Sul Sul! My idea for this thread is to have a dedicated space to document what is happening in my game surrounding my favorite sim family - the Holdens! It’s like a hub for all things Holden family...

Holden Update 06
Spring | Week 1 - Part II: Foolery & Flowers
Weekend Highlights
Friday - Break out the hand buzzers, it’s Fool’s Day! The Holdens have a couple of Fool’s Day traditions 1) The day must start off with silly gummy bear pancakes, and 2) The whole family must wear paper bags on their heads to join in on the day’s silly spirit. Fool’s Day is Keaton’s favorite holiday because he can pull all the pranks he wants without getting in trouble, it’s part of the celebration!

The Holdens went out to Brindleton Bay and spent the day at the PlayBarn so the kids could celebrate with their friends, got ice cream at the Bayside Shopping Center, and finished off the night with fireworks at the pier!

Saturday - Keaton had a Winner’s Circle meeting. The Winner's Circle coach and his assistant happened to be at a conference for youth sports in Evergreen Harbor, so instead of holding practice at its usual location (usually school or the PlayBarn), it was held at the Evergreen Harbor Community Center. The community center is a known spot for homeless sims to congregate and get their needs filled up.

Since Keaton had to go to the meeting, the entire family tagged along and made a day out of it. Wade and Darla spent the day helping pick up trash to make the area a little cleaner while Dallas played with some of the other kids on the monkey bars. Dallas saw a sim pitch a tent and go in it to sleep. She was confused and asked her dad why they were camping at the community center, so Wade sat her down to explain to her that sims don’t all have equal experiences and the importance of giving back to the community. That’s when she truly understood the cause of No Sim Left Behind.

Sunday - Wake up, wake up, the Flower Festival is in town! The Holdens woke up early, got dressed up and attended the Flower Festival ceremony. Once the ceremony ended, they threw a small get together with the grandparents to eat brunch and spend some quality time together. The kids hunted for eggs all around the yard as the adults had drinks and enjoyed the sunny weather. The day eventually ended as the sun set, and it was time to say goodbye to the grandparents. Just before they left, Mae told Darla that they just recently got chickens, Bonnie and Clyde, and they should come over soon to see them. Darla immediately added those plans to the summer calendar - which is quickly filling up!
~ Happy Flower Festival from the Holdens! ~
