. They're babies, they wouldn't mind sharing.

Sariss is a cutie, just forgive her the pink tux.

Rom is a cutie too.

Sure enough Mom and Dad were busy from that point forward teaching the the twins to talk.

*Simmers note: Something has always bothered me about Caitalin and I finally figured out what it was. She didn't have any eyebrows! Or if she did, they were custom and I didn't have them. Well she has some now. Back to the story.*

Dad had to fix the stuff that broke around here too. He's real mechanical and we figured we might as well save the money.

No doubt Sariss is a Skywalker. She looks like Dad, only cute and a girl.

Well then it was time to potty train.

Mom and Dad were busy but I missed the attention.

Mom's friend Moss was the only one that seemed to notice me anymore.

In fact he was the only one awake for my birthday.

Well Mom was right, they did need my help with the twins. We set out some dog food for Tiffany when she comes by, but the twins always want to play in it.

Dad's friend Rachel came by. She seems like a nice lady although she came in and ate two pieces of birthday quick without barely saying hi.
*Simmer's note: I guess sims really does simulate life sometimes. I love cake!*

Well it seems things have turned around for our family. Mom and Dad are in love and the twins are wonderful. I hope everything is as wonderful as it all seems.

Round 8: The Bachs (Bastain)

2006-11-28T18:55:00.000-05:00

Round 8: The Bachs (Bastain)
Overflow
*Note: I downloaded the Snagit trial part way through and I'm not used to having to worry about the controls in the pictures, so sorry, but oh well*

Sim Rachel: Hi everyone and welcome to Bach household. I just ventured over here from Prosperity Point to visit my favorite poker hall. I think I shook that pest that keeps calling me a sim so I'll clue you in on all the fun around here.

Matthew and Barrymore were really upset that their dad was kissing their mom, although I really don't know why. Humm, interesting.

Oh yeah, there I am on the treadmill. I have to do that a lot. I still fall down too.
*Simmer's note: I actually did that once and I don't recommend it especially if you like skin on your knees.*

Ranger's death really benefited this family, not that they needed more money.

Bastain decided to get a dog to get back in his family's good graces.

This is West. He's a West Highland Terrier or a Westie.

Bastian didn't want West to be alone, so he got a girl too.

Meet East.

East meet West.

Here's Brittany back at the house. I told her not to eat the cheesecake, but she didn't listen.

I think Bastain was being a little too critical of Barrymore. He is just a kid.

So then Bastain became an old man.

Interesting clothing choice.

East and West started to warm up to each other.

Bastain is a good father now that he has his 5 top level businesses he has time to help his kids with their homework.

Tuckered out pups.

That studying paid off. I swear Bastain cheered a few minutes later.

The dogs loved the wiggle thingy. They never needed a bath, they'd just go out and get clean themselves.

Here's Brittany in labor, something she knows a lot about.

Meet Caleb and...

Keenan

The dogs really didn't care about the new babies as long as they could play in the wiggle thingy.

Bastain took to taking care of the teaching the dogs tricks.

While Brittany took care of the babies.

Turns out she wants some more too. Two to be exact.

Caitalin (Day) Skywalker came by to help out too.

More helping with the homework.

I think this is Kennedy Cox, not sure. He spent 24 hours with is face in the plate of Chicken Fettichini Alfredo.

Matthew new the house was getting full so he called for his college scholarships.

And went off right away.

Time passed by quickly and it was soon time for the twins to be toddlers.

Keenan is the second kid to get the Morreli nose.

Bastain sure does dote on those dogs.

But he dotes on the kids too. That's the nice thing about being self employed.

Braidy keeps working on her skills.

And Brittany was not surprised to find out she was expecting again.

With being pregnant so much Brittany didn't have to go to work at all this week.

So both parents helped the boys with their skills.

Barrymore got his report card...

...and he nailed it! First A+ for him!

Can anybody see Brittany's brain through her nostrils?

Both boys must like money like their pop.

Braidy and Barrymore like to watch the Yummy Channel together.

East and West really started to like each other.

A whole lot I guess.

Caitalin, it's rude to watch. Don't you know that?

All the years playing in the lawn sprinkler, I never got air like that.

Awww... these two still can't get enough of each other.

Looks like Brittany is baking. I wonder what she could be making?

What else? Really?

Caleb loves to hug the pups.

Oh there's a good up the nose shot. I mean, before too long it was time for some more babies.

Welcome Curtis &

Wait, that's Curtis again. What is happening?

Bastain is so happy to be a father again, he and Braidy are dancing with joy. They got so caught up, poor Curtis got put on the floor because...

...Brittany's in labor again. I knew that was coming.

Here's Karoline. Baby number 10!!!
*Simmer's note: interesting fact I brought 7 of their 10 children into the world. Also Wen was playing with some sims' genetics awhile back and I just now got this green skin tone in my game, so presto there it is. I was SHOCKED!

Well right back to it, Braidy needs those scholarships.

Good thing too, it's Braidy's Birthday.

Oh and what a lovely young woman she has become.

Looks like lots of babies in her future too.

Oh Braidy, I know it sucks to have to share your birthday with your little brothers, but what are you to do? At least you get a birthday unlike some people I've read about.

Shortly there after the 11th household member arrived!

Meet North. Isn't she cute!?!?!

Everyone loves her.

Everyone in the house was busy with the new puppy or the babies, so Keenan asked Parker Jonas to help him with his speech.

More adorable pictures of North.

The babies and North were sleeping so everyone took to skilling. From left to right: Bastain helps Caleb learn cooking skills, Brittany helps Braidy with her mechanical and Parker continues to help Keenan with his speech.

While Barrymore plays with North
*Simmer's note: Can you tell North is the first puppy I birthed in the game? I just can't get enough of her.

Apparently North wants to have a singing career.

This is Orchid. She's new to the hood too. Look at her beautiful skin.

Didn't want you to forget about the babies with all the puppy pictures.

More puppy love.

Now it's another 3 person birthday. First is Barrymore.

What a handsome young man.

And the twins.

Time for some more tag team teaching.

And another baby loving the pup.

Here's where we'll leave The Bach family. With Braidy calling for her scholarships.

Not bad. She's ready to go, but she'll hang out for the moment to help out the the babies.

Well it looks like there's a new poker game starting, gotta run. - Rachel

Gotta love bloggers pictures. I don't know about you, but I don't drive like that.

Round 8: The Skywalkers

2006-11-22T01:16:00.000-05:00

Round 8: The Skywalkers
I had a really hard time getting into this house and I can get into trouble when I'm bored.

Jango: Dear Diary, This has been an interesting week.

My grandpa's second wife is still here and she's lonely. It's sort of sad.

Mom (Stormy) has made some enemies, see Holly Simselves.

Mom paid her off with a few simoleons and they got along better.

She was very happy.

So Holly turned her attention on a visitor, Parker Jonas.

So Argon and I were doing our homework and...

... Tiny Bach played the piano and...

...and Mom and Dad were chillin'...

... while Holly tried to steal our gnome, so much for that pay off.

Once we finished our homework it was time to watch the Yummy channel and see what we could pick up.

Then we heardDad jumping on the sofa from the other room. What a weirdo!

Then he like called someone and next thing we know...

... a cop car showed up

But it was cool, they just dropped off a dog, Dakota.

She can be a bad dog.

But she likes to play with strays,

and learn tricks from Mom.

But then she turns her back and Dakota is sleeping on Claire's bed and...

... chewing up our homework...

... or rolling around in pee.

we had visitors this week too. Quavi came by to see Mom.

Claire spent some time on the phone which seemed to make her less lonely.

Dad invited his friend Gwen over from college.

They talked about this Rachel lady that...

...had an accident.

Oh and the cops came again.

This time with a boy dog, Fred.

Claire took to him too.

And she got a Womrat, named Fifi.

This week wasn't without it's excitement.

This Kristi lady attacked Mom's friend Quavi.

and lost.

Then Claire had her brother in law Bastain over, that was good for her too.

She also painted protraits of me and Argon.

So did I mention I like Fifi too?

I do and get over it.

Claire was more lonely than any of us thought. She called this gypse to get her a date.

I decided why not, get a date too?

She called up this chick with pig tails. Umm, what kind of teenager wears pigtails?

She's fun though.

I think Argon was jealous.

Claire tried to keep his mind off it as much as she could.

Dad was getting bored around here too.

So he decided to start giving make overs.

And who did he start with? My date, Tosha! Man she's HOT now!

Once I saw how hot she was I just couldn't resist planting one on her.

Dad was even brave enough to let Gwen give him a make over.

Then how does he return the favor?

He messes her's up.

Although I thought it was sorta cool.

Fred didn't though, he started chasing her around the living room.

Claire and Stormy thought it was funny.

So I was getting all skilled up for college and I needed a few more so...

I zapped this Sandy lady to get some of her's.

It's alright though, she isn't very nice.

I really started to worry about Claire when I saw this, but then someone told me she was just teaching Dakotas how to play dead.

Ut-Oh I think Argon was just looking and trying to read this.

Anyway, Tosha likes the deaf beats I try to lay down.

Grandma Amanda showed up late in the week and scared Aunt Lexi.

I guess Sandy didn't take being zapped too well. She's going around saying she's Zoro now.

This creepy vampire nanny stalked by the house tonight. What a weirdo!

Then this fight broke out!

Wait what is this?

Well that's it, tiem to play toss the gnome!

Round 8: The Morellis

2006-11-14T18:33:00.000-05:00

Round 8: The Morellis
Whose Your Daddy?

Mariabella: Hey there, welcome back. I'm Mariabella, I look a little different than the last time you saw me huh? Yeah, lots has happened. It's been a real roller coaster. Let me clue you in.

These are my parents Tiny and Ranger Morelli. They were pretty happy I think.

This here is Kristi Strickland stealing our newspaper. It seems my parents made lots of enemies.

Dad decided he wanted a couple cats. Said no house is complete without um. This is Roux.

We had to teach him not to scratch everything to pieces.

Here's a guy that didn't like Dad, Chevy. Like he has anything to be too proud of, he's wearing a chicken hat for Pete's sake!

Here's our second cat Dad adopted, Sweets. She's pretty.

See what I mean, Dad and Chevy did NOT get along. I can't believe Mom went out there in her undies to cheer him on Gawd!!!

Dad won though thank goodness, nothing like losing to a guy in a chicken hat to ruin your day.

Dad sure did love those cats.

So do I, in fact. Look at that air she got there. Yep, that's me as a child.

The kitties like to play when we're all gone.

Here's when Mom helped me with my homework. Notice Dad running in the background? Yeah that's what did it I think.

Grimmy came for my dad that day.

Everyone was so upset except that Chevy guy, he cheered! What a jerk! At least he took off that stupid hat.

Even the cats cried.

Mom started listening to music and rocking out pretty quick after Dad died. She also invited over a friend of her's, like right away.

Yep it was Kalan. He's been pining after her like forever I guess.

What is it with this house? Dad's second wife, Wen, moved in right after his first wife died and now this this. Dad's urn is still on the living room floor and Mom's getting engaged already

Kalan seems like a good enough guy, so we'll see. I think I'm more upset with Mom anyway.

Speaking of Wen. Ghosts are running wild here.

Next thing I know Mom announces she's pregnant. Well the timeline is sort of hard, so I set myself to figuring out who the baby's daddy is?

Kalan loves the cats too. I bet Dad would be happy that someone else loves them even if it's his replacement. I miss my Dad and the cats do too I know.

So then this van shows up. Everyone was all confused. Mom figures Dad called them.

So this lady drops off a little sister for me, named Mardee. She has giraffe skin and has an interesting face.

Mom took right to her, like she was a gift from Dad from beyond.

She taught her everything she needed to know.

Mardee loves the cats too. Yep definitely from Dad.

Well apparently the ghosts were awakened by Mardee's arrival because they started what can only be described as the most ruthless hauntings in the history of sim-kind

Maybe you can't tell, but the bowling alley is floating, creepy!

Mom said the ghosts were so bad she didn't know if she would make it through the night. She wanted me and Mardee to have a legal guardian without too much fuss so they eloped.

That sure didn't stop the hauntings though.

Mom sue was happy when the next morning came.

Here I am getting my first A+. My teachers were so proud with all I had been through.
Sweats and Roux both got jobs. They both are doing well.

Kalan helps out with tricks they need for work.

Mom does too.

Before we knew it, it was time for my sisters to be born

Yep, I said sisters, plural!

Times like this I sure do miss Dad. He's been through this so much. He would know just what to do.

Little Arianna and Brianna came into our family. They look pretty similar. They both have blond hair. Arianna has red eyes and Brianna has brown.

Sweets is doing really well at her job. Here is when she got another promotion.

Kalan brought home that jerk Chevy. I heard they're friends, interesting since he hated my dad.

Kalan got this pet house in hopes that they would have kittens, but Roux and Sweets don't like each other.

Before too long it was Mardee's birthday. Kalan took to her like she was his own. Dad would be happy that she had a father figure.

Kalan hired this weird looking nanny for when he's at work. With me, Mardee and the twins, even if Mom is off she needed the help.

Although she spent a lot of time taking care of this bag of flour. How odd!

Oopps, I don't know how this got in here. Keep moving along.

No, don't worry this isn't Mom dying too. She's just showing Sweets how to play dead.
She even worked on potty training Roux.

We aren't quite there yet.

This is Mardee on her first day of school.

Kalan really is a good guy. He really loves Mom and all us girls.

He helped the twins grow up too.

Oh and Roux got promoted.

Oh yeah, here's Brianna at her cake. Mom's friend Xuan was there too.

Arianna defiantly doesn't look like Dad and I think Brianna looks more Mom. So I guess Kalan is their father. I'm no fool and I guess that means Mom had Woohoo with Kalan before Dad died.

I started to think there was something amiss when the elevator cable snapped right after I realized this. The electrician said it was just old though.

Mom helped Mardee with her homework. I know how much Dad would have liked to do that *sign* But he's gone.

That day Mom said she wasn't feeling too well again and we both had our suspicions. I sure wasn't happy about it, but Dad is gone and Mom's remarried so if her and Kalan were going to have a baby, I guess that's alright, they already have twins after all.

Mom kept helping the cats learn their necessary tricks. Dad would be happy that they were doing well.

Kalan gets along with Mom's friends really well. They even talk about WooHoo so I guess they are pretty close.

They sure did enjoy teaching the twins to walk together.

Kalan is a wonderful father. I'm glad Mom has someone that makes her happy.

Xuan also likes to visit with Mardee. She maxed out her logic thanks to many chess games.

Kalan helped her with her creativity.

As much as I like Kalan, I'm always happy to see Mom when she gets home.

Oh yeah, there's the cats fighting.

Mom's suspicions were confirmed today thanks to a doctor's visit.

All toddlers love cats don't they?

This is Lynn, she's a local. She's a nice woman, a little weird though. Who wears a pirate outfit all the time?

Mom loves to spend her pregnancy playing with the twins.

I learned to be more creative too.

I guess Kalan has enemies too. No he isn't fighting Lynn, she's just gotten too close.

Oh, here's my birthday.

Didn't I turn into a lovely teen? Yeah, well girls just wanna have fun ya know?. I was going for a Cyndi Lauper sort of look here.

Lynn claims she's shy, but here she is getting into the hot tub all nakee!

So now you're all caught up. Mom's about ready to pop

I'm trying to get a few more scholarships before I head to University.

The twins are working on their skills

And Mardee is dreaming sweet dreams.
Catch ya later!

Round 7: University

2006-10-14T21:05:00.000-05:00

Round 7: University

Ok don't ya'll faint on me now. There are 15 kids in University now. I know you have been reading the blog this round, so you know some of the teens had loves, and began going steady. My heart just could not let them break up. :)

Let's start with the ones that were already here when I got the hood. That would be Tressie Tellerman, and cousins Ian and Mario Morelli.

Man. Mario Morelli has a pair of ears on him. He is a fortune sim with a want of 5 Top Level businesses. My thought was to get him started on that, but I did not. Bastain wore me out. lol SO I just let him write novels to get his wants.

Mario the Novelist. Mario has 4 more semesters to go before graduation.

Ian Morelli is pretty handsome, and is a Knowledge Sim. Does he remind you of a So-And-So in Prosperity Falls? He has 4 more semesters to go.

This is Romance Sim Tressie Tellerman with the 'engaged' symbol above her head. HUH? A Romance Sim and a Knoweldge Sim engaged? Incredible I know. They had two bolts. But to even things out, Tressie is now a Knowledge Sim, but there are still only two bolts. She has three more semesters to go.

Now for the Noobies.

Joe Morelli and Jack Jonas

Kate Bach

Shannon Bach

Locke Bach

Stephanie Morelli

Now for the house where the hood kids live with their intendeds.

Amadalla Tellerman and....

Alvin Futa

Beju Skywalker and...

Meadow Thayer

Ood Bnar Skywalker and....

Former newspaper delivery girl Amy Jones

Ya'll have fun now, ya hear?

Round 7: Jonas

2006-10-14T20:45:00.000-05:00

Round 7: Jonas

Hello once again. I am almost done with the hood for my round. I have had loads of fun with all the families like I did the first time I played them. It is so much fun seeing what you guys do with them after my turn. :) Therefore, I take no responsiblity for the actions of the Sims in the Jonas house. They have a mind of their own, you know. I know you all will have fun seeing what they did during their time with me. So without further ado.

I open the lot, and expeirence a bit of nausea coming from Lexi. Well, yeah...I did know she was pregnant. She constantly showed up on other lots in the hood barfing. But I just didn't know with who's baby. We were left with that cliffhanger. lol Who's da daddy? lolol But it doesn't matter. As you can see, Myrin finds his wife to be beautiful in pregnancy.

It didn't take much time for the pregnancy to make itself known. Oh what is that I see? An evil kite hanging on the wall? There were two of them on the lot. Hm.

Do you all know what happens with these things? Myrin grabbed it off the wall that night and went kite flying. Well. Nothing happened. Myrin tried several times to get it to fly and it just fluttered to the ground. No biggie.

Lexi tells Moonchild all about the new family member being added to the family.

OUCH! Here Lexi gets the daylights slapped out of her right in front of her husband Myrin. Parker is upset. He witnessed Lexi kissing Myrin, just a couple of days after they had had a dream date that resulted in her 'delicate condition.' Like, he really has a right to do that. Yeah.

Myrin is so upset finding out his wife was unfaithful to him, he goes outside to take solace in the quiet summer sky with a kite.

WOAH!!!!

Myrin's needs were full, so I didn't worry about this. Little did I know that this could happen after a lightening strike....

Fire. Of course. No one else is home except for pregnant Lexi, who is in bed sleeping. I quickly click the phone for her to dial out an emergency. After all, no fire alarm outside.

Myrin burns for a few more seconds before I realize I didn't click for Lexi to get out of bed. I got a clue when the firetruck didn't come, and quickly got her out of bed. But I was too late.

Buh-Bye Myrin. It was good knowin' ya.

What I found truley amazing was Lexi's reaction to all this. She didn't cry while Grim was doing his job. She merely bent down and started cleaning up the mess Myrin's ashes left. Yeah. Whilst thinking about her dislike of the mailman at the same time.

Then she pays bills. The woman did not, and has not at all grieved for her husband. It is as if he never existed. She was not upset at all. I was so dumfounded by this I didn't even think about having her beg for his life. So much for Myrin.

Ah well. In the mean time, Moonchild and Parker's last child, Devon grows up. He wants to go to bed right away. He is tired.

I want to mention something here. I think Parker is a Family Sim in disguise. He always came running when the kids needed something.

See? Constantly was playing with Devon or reading him stories. Well. He was mad at Lexi for kissing her husband, and then he was mad at Moonchild 'cuz apparently he caught her cheating at Bastian's open venue. So his attention was turned to the kids. Yeah. But as time went on, he and Moonchild made up without my help. I guess they were really meant to be together.

Awww. It started with chaste little kisses like this.

Ah. Here is Jack. I don't have many pictures of him because he is a Knowledge Sim, and all he did was skill. But he did stay in plat the whole week. Very good. He has all but 4 skills to max out. He will be leaving for Uni.

Look what the hussy is doing. Exaclty 24 hours after her husband died, she is flirting with notorius womanizer Abhijeet. Now she is really scraping the bottom of the barrel with that one.

Finally the day came when Ivey was born. A pretty girl. Of course I immediatley clicked Lexi's family tree to see who the daddy of Ivey is. Parker. So poor Myrin didn't have any descendants.

She looks alot like her mother but she has bright green eyes and brown hair.

Parker loved taking care of her. He would make a beeline for her when she started crying, and Lexi would continue playing piano or what ever held her attention at the time. Witch.

Lexi tried to make up with him, but he really wasn't interested in talking to her. but he didn't hold that against Ivey.

Moonchild stepped right up to the plate in support of Parker and Ivey. In fact, Moonchild insisted that Ivey's crib be in the room with her and Paker. Lexi was relieved of the responsiblity. She is nothing but a playgirl.

At any rate. Here is Jore Morelli spreading more destruction around the neighborhood. Lexi did manage to clean this up.

Devon starts bringing home kids on the bus with him. Here Barrymore Bach visits.

Here is his twin, Braidy.

Awww by this time Parker and Moonchild are acting like nothing at all has happened between them. Little Ivey brought them back together.

Lexi has done a couple of things right. She helped Ivey have her birthday. Isn't she a cutie-patooty?

And she brought some big simoleons to the house! Yeah!

And to end this turn with the Jonas Family:

Parker: Moonchild, is it incredible all the cheating that has been going on in the hood lately? I mean, I heard that Elizabeth and Cloudy Skywalker was havin' trouble. Then there is that ho Lexi. She nearly broke you and me up. Then there was....

Moonchild: Oh Parker I know! There is so much cheatin' goin' on, and so many bastard children in this neighborhood they could make a movie!

Round 7: The Tellermans

2006-10-13T22:22:00.000-05:00

Round 7: The Tellermans

Okie schmokie. If you all will recall, Bastain Bach had run an Open Venue business to aid in reaching his LTW of 5 top rated businesses. I found that Bastain had had seven fights with Cloudy Skywalker, who happens to live in the Tellerman house with his wife, Elizabeth Morelli-Skywalker. Don't ask how they came to live there. lol

Well, I found it funny that Bastain had fought seven times with the same person, one Cloudy Skywalker. So I decided to check out Cloudy's memories, first thing upon entering this lot. Get a look:

AND..........

Yeah. So I check out his personality. Cloudy only has two nice points. In other words, he is as mean as Kennedy Cox. hehehe. Looks like there was some cheatin' going on, as well. Getting caught, and catching someone. lol. I stirred up a hornet's nest with that open venue. Now all kinds of people in the hood are mad at each other, but it just makes things more interesting.

So I decide to let Cloudy have a party just to see who would come. Look at his list of enemies...

I didn't bother inviting any of those people.

At any rate, the party commenced with a few of the Sims who really didn't mind Cloudy's mean nature. But looky here.......A Sim on the Enemies list showed up uninvited....

This Sim is on a quest.

The party is goin' along great. In fact, Cloudy is being a great host and behavin' himself...passing out snacks and stuff. Like a good guy. But Kennedy looks like he has some real business there in the Tellerman house that day.

OH my! But look closely. Kennedy is fightin' with somebody who has two knobs on her head. lolol

Heh. Two Maxis Sims that don't get along. For sure. Kennedy left after the fight. It was as if he came there just to do that. The party went on with out incident. That is strange, 'cuz if you notice, one of Cloudy's old girlfriends is there.

OH well anyway. Here it is....

The token sneakin' picture. Heh. All the teens wanna sneak out first thing when I open the lot. I forget who Amadalla snuck out with. LOLOL She did this the first night after the party.

Speaking of Amadalla. At the party she and Alvin Futa fell in crush/love...ahhh..another Maxis Sim lures our hometown heros.

In the meantime, Cloudy and Elizabeth start making up. Yeah...apparently she found him cheating somewhere, as you can see by his memories. Probably at Bastain's open venue. She was furious with him. But they kept naturally gravitating to each other and made up on their own. I wasn't gonna help 'em.

But, even though Cloudy was trying to be a lover to Elizabeth, he still harbored fighting thoughts. Look at this. He is thinking about fighting while Anakin has thoughts about not wanting to fight. They are enemies too.

Anakin too just wants to be a great lover to his fiancée Shada Tellerman. One of the few true Tellermans in this house. So they decide to get married in a quiet bedroom ceremony. It worked. Fighting is the last thing on Anakin's mind.

Shada is the peacekeeper. She attempted to keep an even keel on everything. She constantly congratulated Cloudy on his accomplishments.

It didn't take long before Shada and Anakin had a little Alien bun in the oven.

Hmmmm I wonder if these two will be makin' any little buns?

And poor Kalan is on the prowl. Here he is already graduated from University..living in the Tellerman house, and not even engaged. This nice woman came home with him from work. They have one bolt, but there doesn't seem like there is real chemistry there.

Ah. Cloudy's son Joe has come to visit. If you will remember, Joe did some pretty mean things over at the Morelli house this round. Smashed Connie's urn, and stomped the graves of Wen SimSelf and Ron SimSelf. Here he knocks over the trashcan of his dad's house.

Then he runs around back and starts ruining the flower beds. GAD! The boy really has a chip on his shoulder!

Here Amadalla got some practice cooking for the family. Mmmmm just what everybody wanted! Charred pork! Now that is done pork!

Elizabeth is doing well. She reaches the top of another career.

In efforts to make himself more attractive to women, Kalan also reaches a milestone in his career and reaches perm plat status. Hmmm..maybe he looks like a good provider now.

BOYS! Boys! That's enough, I tell you! Anakin looks like he is on the losin' end of this fight.

Anakin tries to get back at Cloudy, but his sissy slappin' doesn't have much effect on the tough street fighter.

Kalan is showing how helpful he can be around the yard by repairing the flowerbed. If that doesn't get a woman interested in him, I don't know what will.

Well between all the drama of fighting and flower bed smashing, little Cado Skywalker is born. What a strapping lad!

Amadalla is having thought about Alvin. Hm. I wonder?

Woah! I think Kalan has hit on something here! Here is Tiny Bach. She came walking by the house one day, and Kalan ran out to greet her. And greet her he did!

Woo-hoo! So has Amadalla!

Kalan gets some pointers from the kids.

Cloudy catches an eyefull too. I hope this helps him to be a nicer person.

Apparently Kalan learned alot....

Hehehehe

GAWD! Do they need an audience! Kalan looks completely goofy here!

Yeah, yeah, yeah...we know Kalan. I don't think YOU need an audience.

*AHEM*

And here is where we leave the Tellermans for this round. lol

Great job, Amadalla! She will be leaving for University. Will her man be there with her????

Round 7: The Bachs

2006-10-08T11:36:00.000-05:00

Round 7: The Bachs

Howdy. Here is another lot played in the saga of Viosinage Partagé. The patriarch of the Bach family is Bastain since all the original CAS Sims have passed on to the great Sim Beyond in this family. Bastain is a Fortune Sim with an LTW to own 5 Top Rated Businesses. pfft. Like to think it would never happen. Here we go.

We open the story noticing that Brittany Morelli-Bach, Bastain's wife, is pregnant, her last trimester. We know she can pop any minute. The kids Shannon, Kate and Matthew are scampering off to school. I decide to have Bastain visit his businesses. The first one we visited was the grocery store. It was on level 7.

Yes, Bastain is a hard worker. He is sweatin' at the brow. He starts decidin' he needs to get some employees in the place.

Leia Skywalker apparently had put her name in with the employement agency. She wanted something different. She was tired of being a Business Tycoon. OH yes! Bastain had something really different for her to do. In fact, she did it so well, Bastain promoted her to manager right away. Maybe he could start to take it easy.

Why lookie who it is. Lynn SimSelf is shopping for brain food. She is a knowledge Sim, you know. Very quiet and shy. Needs all that extra protien for her brain cells. She buys lots of chicken.

Bastain brings on Joe Carr. Hm. This makes me think he might have already been employed here. hehehehe Joe is great because he has badges already in stocking and casheiring.

Back at the house, there is sneakin' goin' on. What is about the Viosinage Partagé teens sneakin' around all the time? Kate is a Pop Sim, so she is contantly wanting to go out, and make friends. She got some badly needed aspiration with this. Good thing she didn't get caught!

Even though Brittany is pregnant, she is still working on her skills. She needs two more charisma to promote to Blockbuster Director. She made it.

In the meantime, things are swinging at the grocery. But Bastain feels that there is still something that can be done.

He approaches his friend Lynn Simself to help him out. She is flabbergasted to be approached like this, but agrees to help Bastain. As soon as the deal was made....

WOW! A level 10 grocery! Way to go Bastain, looks like your tireless efforts paid off. Now, two more level 10 businesses to go, and you will be home free.

Back at the Bach Poker Parlour, Stephanie Morelli decides to mix herself a drink. Hm. I thought she was underage.

Taking a clue from their dad, Shannon and Kate get jobs and both reach the top of their career. Nice scholarships!

Finally the big day arrives for Brittany and Bastain. Their next child was about to be born. Hm. I wonder why Brittany is looking so surprised by this development? Labor is something she has been through before. And she has been through this before...

Yep, twins. Baby boy Barrymore and baby girl Braidy. If you will remember in the Skywalker story.... Look Closely. Yeah. The Skywalkers were havin' a party, and Brittany came waltzing in probably 'cuz her sister Claire lives there. She partook in the goodies that came out of Claire's backpack. Emergency food was needed as the fridge was unstocked and there was a big crowd to feed.

Bastain started staying home much of the time and took care of the babies. After all, his youngest son Matthew has grown up.

Yep that's him. Another Knowlege Sim. Good. They are easy, albiet maybe a little boring to play. Great to have around.

Bastain has Robots Inc, but it seems to be getting along great without him. He decides to start and Open Venue. One of those types of places where a person can get on an instrument and entertain their friends. Bastain knew this was something he could sleep through. In no time at all, he had another level 10 business, and was $300,000 richer, and had gained 3 Best of the Best Awards for this lot. (I set this to run for four hours on fast speed whilst I slept. Teehee) He now had 4 top level business memories.

Braidy and Barrymore were very receptive to their dad's money makin' ways.

In the meanwhile, Shannon starts dating Alvin Futa. There is nothing there, no chemistry. She is Pleasure, and he is Knowledge. He was good for First Kiss.

In the meantime, the twins grow up. Awww...cute! The required baby birthday picture.

Woah! Isn't Braidy cute? I think so. Barrymore did not grow up on the same day Braidy did. He waited until after midnight. lol

Oh look, Rachel is in running competition with Stephanie Morelli. Can ya handle it Rachel??

Oh yes. The first time Barrymore tried to grow up it didn't happen. Right when Bastain brought him to the cake, this announcement was made. HORRAY!! The Bach Poker Parlour was a level 10 business. Bastain was now in perm plat.

Finally little Barrymore grows up. :) He carries the Morelli trait, The Nose. What a nice sister Shannon is, taking time from her party to help Barrymore grow up.

Look who is visiting the Bach Poker Parlour? Why, it is Lexi Skywalker-Jonas. Heh. Looks like she is pregnant, havin' a little nausa there. I wonder who the dad is? Read Jonas round 6 for backstory.

Hey lookie! Alvin is leaving Shannon a 'Thanks For The Great Time' present. YAY! My Simmies love getting presents no matter how rich they are. The Bachs by far have been the most successful family in the hood.

DUH!!! He sneaks back away without leaving it! It was a telescope! Boo!

Havin' kids, workin' jobs...things are starging to slow down now. Brittany chills out by taking a chance with the water toy in the yard. Nice and refreshing.

Bastain leaves the worrys behind of running several businesses by joining his patrons in the poker parlour for a few hands.

Things stayed quiet for a while, then the twins grew up. Awww... Braidy is going to be very beautiful.

Barrymore decided to hang out a day longer than Braidy to grow up. He was getting lots of sepcial attention from his mom and decided to take advantage of it!

Finally it was time for him to grow up. His mom Brittany had the pleasure this time.

There you go! All growed up. TeeHee

Bastain acknowledges his daughter's accomplishments. Both of them would be leaving for Uni soon.

Looks like Braidy will be a go getter too!

And this is where we leave the Bachs for this round. Here you see Bastain and Brittany making future plans. See ya next time!

PS - I redid the whole downstairs in Glamour Life furniture and wallpapers, plus I moved a coupla walls. I decided this family with almost a million in cash and assets needed to look like they have money. Someone else, who is so inclined can do the upstairs. ;)

Round 7: Falkor and Mara Bach

2006-10-06T21:39:00.000-05:00

Round 7: The Falkor Bach Residence

Yep, I went and done it. I opened a new lot in the hood. Had to. Everyone was packed like sardines in the rest of the houses. OK. Before I played any of the houses in the hood, I went house to house and checked out who was engaged, married...ect. I found that Mara Tellerman and Falkor Bach were engaged, but living in seperate houses. So ok.

Awww look. It is Bastain and Brittany Bach waving goodbye to Falkor. He immeidately got on the phone and moved out. He had found a new place to live. He found it odd and difficult to live in the same house with his relative Bastain and his brood. With Brittany ready to pop again at any time, Falkor figures this is a good time to leave.

Buh-Bye Falkor! Ya'll come back now, Ya Hear? lol yeah right.

This is the house. It is a download from...uh...someplace. It features a below the ground garage. The car looks strange when it comes and goes, but the whole lot is just really cool. It was packed with all custom windows and wallpapers and flooring. I changed all that to Maxis stuff. Rachel pay attention to the stairs. You might have to do something with that. I couldn't figure that out.

Falkor invites his love Mara shopping at Four Winds shopping for wedding clothes. But there is some business to take care of first.

Mara had a want to have her picture taken with Falkor. So in they scoot. Little did I know...

Falkor was harboring a fear of getting his pic taken. I didn't pay much attention. He lost 1,500 asp points right away. Sad. So I had to liven things up!

Apparently Mara had a dislike for public woo-hoo. GAWD....look at that face! I guess no more hopping in the photo booth for those two for anything at all!

While at the shopping center, Falkor and Mara have a visit with Mara's twin sister Shada. I understand she is unattached. Hm. :)

It is time to set up for the wedding. Mara is supposed to go to work but she calls off. Heh. I always get a gas out of this when a Sim fakes being sick.

You may kiss the bride...SWOOP....kiss....hehehe Nobody wanted to sit down and watch the ceremony. They were inside playing kickybag and other things like that. Man.

Cuttin' the cake...here have a bite. lol The dress and veil Mara is wearing is from Glamour Life. I really like the dress.

Hrumph. Moonchild, the hussy. Came to the wedding dressed in her wedding gown. Trying to steal the limelight. huh.

Guests and the bride and groom settle down for some fine vittles.

No wedding is complete without the Sim tradition of kickybag. Yeah. Even at weddings. lol

Late into the evening, the wedding party is still goin' on between these two. They have just gotten back from their honeymoon. Neighbor Catalin Day-Skywalker comes by to give the newlyweds her blessing. Oh and see who is comin' down the steps in the background? That is Leia Skywalker. Did I forget to mention she moved in with them? She was stuffed into the Tellerman house with Mara. I just clicked her to move out too with Mara.

She decides to do a little stargazing being that there is no need for her to be around tonight. Mara and Falkor are gonna be plenty busy with no need of her conversation. Leia is looking for her man.

Errrr...Cait...they are kinda busy, ya know????

Leia decides to be a good sport and entertain Catalin so the newlyweds can have some privacy. hehehe As you can see, Leia is proud of the fact she is a business tycoon. She brings big money into the house.

That night, the bride and groom settle down for some snuggling and woo-hoo. Falkor bought Mara a new evening gown on their honeymoon. She has already changed into it so she wont' show up at future weddings in her wedding gown. *AHEM*.

Falkor goes job hunting on the computer. Yeah, yeah, he couldn't let the ladies do alla the work. Take a look at this. On Wednesday when both of them went to work here is what they brought in:

Yep, Mara got a nice bonus. And right after that....

Heh. Leia got a bonus. The house got fixed up some more! Falkor ended up getting a job in the Athletic industry. He spun up a want to get a job in that area. He got it the first day.

OH well...hehehe...I just had to. Hmmm well she was already preggers at her wedding. Photo booth woo-hoo works every time! Yeah!

HO HO! What is going on here? I understand Leia and Quavi er...Quaxi..heheh had a thang going on years ago. Leia decides to call him up to see if he will come over. He scampered his cute lil' butt right over to her house.

They decide to car date in Falkor's expensive set of wheels. Yeah.

BOING!!!!!

In the meantime, Mara is happily waddling thru her pregnancy. I think it agrees with her. She didn't vomit once.

Oh wow!~ Leia gets the same bonus! This house has NO money problems now. Leia can retire now if she wants to. Wow! hehehe There is plenty of money to add on the house for future generations! *hint*

Hm. This might be a little out of order. Leia and Mara become best friends. Good thang since they live in the same house, huh.

Finally the big day arrives, and little Fawn is born. Notice how her name starts with the same letters her dad's does? :)

Here she is. Pretty baby.

It is time for her to grow up already. Falkor is home to do the duty, and he doesn't mind at all.

Happy Birthday Fawn!!!!

Falkor falls right into his fatherly duties and helps take care of Fawn. He doesn't mind helping with potty training.

In the meantime, the romance between Quavi and Leia blossoms. Those two can't get enough of each other.

This is where I end my turn with the Falkor Bach home. Next time I visit, little Fawn will be all grown up. :) I will get to help put her thru Uni.

See ya next time!

Round 7: The Skywalkers

Round 7: The Skywalkers

Heh. Look at that picture. As you can tell, Atreyu has aged to elder. Notice what he is wearing. He now matches his son space traveler extraordinaire Ood Bnar in the wearing of the kilt. I have never had a teen grow up in it or an elder either. Kinda cool. Alrighty. Let's get started. With no babies born in this house and no weddings this round, you are probably thinkin...what the heck did the Skywalkers do? Well, by gosh gee wilikers, plenty! First thing right off all the Skywalker boys are leaving for school. As soon as they leave, ol' Luke gives his main squeeze Claire Morelli-Simself-Skywalker some attention. I am thinking they got married last round. But I really wouldn't know. *ahem*. I didn't see a blog on it....just pictures... lolol

See there? I am thinking...why did Claire marry this old man who is about ready to kick the bucket? Then I catch on. Clair's LTW is to reach her golden anniversary. But it didn't happen for her. *sigh* We'll get to why later. But for now, let us take a look at the kids.

Aww...look at that. Jango brings home an A. He is just beside himself with happiness. These A's will come in handy for him. Ood Bnar stares after his brother. Hm. Ood Bnar is a Fortune Sim. He things TONS about making money. The first thing he rolls is 'Get a Job In Athletics.' It isn't like he needs the money....but he gets one. The job.

And NOOoooo...it isn't tossin' gnomes. Heh. He made it clear up to Mascot in his teen job in just...like a day. What an overachiver Ood Bnar is. He got that scholarship plus the one for Extra Terrerstrial. My gosh how cool is that. BTW, Ood Bnar did this autonomously. I had never seen a Sim do this without being told. The Skywalker boys were constantly throwing the gnome.

Here are the boys leaving for school. This makes a really great shot.

You know how it is. They always bring somebody home with them. Here is Mariabella Morelli (just born this round in the Morelli house) comin' home with Aargon. I guess because the celebration is him getting an A, so somebody comes home on the bus.

More school pictures. *smile* All the Skywalkers are sooooo good looking.

Ah. Look who came over after school on this day. Matthew Bach and his sister Shannon. Beju practices his prowress at conducting music, and Argon gets yet another A.

Hey look! Stormy gets promoted to Visionary in the Art field.

Hey look! Atreyu gets fired from his job as a Celebrity Chef due to trying to pay somebody off. Bad mistake Atreyu! He is now Mayor of Viosinage Partagé. Go you Atreyu!

Ok we all know Luke was brought back from the dead because of a problem. He really didn't wanna leave the hood. And even this time, he argued with Grim. Bah. When it is time to go, it is time go go.

Now there is nice inheritances. :) Love to see those tombstone icons with Simoleon signs on them. Ok let me point out a coupla things in that picture. Remember when I said Claire didn't make it to her golden anniversary? Well it is because Luke died before Claire aged. Also, there is somebody in the energizer in the background. Who is it?

It was Jango. Yup, he aged to teen right when Luke died. It was a hectic time for about a Sim hour there. The first thing I do with teens is run 'em right to the energizer when they age up. He is a Knowledge Sim. He wants to be a Mad Scientist.

Now being that Stormy and Atreyu are both Pleasure Sims, there was always lots of partying going on in the house. Here we are at one of the parties where there is a killer game of kickybag going'. Look who all is in the picture.
First of all I am wonderin' why Jack Jonas has on makeup. Does he have a double life in the Viosinage Partagé we don't know about?? Aw look. There is Meadow Thayer.

Beju had a bad experience with her. Aww.

First of all, ya got to get her to like you at least a little bit, Beju. Heh.

Ohhhh...here is Ood Bnar putting the moves on that foxy paper girl, Amy Jones. Hm. I wonder what their kids would like if they got together???

Claire finally had her grow up day. She missed her golden anniversary by 1 day. Poor thing. She is destined to fight green aspiration for the rest of her life.

Here is a party that happened after Clair's grow up. I know. A little late.

Brittany Bach sneaks over to Ood Bnar's money trees during the party and helps herself.

The new and improved Jango gives his little brother some lessons on life. He is very passionate about the whole thing. Argon seems to be keenly interested in the wisdom Jango has to pass on. Anakin pays his brothers no mind.

After being turned down for a kiss by Meadow, Beju vows to win her over. He gets into shape.

And he takes his Re-Nu-U-Porta Chug. He figures if he changes his turn ons to blonde hair and fitness, he might seem more attractive to Meadow.

Looks like Ood Bnar and Amy are gettin' along just fine.

It's official. :)

It's another birthday. You can tell Stormy called out for it 'cause there are tons of people there. Do you know who they all are? It is Argon's birthday.

Another Family Sim. Argon wants 6 grandchildren.

It is also Stormy and Atreyu's birthday. As they do everything together, they age together. :)

One....Two....Three!

Kilt Man and Wonder Woman! hehehe

Ah. Here we are back with the blossoming romance between Meadow and Beju. Yeah...you got it right this time buddy. Congratulations.

Now she is eating out of the palm of your hand!

Hey, you got nice hair!

Well, now we will wrap up this round with the Skywalkers. Stormy and Atreyu rest peacefully in bed after a successful birthday party.

Argon rests well too. He is getting good lessons on how to throw a good party from Mom and Dad. That ability is essential in a Sim's life, ya know.

See ya next round!
