The Halliwell Dynasty (IV the win!)

[Esther1981]

Haha the only 2 ways to get arrested where he lives is be a teen out after curfew, or be a criminal and he's not either so I think he's safe Kattiq.  I'll try to remember that though when he hits 89, I don't want him buried in his undies hehe.

[TheChronicR]

Awesome update indeed! I love how you managed to mix the dynasty requirements in your story, without the story losing it's charm. Plus, this one of the stories that I love. Great job, Esther!

[Esther1981]

Thank you TheChronicR! Was everyone able to see the video of them dancing?

[Juxtaposition]

I couldn't because it wanted me to log into facebook, which would be impossible without an account but that OK

[Esther1981]

Oh no. To anyone, is there a way to do it so they don't have to log into facebook? I'm sorry Juxt I'll try to get it fixed!

[Esther1981]

Ok, until I get the facebook one worked out, I uploaded the video to Photobucket. Just click the pic, I know it works I tested it before I put the link on here. Thanks Juxt!

Woo dance partay! I love that song too but I think I heard another version. Who sang that one? I'm assuming you added it in right?

[Esther1981]

Thanks Kattiq! Yes I added it. It's called "Do you realize" by The Flaming Lips. 

[kattiq]

Gotcha! I need to add some custom music into my game. But right now I'm just enjoying listening to Sef play his guitar! I love those songs they have.

[Esther1981]

Sorry it's short, but some things have happened I'm ecstatic about. First, I bought my properties! I bought Crystal Springs and the bookstore. I renamed them Patty's amazing spot and Patty's awesome books.

I also helped paint a fresco, so my paintings have gone up in value! Morty got the op to sell 10 of his masterpieces to City Hall. And the one we are really excited about it mom FINALLY got the omnificent plant op!! Here she is taking 10 perfect steaks into the bistro!

She was 88 when she ate Ambrosia for the first time, and her age reset to 69. She's now 79. So she would have been close to 100 if she had waited like she wanted to, so I'm really glad she didn't!

Melinda got to level 10 in her sculpting career, so she went and changed occupations. She's now a painter!

We celebrities have gotten quite a few gifts. Here is our new cars!

We also got a huge fish aquarium. It installed into a wall, so now we have a fishy wall haha.

Melinda gets most of the gifts in her room. The reason? She's mortal and will die so why not?

Mom decided to make nectar. Even though I asked her why and she said it's ok, we can make it just not max it. She's odd. She also fell on her butt while doing it. So out of 3 people that have made it, 2 of them have ended up on their bottoms haha. I shouldn't laugh however because I haven't attempted it. Knowing my luck I will fall too lol.

As she was making it, she was thinking about grandkids. First, she tells me too wait, now it seems she is pushing me to get pregnant!! Well mom, I took your words to heart. I'm not getting pregnant until I'm 6 days away from adulthood. Only about another week mom, hold on ok?

Considering we are Immortal, Mortimer didn't make nectar racks for us. So mom put her nectar in a store bought rack.

That's it for tonight. I have also forgotten numerous times to tell everyone our traits. So here goes. I am Over-emotional, Loves the outdoors, Photographer's Eye, Ambitious and Artistic. Dad (Allen) and Mortimer both are OE, Natural Cook, Savvy Sculptor, Ambitious and Artistic. Melinda is OE, Great Kisser, Savvy Sculptor, Ambitious and Artistic. Victor is OE, Savvy Sculptor, Green Thumb, Ambitious and Artistic. Uncle Morty has also added more kids. I'm just going to name them all and I don't have an updated pic on his tree yet. Luz, Bree, Manuel, Ginther, Christy, Cordelia, Yasmin, Lakisha, Colin, Jodi, Terri, Mitzi, Belinda, Alma, Darlene, Trever, Dara, Julianne, Efren, Jasmine, Shayna, Adrianna, Shantel, Raymond, Arnulfo, Shelby, Susanna, Mary, Hope, Caroline, Dwight, Carol, Marie, and Donavan. That's like 35 kids. Yeah 3 of them have drowned but none since I put extra ladders in so hopefully that stopped it.  Enjoy!

Esther's words:
I know I seem to talk about them dying alot. Well, I'm trying to prepare myself for the inevitable. Yes, I have killed sims before so Grim is no stranger to me, but in my last attempt, I was not ready when Chris died. It hit me really hard as most of you know. So I'm trying to mentally get ready for it. Morty is 80 now so it won't be long and I don't want to totally lose it like I did last time. 

[kattiq]

I totally know how you feel with the death thing! When Thornton died I was so sad for the first few days!
I rarely get gifts even though Charlotte is a level 4 1/2 celebrity! I guess everyone else needs to up their levels so we can get some fast cars

[Lilygirl]

The Kleenex will be ready for you, Esther, when the time comes.

[Juxtaposition]

Well I'm a Grim fan so I sypathize, but can't really relate.

Congratulations getting your properties bought.

I like the Fish wall tank, they're really cool.

[Esther1981]

Thanks Kattiq and Lily. I've got a whole house of celebrities so it seems I get a gift for someone at least every couple days! Thanks Juxt. Usually I love Grim too but that is when I'm deliberately killing them for the fun of it. When I'm playing normally I keep aging off or have life fruits and Ambrosia, so this Dynasty has pushed me to new levels of playing. I'm not saying I hate Grim, but in my Dynasty I do! 

[Saltypaws]

I liked that song in the video.  When you play your sims for so long and they die, it is sad.  I wouldn't admit it to a stranger, but on here, I am among others who also feel the same way.  I have lots of kleenex, so if anyone needs any, just ask.
