Evergreen Harbor: Update 7
My last update left off with the family losing Aiyden, and Silas becoming a teenager that same day. Aiyden chose the worst possible time to die lol because the very next day it was Christmas. It's safe to say none of the Greene's were in the holiday spirit.

But Iris did her best to give the kids a great Christmas.

By dinner time they were feeling better, but Iris couldn't be cheered up no matter how hard Silas tried.

She smiled politely when the kids gave her their gift, but then she went to lay down early. Her grief really exhausted her.

Silas was excited when he opened a basketball hoop from his Mom.

And little Fawn got another doctor doctor kit, this one came with a doll.

Santa showed up later that night and left even more presents for the kids.

Silas was the only one still awake and therefore the only one to actually see Santa. He was pretty happy about it.

The next day Iris broke the news about Aiyden to Uncle Knox. He was really upset.

Knox spent the day with her, and eventually was able to cheer her up a bit.

With everything going on I forgot that Iris was about to become an elder. She aged up while she was a work and became sad once again. :neutral: then she nearly got struck by lightning on her 1st day as an elder. This family is stressing me out lol

I wasn't thrilled with how Silas aged up but he's currently my favorite of the Greene's to play with. I can picture him being a pro athlete, but for whatever reason he sees himself as a chef :lol: Thanks trait randomizer.

Cooking skill is always a must have for my sims, so I figure he'll be able to knock his aspiration out pretty fast. That is if I choose him to be heir.

I jumped back into my game after Aiyden's accident and was excited to age Fawn up. But she still had 6 days left and still needed to complete her aspiration. So I spent some time doing that.

Thankfully with her Mom's help she was able to knock her aspiration out.

Then finally Fawn was aging up! (I don't know what Silas was doing lol)

She rolled the clumsy trait, like her Mom, so I thought that was pretty cool. And she was randomized the Soul Mate aspiration, which I can work with.

Annnnnd she looks like this

Now I don't hate how she looks, but I am a little bummed. I had hoped for more. In game she's not nearly as pretty :bawling: She takes after her Dad the most, with the obvious exception of her hair and skintone. Besides that I see all Aiyden.

Here's her outfit tour. I don't like styling teens. It bothers me so much that there's nothing to distinguish them from adults, and no matter how hard I try to make their outfits look youthful they still look 25 at the youngest :confused:

I forgot to post Silas' on his birthday post, so here's that too.

Fawn is your typical teenager, and is glued to her phone 24/7 since aging up.

Her friend Zach aged up a few days before her and has been begging to come over lol but she always told him no cause she was finishing up her aspiration. He was really glad when she invited him over. I think he aged up pretty cute.

And so does Fawn :wink: She's going to have no trouble finding love, but I want her to play the field a bit lol donation boyfriends wanted!
https://i.imgur.com/cPl045v.png
The girl I had in mind for Silas aged up waaaaaaaay before he will, and immediately got married.
https://i.imgur.com/e3zyJGK.png
I suspect that's the reason for this mood swing :lol:

And here's one last pic of Knox and Iris being BFF's because...

The next day tragedy struck the Greene household yet again. And only a few feet away from where Aiyden was eaten!

Iris was at work and the kids were at school, but the maid was there... at least he didn't die alone? :cry:
https://i.imgur.com/m838MoB.png
It makes me so sad thinking he knew his time was up and he wanted to come see Iris one last time :bawling: But his dying on my lot meant that I at least got to keep his tombstone.
https://i.imgur.com/3vYMnSv.png
She placed his urn next to her husbands. Poor thing had just gotten over his death, then her best friend up and dies at her front door. :grimace:

Iris didn't know who to turn to, but Silas was there :blush:
https://i.imgur.com/26CoKCn.png
My bias towards him is shifting back :heart:
https://i.imgur.com/6q66LCR.png
Iris has since cheered up. I'll leave you with this pic of her helping Fawn with her homework, which has become part of their daily routine.

And question for everyone. Has it snowed in anyone's Evergreen Harbor?? My Greene's just entered Spring again and there was no snow all Winter long, only rain. Just curious. Happy Simming!
