Hidden Springs, Part IVBefore we knew it, it was time for Catalina to celebrate her teen birthday.
Apparently, blowing out the candles on the birthday cake also blew away the colors on the furniture...
After a quick trip to the dresser, here is teenage Catalina.
For this birthday, she gained the
Savvy Sculptor trait.
Maria sat down with Catalina to help her get her grades up before her first day of school.
Afterward, Catalina hung out with big sister Sahara.
Art was definitely a shared passion between the two girls.
But, Catalina soon found another thing she was passionate about...
Though his face is covered up by a speech bubble, this young man is Gerard Earthsong. Courtesy of story progression, he is the son of Cassidy Earthsong and Liam O'Dourke.
Next up was Sahara's young adult birthday.
Sahara looks a lot like Maria. She is absolutely stunning and was someone I definitely saved to the sim bin to use for later.
Her final traits were
Excitable, Light Sleeper, Neat, Artistic and
Bot Fan. Sahara's lifetime wish was to become a
Rock Star.
Taking after her musical mother, Sahara wanted to join the music career and quickly got started on her guitar skill after her birthday celebration.
Here we are, a better picture of Gerard. As you can see somewhat, he had some of Cassidy's lovely genetics, so he was definitely a potential spouse for Catalina.
Until then, Catalina had some work ahead of her if she was to become the next heir. She got to work on her sculpting skill.
The following day, Sahara had her graduation. She was valedictorian and, though I didn't write it down, apparently, I'm pretty sure she was voted Most Likely to Become a Rock Star or something like that.
Well, Maria was definitely seeing stars after she tried to repair an appliance at home and failed...
Rebellious Catalina tried to help cool her mom down by rigging the sink to spray her with water.
While Sahara and Catalina worked on their skills and lifetime wishes, Havana and Greg were having a family of their own to raise. Before leaving Hidden Springs, I made sure to get a picture of their two daughters. This is Denise.
And this is Helen.
