The Webbs: Round 6 / Three Weddings and a Baby




When we last visited the Webbs, Clinton and Grace both became elders and retired from their jobs.  They took the whole family to Takemizu Village on a vacation, including Reagan, Taft and Wilson who were still in college.  Washington became a teen, and Grace created a new family member - a servo named Grace 2.0.

The Fletchers: Round 6 / Swift and Terrible-ish


When we last visited the Fletcher family, Charles and Devan got married, went on a honeymoon to Takemizu Village, and had a baby boy they named Chevy.  They also adopted a puppy from the Tucker family next door named Swift who wouldn't eat, so they gave her up for adoption.  Swift was adopted by the Brown family (Devan's vampire big brother and his vampire wife), who "trained" Swift and gave her back.

The Tuckers: Round 6 / Common Nonsense

I'm finally getting back to Apple Grove after a bit of real life and holidays.  I had this idea that a holiday post with all the different families would have been cool, but there would have been too many spoilers because the families have been played farther than what you've seen so far.  Bummer.  Maybe next year if all goes well.



This is the Tucker family.  The last time we visited them, Martin's mother, stepfather, baby brother, aunt and niece all moved out, and he met and married Jill.  They had a little girl they named Artists, and Jill is pregnant with their second child.

The Cormiers Andersons: Round 5 / Revenge Is A Dish Best Served Warm In A Glass

Darn, I accidently pushed the "Publish" button this morning when not 100% finished with this post. But it is almost finished except a few minor details. I have to leave for awhile today before I can completely finish, but I'll go ahead and leave my post up.


If you've been reading Round 5, you may remember that Charity's new husband Elmer cheated on her right after their wedding when I was playing Sophie Graham's house.  I can't stand the sight of him anymore.

The Foremans: Round 5 / Big Ambitions, Tiny House



We are now returning to the Foreman house where newlyweds Cassandra and Morgan live in a very tiny house at 240 Turnover Terrace on the corner of Turnover Terrace and Strudel Street.  When we left them, we just caught a quick glance of them as they moved in earlier in Round 5 after moving out of the Bauer house.

It was an easy move, because as you can see, the Bauer house is right across Strudel Street from them.

The Todds: Round 5 / And On That Farm They Had Some...Rockin' Cockatoos



When we last saw the Todds, Catherine and Charlie had moved out of the Tucker house at the beginning of Round 5 to give Catherine's son Martin more incentive to settle down and get married.  They brought their young son Aleksei with them, as well as the two plant sims Aloe and Belladonna.  They settled into a nice farmhouse on Orchard Way.  It's not that Catherine or Charlie had any interest in farming, but Aloe and Belladonna wanted a farm.

The Jeffresses and Miguels: Round 5 / Strawberry Limeade



Both the Jeffresses and Miguels just moved into this house that was formerly owned by rockstar Brian Tucker.  Because the sisters and their new husbands were willing to share a house, they were able to get a nicer one, and I was grateful to them for giving me just one story to write this time rather than two.

The Fanceys: Round 5 / Serenity Now



When we last visited the Fancey family, they had just moved into a new house and given birth to their first child, a daughter they named Coupon.

True Colors

Hey, this is just a quick post to add a new idea.  I think I've seen another Sims 2 blog somewhere that does this, but I can't remember where right now.  If I find it again I'll add a link.  Anyway, if you've played Sims 3, you know those sims have favorite colors.

The Fletchers 2: Round 5 / EAT MOR CHIKIN



When we last left Rudy and Zoe, they were new parents of a daughter they named Wendy's.  Yes, she is named after the restaurant.  Rudy had sympathetic pregnancy cravings for Wendy's during Zoe's pregnancy.  Rudy has never been right, though.  He is addicted to old ladies, either strongly attracted to them or driven to violence against them.  Anyway, other then Rudy's quirkiness, they are a boring bunch who prefer to have their noses in books above most other activities.  Rudy is a dark wizard, but don't get too excited.  He stays as close to neutral as possible to still be allowed to wear the black robes.  He thinks they look cooler, and besides, his truly evil little sister Sophie would probably curse him if he wore another color.  Little Wendy's wears her hair in red braids to live up to her name, although she has only one nice point.  She's taken over the neighborhood newspaper theft route from Amiee Bauer who went off to college.

Rudy and Zoe just moved into a new house, and it looks like it's just in the nick of time.

The Grahams: Round 5 / Sophie's Sorcery Shop

Photobucket

The last time we visited the Grahams, Sophie had chosen to marry Daniel, one of her 20 conquests from college.  Daniel was a sweet guy who wanted to become Captain Hero.  Their first child Havelock was born, but Sophie was unhappy because she had wanted a daughter instead of a son.  When not busy at work in the education field, Sophie was in the basement studying black magic and becoming atrociously evil.  She conjured up a female feline familiar (say that 5 times fast, lol) that she named Merlin, who hates Daniel.  Daniel is lonely, but is a good father to his son Havelock since Sophie will have little to do with either of them.

Their butler "Jeeves" likes to spend his time in the dance sphere, because that's why they're paying him the big bucks.
