Goodbye old friend.


On the day that James faithful companion Grace died the family was stunned and shocked.

James who had gone fishing was blissfully unaware of the tragic loss. Hebe felt it was only right that she go and break the sad sad news to her beloved husband.

Hebe:James it is Grace she has gone.
James:But she can't be. I hate this we do all these tasks and all there is,is pain and loss.
Hebe:Here take my hand and listen to me.
James:I don't want to..
Hebe:Now you listen to me James Douglas-Smith we are so lucky we get to have a life. Now that our souls are in Union Cove we can do anything be anything that a player wants. I know Sims that never ever get to leave the Sim bin. Do you know how lucky we are to even be a part of this world.

Hebe pulled her husband into her arms and let him cry away all the hurt and loss that he felt. Tomorrow was both their elder birthdays and she did not know how much more time,in this lifetime,that they had together. She was determined to make each and every day count.

R.I.P. Grace. Great update.

[ratchie]

Acceptance.

Alistair:What is going on crazy voice lady. Why do I have a romantic interest,I swear that I never even so much as flirted with a girl.
Rachel:It is the magic of Prom.
Alistair:I went to prom on my own,no date,no romantic interest.
Rachel:Well you see i figured it out. If a Sim is best friends with someone then they almost always end up as a romantic interest at the end of the night. If they have more then one best friend the romantic interest is decided alphabetically. This is why your sisters became romantically involved with Aren Bedlington and Thad Blanco.
Alistair:Well I am off to go tell whats her face that she better leave me alone. I am not looking for any romance not now not ever.


Tammi:Well hello there lover boy,I had a great time last night.
Alistair:Don't call me lover boy,the thing is Sammi.
Rachel:Tammi..
Alistair:Ur Tammi last night wasn't exactly supposed to happen like that.

Tammi:What do you mean my little Alligator.
Alistair:The thing is Tammi about the whole romantic interests thing..
Tammi:Yes?
Alistair:Wow you have really pretty eyes,that is to say that urm I totally forgot what I was saying.
Tammi:You were saying how pretty I was and how much you wanted to kiss me.
Alistair:No I wasn't,(raises eyes to heaven)Oh I give up.

Rachel:I love it when a plan comes together.
Alistair:Go away Rachel.

Meanwhile Thad gets a text of Lizzie to meet at their spot. But it wasn't his girlfriend who was waiting for him.

Thad:Mrs Douglas-Smith I wasn't expecting you..
Hebe:I know you were expecting Lizzie. Calm down Thad I just want to talk to you.
Thad:I won't give Lizzie up whatever you say.

Hebe:Just look me in the eyes and tell me that you really honestly and truly love my daughter.

Thad:(Looks deep into Hebe's eyes) I love her.
Hebe:That is all I needed to know.

[loveSims]

Teenage boys and their hormones lol! It is good Hebe accepts Thad.

[xFezIsAFreakx]

Yey! I'm so glad Hebe accepts Thad now. And lol, I totally knew Alistair would end up falling for someone!

[ratchie]

We all adore her Isadora.


Isadora grew into a perfect little orange haired blueboo. Her brown eyes might have come from her paternal grandparents.(Booker Singleton and Imogen Pelly)

As Florrie was busy meeting and befriending NPCs and Townies the toddler training was left to Isadora's daddy.

Garrick:Come on Izzy say erm random blue bubble thing,could be a water slide maybe.
Isadora:No!
Garrick:(Sigh)

Garrick:Just try for daddy sweetheart.Repeat after me random blue bubble thing,could be a water slide maybe.
Isadora:Random blue bubble thing,could be a water slide maybe.
Garrick:Clever girl,we will tell everyone your first word was da da.

Of course it wasn't all training there was time for fun too.

Garrick:Where did daddy go where is he?
Isadora:Somebody alert the authorities abandoned toddler here.

Garrick:There's daddy.
Isadora:Thank goodness for that!

Garrick:Where's daddy gone.
Isadora:I am not falling for that again..help toddler home alone I repeat toddler left alone in swing somebody call a social worker.

Garrick:There's daddy.
Isadora:Are you trying to scare me half to death. Stop disappearing like that.

Garrick:Where's daddy..oh.
Isadora:Do you think he will leave me alone if I pretend to go to sleep.
Garrick:Night night princess.
Isadora:Works every time.

[Sunnysabjes]

Nice family! Isadora is really adorable

[MarianT]

Rachel, you kept me laughing all the way through this. Abandoned toddler, lol. And poor Alistair, trying to defy the almighty Sim goddess.

[loveSims]

Very funny update lol! Isadora is adorable.

[xFezIsAFreakx]

Aww, I do adore Isadora! She sure knows how to make me laugh!

[ratchie]

Aw thank you all for reading and for commenting. I am trying to have a mix of serious and funny story lines going on. I am really loving playing this family and I hope that comes across in my writing.

At the moment everyone is working on completing the decadynasty requirements,well everyone except for Alistair as he ages up to young adult in five Sim days and I plan on getting him married off. I think he and Tammi might just become parents before the wedding though.

Rachel

[Katluvr]

Awesome updates!  The whole scene with Isadora and Garrick was awesome!  I'm so happy Hebe is okay with Thad - it should make things a bit easier for Lizzie when the time comes. 

[ratchie]

Alistair.


Alistair:Your pregnant but we only,you know,once.
Rachel:That is all it takes. Besides I gave you the fertility treatment.
Alistair:You did what?
Tammi:Are you pleased?
Alistair:Of course I am. It is just unexpected that's all. Obviously not unexpected to some people around here.
Rachel:Oh look at the time must dash toddles.

Authors note Who knew that a graduation robe could be worn as maternity wear.Makes sense seeing as all the other female clothes from generations can be used for maternity wear.

A few days later Alistair got the message that Tammi had given birth to triplets. He and Hebe rushed over there to meet the new additions to the family.

Meet Ida Swafford a beautiful little blueboo.

Say hello to Dyana Swafford another little blueboo.

Last but not least we have Gerald Swafford.

Authors note There you go a set of mixed gender triplets that happened without any help from yours truly. They were born in a household that I am not permitted to control

[Sophie98]

I love Isadora. She's hilarious.
Welcome to the triplets! So it would appear that mixed gender multiples do sometimes occur naturally. Interesting.

[amyrose]

Great updates Rachel! Natural mixed-gender twins and triplets were introduced in the latest patch, I've had several.
