Therie: Week 20Fhore spends her free time after school at the gym. She and Ernesto make it a date! At least I know where to find my daughter when she does not make it home in time for dinner.
Wilbert is really enjoying his new promotion and the daylight hours he's working. It means he gets off work early enough to meet up with Franklin at the park. First they get the homework out of the way.
Then they swap checkmates along with jokes and stories.
When it starts getting too dark to tell the Kings and Queens apart, Wilbert and Franklin head home for more games before bedtime.
Wednesday brings Fhore's YA birthday. I cannot believe my little girl is officially leaving her childhood behind. She wants a small family party so it is just the 6 of us.
Here she is, ready for the next phase of her life.
After cake, I prepare one more dish of sushi for Grandpa Wunn. I decide to use snails. Why is this special? Dish #75 means cooking skill is supermaxed!
Before committing to a career, Fhore decides to take some time to just enjoy being free from school and homework. She spends her days, while Ernesto is at school, at the gym. Showing off a little!
On Friday, with Ernesto still in high school, Fhore invites over her (also unemployed) BFF and cousin Dora for a day of girl time. They play video games.
And then hit the treadmill where Fhore gives Dora a couple pointers. Dora seems a little insane wearing her bathing suit to work out.
Meanwhile, Franklin celebrates his last day of school by hanging out at the library with friend Sandi. [Can't remember how to spell her last name.]
I do not think anyone is home Friday night except Dad Tu. Grandpa Wunn is out at the park playing Gnubb with his son with fiancee, Connie Greenwood, Feisal Greenwood.
Saturday brings one final birthday for Wilbert and I. It is such a mixture of happy and sad. We share one last kiss as Adults before blowing out our birthday candles.
Here we are in our new outfits.
Even with all the birthday excitement, Fhore remembers to check her social tab and notices that Ernesto celebrated his birthday yesterday. After a serving of cake, she heads over to his house for a serious talk.
Fhore gets home just before midnight, Ernesto in tow. They want to announce their commitment to one another with Ernesto moving in. Stay tuned for a proposal and wedding; hopefully. I have wanted to plan Fhore's wedding since her YA birthday!
Ernesto is subjected to a home-made makeover (they left his eyebrows the same as before!) and now he and Fhore have a dilemma. The green-tinted nasty default hair colour has to go but what should his new colour be? His mother is Christen Curious, daughter of Bunny Curious and Sinbad Rotter. His father is deceased townie Sammie Wang. Anyway, his mother inherited her dad, Sinbad's hair colour, seen here.
They are also partial to his Grandmother Bunny's hair colour, seen here. It is a little darker.
They would appreciate any opinions as Fhore cannot decide which she likes better, and Ernesto is getting tired of her switching the colour back and forth for "just one more look."
[OK, it looks like I changed his eyebrows but I didn't. I'm not sure why his eyebrows are different in the picture before the makeover, I just noticed that. Weird.]
Next Week: Will Fhore ever make it to China? Where I am in my quest for Immortality? Franklin starts High School.
