Build-n-Share Challenge #128-130 • A Home For The Holidays
THIS IS A THREE WEEK CHALLENGE!
You sit at your desk looking at your holiday to do list, when Rose pokes her head in the door. Perplexed she says, "your four o' clock is here." "Send them on in", you reply. She hands you a packet that smells faintly of vanilla and spices. Rose states,"this was dropped off about an hour ago with a note saying it was your four o'clock appointment!"
You open the packet with some apprehension to find a letter writen on beautiful stationary and another piece of paper. You read that letter without uttering a single word. Rose jumps up to read the letter over your shoulder. This is what you both see and read.
Dear Esteemed Builder,

You quickly grab the other piece of paper and quickly scan over the requirements. The job was very feasible and it would be nice to do something so meaningful this time of year. Rose asks with a sniff,"are we doing this job?" You reply, "yes, we definitely are!" Rose sniffs even harder as she heads for the door and states," I will start the paperwork!"

Optional Challenge:I did the uploaded lot as a regular Sunset Valley Build. I did the Christmas part of the challenge in a winter Sunset Valley world that was completed by Jadedcat. I intended to do the upload part of the challenge without CC but turns out I used a pattern from a Tiki Set. (the upload says I used a Tiki couch and table but I didn't) The upload also says I used the Outdoor Living SP but I have not found the item in the build. I created the Ash family but I am unable to upload the household. Ash family - http://www.thesims3.com/mypage/Jaylf/mystudio
