This is a lot of fun!

Update! Summer 4: Fairchild Katrisims, thanks for the detailed comment! In this case, Snickerdoodle was sold to Stepan as a puppy at the end of the rotation, and then played through the same rotation. Fortunately Kibble of Life was there to help. If it were a challenge other than a BaCC, that 5 top ...

Nice update!

Nice update!

Great updates!

Great updates! And thanks for the shout out!

Mar, I started doing the family picture because I always seem to have a hard time keeping track of who's who when reading stories. You're quite welcome to steal it! I've certainly stolen enough ideas myself. 5 top businesses is tough, but it does have the advantage of making families who complete it...

Heads up, the "Obligatory Prince Hugs" link above goes to the first chapter instead. Great second rotation! Lots of cute kids. And twins just means the neighborhood will grow faster. It's a shame about Rodney. The prince certainly seems to like the girls in the neighborhood. It's looking l...

Nice updates!

Lorin, There was just a little of the last rank left. If I'd realized how close the Rummage Basement was to level 10, I would have gotten it there last season. I've thought about trying to make the Rummage Basement a consignment shop for the whole town, but I can't really figure out how to do it in ...

Hi! Just got all caught up.

Update! Summer 4: Parker Mar, Thanks! Excited about reaching 10,000 soon. Big families are fun, but it's nice to have some smaller families as well. The Cooke-Pavlovs were fun to play and had a good vacation. Katri, I decided "renting" vacation houses was a nice compromise that will let al...

Lorin, I had hesitated on buy any vacation homes until now, when it occurred to me that sims could buy them, use them, and then sell them back. I may be sending sims on vacation a little more often now. George and Eva do have 3 bolts; I'm not really sure who's doing the stalking. Definitely love the...

Update!
Summer 4: Cooke-Pavlov

Pengy, there are multi PT hacks out there. If you have one of those, my understanding is that hybrids can get pregnant.

Lorin, You're welcome to use the layout! Can't claim credit for the library, though. I think I got it off of Mod the Sims. Annika's doing great! I'll probably expand the house a little next season, but it's a good house that's a step above a starter. Anne, I don't think I'd used the windows in black...

Katri, It's become a point of honor for me that they must maintain their millionaire status. I like Marvin. I'm hoping his puppies with Ginger grow up better than Ginger's previous litter. Joe was really close to death. I kept waiting for the fire department, but then Nadezda put him out just in tim...

Anne, glad you're enjoying! This is a side challenge, so updates are somewhat rare. Michelle, Babs is doing a good job, in her own way. She's a slob, so the kids ended up neatniks totally by chance, but it's still funny how often they clean autonomously. I was so excited when Babs hit permaplat! Mak...

Huh. I've never actually had a teen get caught before sneaking out before. Definitely some tension between Noah and Kerie! Typical teenage stuff, but it seems to have an edge to it. I've had that weird brown eyes and messed up face glitch before - only at a community lot when they're wearing some k...
