Here is a fresh update, since it has been so long and my issue is now solved. I need a reason to look over my screenshots anyway and recall where I was at.
Riley fell for the trap, and ended up being pretty embarrassed. Okay, okay, so I directed her right into it immediately and while he was still standing there. I just wanted to see what would happen!!!
I got to work early on her skills, and bought her a stove.
Here she is enjoying her accomplishments:
I also let her just be a kid. I tried to get some screenshots of that too, since I had so many of her siblings. Unfortunately she suffers from 3rd child syndrome where theres a billion pics of the first born and only two of the third. It's just that she spent so much time doing uninteresting things for the dynasty. Like cooking and studying. To be fair, I do have a hundred pictures of her cooking. Doesn't she just look THRILLED to have fun for once?? Gosh, lighten up, Riley!
Naturally, her mere presence creates a Kodak moment for this emerging zombie.
Rob has his prom, so Riley keeps him company while he waits for his limo.
Once there, he realizes that he might be overdressed.
Unfortunately, he was unable to secure a date, so he came home with this lonely (yet awesome) photo:
Riley has gotten on the honor roll, as required. She also got (and completed) the opportunity "Free Game".
So I let her age up. At some point Rory also aged up. Sadly, it was so long ago that I don't remember details.
Riley is now a couch potato, just like her mother! Rory is a hopeless romantic.
I have Riley continue working on her cooking skills... Gross, what is that.
Rubisel furthers his painting skills, and begins a nice picture of Marci:
The Conroys buy a new car:
Riley drives Marci insane begging to learn to drive.
Unfortunately, her first time out doesn't go very well. She hit the ice cream truck and almost killed her mother.
I did get this lovely scenery though:
She gets her job at the cemetery and is promoted fairly quickly.
Doesn't this look painful?
