Hello and thank you for taking the time to read my thread :smiley: (I have now completed this challenge - dated 19th November 2017)I won't post a long introduction but give you a brief run down, I (Narrator of the story) had already created my characters before I found the 50 foal challenge. Testing how to play sims 3 after being a sim 2 player for a long time, to be honest, I had created Maxx as the main character (my sim self) & her Poppy (who is basically only here until she is old enough for him to um…. Move on in his life ). I wanted to start off as a teen, I had already built my house etc before I found the challenge.As it was my third attempt in character and world creation I decided to alter some events to suit the challenge, rather than start from scratch again, so that I could join the crew who are participating. However I am following through now with the rules, for the breeding etc.- Rules can be seen here : forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/770712/official-rules-50-foals-challenge-sims3/p4I also have a blog site for the Mystique FamilyI created a website for this challenge and future Sim challenges.

CHAPTER 4
Part One – Honey moon, Egypt & the horses.

Steve knew Maxx had huge decisions to make. So as a treat they set off to Egypt for their honeymoon, Maxx never had a holiday and he knew it would help her clear her head, and his too.

They didn’t waste time in Egypt, even tho they had challenges to do, both decided to rock some tents before they would go sight see.

Romance was truly in the air for these two. The Sphinx really brought the love out of them.

Maxx loving photography always making sure she gets selfies she wanted one with her sweetheart for their bedroom wall.

For such a beautiful night they decided to watch the stars before they would enter the tomb.

Together they worked so well as a team and managed to work out the riddles the tomb had.

Slowly they were getting through the tomb and collecting variety of gems and collectables. It was a long night but they got through the tomb and set back for their camp.

Like any honeymoon they were at it again, romance was truly in the air.

They had other quests to get through so continued on with that until it was time to go home soon.

Maxx found a Falcon which she was allowed to bring home. She thought he would be a nice addition to their menagerie of animals.

Meanwhile Steve tried snake charming… although that didn’t go very well just yet.

Once they got home Maxx put falcon on his new tree and spent some time teaching him and playing with him. Allowing herself time to think about things at home.

Maxx decided to spend more time with Lucifer, playing and walking him and on occasions be stopped for an autograph. She had so much on her mind the horses had passed away while they were in Egypt. And coming back home she had so much to work out to get herself back on track for the 50 foal challenge contest, and life in general.

Time went on and the day finally came for Maxx to have her baby now. She was off to hospital and was in for a huge surprise. {so was I to be honest}

Maxx had triplets. Nikki, Ethan and Brooke. She had a limousine pick her up to take her home as she had a big baggage to bring home.

******************************************************************************

While Maxx had been in hospital giving birth to triplets. Steve took upon making big changes for them, he knew it was time to move on, he knew with such a big family at once this place was not fit to keep them here. And with the horses all now gone it was easier for Maxx to come home to a new home.
Steve had already set out and got them a new place. Thanks to Glenkarri for the fantastic build, in fact the perfect build for this family, he purchased Arrowhead Stables a beautiful 4 bedroom cottage fit with 6 stables so there was plenty room for horses. Maxx had a nice new home to come home too. Steve naturally packed up all the memorabilia and trophies, but with so much bad luck happening at the old ranch he wanted a new life for his growing family. As they had a fair amount of money now, he also purchased land and had a private training ground to build on it, for their future horses to train on.

Lucifer takes time to inspect the property in all corners but he loves the ducky filled water jump. Those ducks looks so inviting for toys.

The triplets are enjoying their first birthdays at the new house. With the family growing up slowly it’s time to think about getting some horses again.

Maxx takes to teaching Brooke how to walk.

Steve begins to teach Nikki how to walk and meanwhile Lucifer enjoys watching them, waiting for his turn for some attention.

Lucifer takes to Ethan and begins to play with him.

While Steve takes time to play with Ethan and teach him to walk and talk.

Maxx takes time to bath her bff Lucifer. And spending some time with him.

Maxx and Lucifer spend some time outside, for some loving and attention.

Steve had a surprise for Maxx but waited until all the kids were in bed. He had seen a beautiful baby available from ElijahsBabyGurl9 who had a beautiful foal from Spirit and Rain. Maxx walked outside to find the cutest littlest foal in her front yard. She named her Saffron.

Maxx being Maxx and a huge softie and lover of animals, felt so bad that this little baby was away from it’s mother.

It wasn’t long before Maxx and Saffron became best friends. Maxx spent time teaching Saffron and grooming her. She was melting that this cutie was all hers and going to grow into a stunning horse.

When Maxx finished duties with the triplets, she spent all her time playing and caring for Saffron. She wanted Saffron to feel the love and settle in at home.

Saffron Chose Maxx as her Bff in a quick short time, Saffron brought so much love and joy back into Maxx’s life. Life was starting to look wonderful again at the Mystique’s New Ranch.

Even the wildlife came to bring some luck and enjoy on the positive happy mood the home is now having.

Meanwhile Steve went and picked up a beautiful Mare called Chivas Regal that was for sale and brought her home so that Saffron wouldn’t be alone, now that they had two mares again slowly they could get back into breeding foals for the 50 foal challenge.

The girls spent a long time talking and playing. Chivas Regal is a brave mare she keeps looking out for Saffron and making sure she is safe. Saffron loves Chivas, they became best friends in no time.

While Chivas and Saffron continue their friendship and time together, Steve took to time to look to buy a nice stallion for the girls and especially once Saffron grows up.

Birthday time for the twins {childhood is a breeze in this family, it seems when they are kids it’s everyday a birthday and with so many children, even I'm getting exhausted watching them lol}

This was the last morning they would spend together.

The triplets were enrolled into boarding school and were leaving to study for a short time.

Ethan was heading off to Smuggsworth Prep School to extend his medical career.

Brooke was off to Fort Military to gain more skills but was eager to be back home with the horses.

Nikki was heading to Dribble Spots to get her athletic career up to top notch.

Maxx watched as her 3 babies left for a short time, knowing they would be back, it is still a difficult time saying goodbye, she knows they will grow up once they get back.

Maxx spending some time with Charlie, bonding and showing kindness as she does to all the animals.

Steve took Pepper through the ring of fire only to get caught in flames himself.

Saffron was on her way to let him know she was about to give birth too.

Saffron delivers a beautiful filly which is named domino.

Steve missed out on seeing the birth as he was too busy running to the neighbours to jump in their pool to extinguish the fire.

Domino looks around to familiarise herself with her new home.

Steve continues to train Velvet. Tonight Velvet get sold and they get $11,798 for her She has level 9 in jumping and level 10 in racing.

Maxx works Pepper also as a final farewell. Pepper is jumping level 9 and racing lvl 5 she is sold for $9,060.

Brooke had experienced her first loss in life and was struggling with a lot of difficulty to do anything but cry.

Maxx went to console Domino who felt her mother’s death the hardest. Domino was close with her mother and being pregnant and feeling the loss, wasn’t helping the mood today. It did bring the family closer together, non the less but still a very sad day.

Brandon and unicorn came over to visit, Brandon tried to cheer Brooke up they best way he knew how. He was hurting seeing his girlfriend so hurt.

With every bad moment in life, always an unexpected one comes also. Chivas Regal decided to give birth to a little filly, Misty Fox she has been named.

Even in this difficult mourning period a little joy finds the ranch. Maxx naturally being torn and sad, comes to congratulate Chivas. However the mood is still very low.

Misty fox decides to look around her new home confused as to everyone’s sad mood, poor baby.

Steve still finds the loss very becoming and silently mourns the loss of his best friend.

Brandon decides to cheer Brooke up…. And proposes to her.

Although he knows it’s not the best timing Brooke doesn’t hesitate and marry’s Brandon. Brandon and Unicorn have now joined the Mystique family.

With all the sadness at the ranch, no one can actually enjoy the happy moments, Maxx decides to take unicorn for a ride. This is her first experience ever riding a unicorn this moment in time becomes a very precious bonding moment for both unicorn and Maxx.

Brandon does all her can to cheer up his new wife.

So a pillow fight is on for some frolicking fun.

Then some cute selfie time.

Brooke decides to take Domino for a ride (and then this happened I have no idea what actually happened here… it was bizarre).

While Brooke went off for a ride, Brandon heard and saw some strange lights….

And there out of no where… a ufo popped up in front of his eyes.

Before he could escape he was zipped up and taken away.

Domino returned home to give birth to a little filly, she was named Gypsy Rose.

With all this commotion no one actually noticed Brandon was missing.

Before long he was returned home.

Brandon confused and unsure what had happened… not having a chance to ask the Alien being.

She was gone as quickly as a blink of an eye.

Gypsy Rose like her grandmother loves to roll around.

Brandon not much of a horse man but an animal lover decides to try his hand with the horses. Chivas is happy to be groomed and cared for; she is a great started horse for any sim to learn on.

Brooke decides to take unicorn out for a ride and experiences her first magical feeling of teleportation.

She and Unicorn train this evening to build up his skills.

Tonight Misty fox has her birthday.

{YIKES I got this glitch and panicked I thought not again…. I did not want to lose the horses again… but phew lucky it was just a graphical thing and it fixed itself up}

After the unexplained experience Brandon had, he decided to try to learn to ride. Chivas was happy to have someone on her back.

Steve decided to take Misty fox for a ride and break her in. {yay she got her coat colour back}

She was a racer this little lady. She was born with racing level 8 so Steve worked on her skills to master it as she would quickly excel in it.

Brooke decided to enter her first competition with unicorn and see her luck.

Maxx (who has no shame in her underwear) competed Morgan in some competitions. Came first in both advanced comps.

Brandon slowly moving up in his riding skills, he has now got to a trot but he still is a long way off to being a horseman.

Brooke and unicorn had won one race and placed 3rd in the second, non the less they just enjoyed the night riding around the country side.

Steve continues to train Misty Fox tonight.

After the competitions Maxx and Morgan went for a short ride before it was bed time as everyone was getting really exhausted tonight.

Upon returning home, there was an eerie sound and a light on in the bedroom which never is usually used unless Brooke is in there….

{Actually I got a little spooked as the player, I saw this light on in the room as I was getting my sims to clean their horses before bed time. And when I came to see who was in the room… this is what I found, boy did I burst into tears…. My hubby thinks I'm nuts…. Crying over sims, but it was such an emotional and beautiful moment…} Lucifer had come home to his favorite spot….

Lucifer heard Maxx and as always he goes to her calls.

As always they gave each others hugs… Maxx couldn’t believe he had come to visit his family.

Maxx talked and played with Lucifer’s spirit. She missed her bff and was blessed he was here to see them.

Brooke couldn’t believe her eyes, she witnessed the spirit of Lucifer.

Despite how tired Maxx was she played with her bff. {I had to make all happy motives here otherwise they would of collapsed} Enjoying his presence while it lasted.

And then he was gone…. Leaving such emptiness in the air once again.
