    @IllusoryThrall - Oof! Aiyden's temper is going to get him in trouble one day. I kind of love the idea of Aiyden and Iris starting off as "friends" its definitely going to take work to build any sort of relationship. Hopefully, they can start to see eye to eye so that they can turn things around for Port Promise.

    @IllusoryThrall I like how they bicker and their food is bad. Things have to only get better from here. Right? :smile:

    @OJenn I like the picture of Jade's reflection in the mirror while she is practicing debate skills. She's pretty. Flash is adorable! I want to hug that dog. Have you chosen an heir?






    From the news desk of Mionax we bring a new chapter in the lives of the Greene family... The debut of Mariam!



    Mariam is still a teen but being a loner in a house that is jam packed with siblings and parents was too much for her. With the generous help of her oldest brother, the firstborn of the family, Ashton, they moved out to a small lot of their own. Ashton vowed to care for her until she was on her feet and old enough legally to take things into her own hands.

    The relief of this peace and quiet was doing her a world of good. The stress seemed to melt away with each passing day. Especially when Ashton was at his workplace. She took after her mom a bit in that she enjoyed her tiny greenhouse. She planted her first two spinach plants and it was very nice. She wanted to plant the pomegranate and grow fruit trees in the greenhouse too but they wouldn't fit. She'll have to wait until the ground thaws in the spring before they can go in the ground.

    Even with having the loner trait, she was still a teenager and wanted to adventure out to the town. The first night, late afternoon really, Ashton allowed it as a gift of freedom, though he was nervous for his baby sister the entire time. Mariam was thrilled and enjoyed her simple dinner and then got to play the piano near the upstairs bar.

    https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/735710928334487603/743654747688534107/08-13-20_1-23-53_AM.png


    Playing the piano she would never forget. She loved music and making some, no matter the quality of it, moved her very much.

    The next night was a friday night. After homework was finished she wanted to go out again. To the festival. Ashton rang up their dad and Aiyden, at a discreet distance, watched over the safety of his youngest at the Spice festival. She had a blast. A blast of burning hotness that is. She was not used to eating spicy foods.

    She tried the bubble blower and took it like a champ.

    She met a couple celebrities at the festival and they both agreed to give her an autograph.

    Then she met an exotic-looking man painting a ground mural and he let her help. She took his photo to share with her brother when she got home.

    Then when the festival was an hour from closing time at 1am in the morning, she snuck across the street for a little solo karaoke. She wasn't very good at it but she loved it anyway.

    The next day was Saturday and she got to sleep in none the wiser that her loving family was keeping her safe and well.

    @JordanNicoleJJ Yes! Let's definitely talk about gene pools! I'm fond of Sawyer too. Honestly, I'm torn...you'll see. I'm so glad you said you were going to steal Hailey's outfit! Now I can steal outfits without remorse! <3 hehe I laughed too about Lia actually ending up with a fox. I couldn't resist though. I have so many fox in my hard this year and I just want to hug them! So I'll let LIa hug this one instead. Darn though I keep trying to get a big dog for a sim and I keep ending up with little ones like I have in real life!!

    Oh somehow I missed that your BF was sick. I hope you guys are ok and stay safe! Keep us posted on how he does :)

    @Francisca464 Oh I will totally take Fawn! I love your sims. Brad was like my favorite gene pool mate from the optional one I used in Windenburg. Lia is actually a descendant of his! Also I missed one of my townies when I was taking screenshots of them! You might recognize this couple.
    https://puu.sh/GhIZU.PNG

    Actually I do want Hailey in spite of Jay but Heath and Lia are my founders so she's not eligible as heir. When I said I wanted to adopt a dog, one of the options was a fox so I had him come over :)

    Ahhh! An update! I am happy. Aww poor Iris, but look at all that smog! Not another cow plant! You guys are killing me with the cow plants! Please keep Aidyn away!! Haha Lia has had a few altercations with fabricator too but I love how you captured it! Oh no Iris, please don't do that with the food :/ Oh my gosh! Your prank call that was so creepy!! I hadn't seen that one before!!

    @Mionax I voted in your poll, I can't wait to see who you pick!!

    @Wentcrazy Hooray! An update! I love what you did with the founders! They look great. I love the outfits.

    @IllusoryThrall Ahhh your son turned 21 :) What a fun birthday. My daughter did that last year :)

    Rebuild Evergreen Harbor: Gen 2

    Aiyden and Iris gave Haven his inheritance early, so he and Suri could buy a house and move in together. They agreed on a two-story, 3 bedroom, 2 1/2 bathroom modern home in the middle of Port Promise with a beautiful view of the harbor. (Floorplan A)
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/4-2.png

    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/5-2.png

    They couldn't afford much furniture after buying the house itself, which Suri wasn't very happy about, but Haven promised they'd make it work. Money would be tight, but between all of the university grants and scholarships he would get each semester and working at a local daycare on the weekends, they would at least be able to pay the bills.
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/6-2.png

    Suri started doing freelance work to help supplement their income and speed along the furnishing process. She had a great work ethic and sometimes knocked out two or three gigs in one day! Her parents were obviously missing her though, as they kept calling to ask if she was ever going to visit. She had to turn down several invites, but they seemed to understand.
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/7-2.png

    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/8-2.png

    It's about time I introduce Suri properly, seeing as she's definitely going to be part of this challenge. I was pleasantly surprised to discover she also has the Successful Lineage aspiration. I think it's great that she and Haven are both family sims with similar goals for the future :smile: Her traits are Ambitious, Cheerful, and Music Lover. I chose the Freelance Writer career, so she can work at her own pace (which is "grind mode" right now but will slow down once they have kids).
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/1-3.png

    No introduction would be complete without an outfit tour! I love love love her style, and it's so different from my usual style. I found those tall socks under the "leggings" category (why??), and they're my new fav tall socks. These aren't all of her outfits, just my favs: everyday (3), formal (1), athletic (1), sleep (1), party (2), hot (2), cold (2).
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/2-2.png

    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/3-2.png

    New Year's Eve sneaked up on them as they were busy settling into their new life. Thankfully Suri's mom reminded them by inviting them to a college party. I just love how Suri's MOM is living the college life better than Haven :lol: Anyway, Suri figured it would be a good way to get her parents off her back about visiting for awhile.
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/9-2.png

    Her mom didn't stay long. She probably heard of a better party somewhere else :tongue: Haven and Suri got a quiet corner table, ordered some fancy cocktails, and talked about school, work, and home improvements.
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/10-2.png

    They made their resolutions for the new year -- Haven wants to start working out and living healthier in general, while Suri wants to focus more on her career before they start a family.
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/13-2.png

    Haven participated in the countdown to midnight, but those cocktails ran through Suri and she had to awkwardly escape to the bathroom :lol: (Also, this is the moment I knew I needed the NPCC mod. I had just spent hours in CAS giving all of the randomly generated townies make-overs, then the game decided to spawn all of these fashion nightmares just for this bar/event :expressionless: )
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/11-2.png

    Haven sneaked in a quick New Year's kiss before they left :blush:
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/12-2.png

    Spring brought lots and lots of rain, but that didn't stop Haven from staying true to his resolution to get fit. Jogging in the rain just means you don't have to take a shower after, right? :tongue:
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/15-2.png

    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/16-2.png

    The nights were still cold, and they took full advantage of the hot tub (literally the most expensive, unnecessary purchase ever lol). They never "messed around" as teens, and they were each other's first and only relationship, so... Let's just say, they're enjoying the "learning process" :wink:
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/20-2.png

    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/19-2.png

    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/18-2.png

    At this point I installed NPCC and MCCC, and let them do their thing. Well let me tell you, MCCC did a number on Suri's family :grimace: Her mom and dad got a divorce and immediately married other people. I'm pretty sure her mom had an affair, because she married a young college kid from robotics club. On top of all that, her younger brother and sister (both recently aged up into young adults) are already having babies!! So, thanks for that, MCCC :flushed:
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/24-2.png

    That weekend, Suri went to Haven's robotics contest to see how her mom was holding up. Uh, yeah, she was totally having an affair...she's doing just fine :tongue: :lol: Also, don't mind Haven casually crashing an RC helicopter right into them :sweat_smile:
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/21-2.png

    "Oooo, that's gotta hurt... My bad!"
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/22-2.png

    Haven didn't win the contest, but the day wasn't a total loss. Suri (and I) discovered a new type of robot -- a party bot! Haven's definitely gonna have to make one of these for his music-loving future wife :smiley:
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/23-2.png

    I needed more motivation to get my sims out of the house, so I made my own community space for Port Promise. Here's the marketplace version, complete with food stalls, lots of vendor tables, and random activities (just more things to do) like karaoke and yoga.
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/25-2.png

    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/26-2.png

    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/27-2.png

    Suri invited her mom and sister out to try the new rooftop karaoke. They had a blast! They were pretty good too, even had a couple fans!
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/28-2.png

    Her sister wasn't showing though, which was disappointing. I was hoping to get some bump love pics :tongue: Oh well, they still had fun. :smile:
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/29-2.png

    Suri hung around after they left and made a new friend. "Hi! I love your sweater, where did you get it?"
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/30-2.png

    I love how full this lot was -- there were vendors at almost every stall, and most of them matched what I had in mind for the stall, like the massage/yoga area table being for selling candles! Also how cute is that candle vendor?? :love: Is it too late to change my mind about Suri... :sweat_smile: :lol:
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/31-2.png

    There was even a servo giving massages! Servos are the best :heart:
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/32-2.png

    When Suri got home, Haven was stressing about completing his 'get fit' resolution in time. He only had a couple days left, and jogging wasn't cutting it. A new gym just opened in Willow Creek, so they went to check it out. Guys, GUYS -- Willow Creek was smoggy!
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/34-2.png

    Haven and Suri didn't know what to think. They'd never seen smog like this before, they'd only heard the stories Aiyden and Iris told them about when they first moved to Evergreen Harbor.
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/35-2.png

    It certainly didn't help their workout. Every breath felt strained -- even moreso than just normal out-of-shape heavy breathing.
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/36-2.png

    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/37-2.png

    Suri just couldn't handle it. She spent the rest of the night at the juice bar, sipping water to hold back the coughing fits. She made another friend though! @debjameswhite I put Lia and Heath in my game and gave them makeovers -- I love them so much! :smiley:
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/38-1.png

    Meanwhile, the apocalypse was kicking off outside :flushed: That's one ominous sky...
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/40-2.png

    The next round of MCCC pregnancies included Eden!! I was so excited at first, because the guy looked like total husband material...but uh, he already is a husband...he's married to another woman. So that's awkward.
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/41-2.png

    Eden announced her pregnancy in person, and Haven & Suri were so excited for her! They can't wait to meet their little niece or nephew :blush:
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/42-2.png

    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/44-2.png

    Other than that, they have just been going through the motions with school & work. Haven worked his butt off to do his homework for every class, finish all of his final papers and presentations early, and study for his finals, maintaining an A+ in every single class so far. Suri wrote a LOT and already maxed her writing skill. She mostly takes jobs to write children's books and tutor students or review students' school papers.
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/45-1.png

    Her latest book was inspired by their recent trip to Willow Creek. Yes, that's a pun on both Puff the Magic Dragon and Smaug from the Hobbit :lol:
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/46-2.png

    She also got more involved in the community's green future. She felt like it was a bit redundant to have Green Gardening AND Green Initiatives, so she spent a few days gaining support from the community to repeal the gardening NAP. (I have no idea what to replace it with...maybe Eco-Friendly Appliances since they're both pretty handy and still "building/upgrading" their home?)
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/47-2.png

    All in all though, Evergreen Harbor is still a pretty great place to live (especially compared to Willow Creek right now :grimace: ).
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/48-2.png

    Love Day happened to fall the day before Haven's graduation. He was pretty exhausted from finals, but he chugged a sleep replacement potion and made a reservation for dinner at the fanciest restaurant in Magnolia Promenade. (Thankfully it wasn't all smoggy like it's neighbor Willow Creek.)
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/49-2.png

    It was still pretty gloomy outside, but they forgot about the rain as soon as they were seated. They got the best table in the house -- in perfect view of the special entertainment for the evening. Haven couldn't take his eyes off of his beautiful fiance though :wink:
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/50-2.png

    Suri was pleasantly surprised when her sister came to take their order! They chatted for a bit, and Suri learned that she and their brother's wife both gave birth to baby boys! She's now the proud aunt to two baby nephews :smile:
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/51-2.png

    They ordered the chef special -- a nice red wine and a Love Day-themed experimental dish. Everything was just perfect -- the romantic atmosphere, the delicious food, and the loving company :heart:
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/52-2.png

    When they got come, Suri told Haven to wait in the bedroom, because she had a "surprise" for him. He just sat on the bed and thought about how lucky he was: he had an amazing fiance, a destination wedding just around the corner, a graduation in the morning, and several job interviews for various robotics companies... In that moment, his life was perfect.
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/54-1.png

    ...then, somehow, Suri made it even better than perfect :wink:
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/55-1.png

    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/56-1.png

    The next morning, they woke up bright and early for Haven's graduation! He worked SO hard for it, he deserves to look this proud.
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/57-1.png

    Suri sneaked in a quick congratulations kiss right before the ceremony :blush:
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/58.png

    He did it!! He graduated with a distinguished physics degree with honors in just 3 semesters! :smiley: I'm seriously so proud of this sim, it's like he's my own child lol.
    https://rebuildwillowcreekrotation.files.wordpress.com/2020/08/59.png

    I'll leave you with this -- Haven got a text during the grad ceremony saying that Eden gave birth to a baby girl! :heart:

    I can't leave this thread alone for a few days that I come back to dozens of notifications :joy: I love it <3
    I'm also sorry if it sounds like I'm rushing to catch up with all I've missed, but I'm super busy with my family this weekend and barely got time to log here. I also don't think I'll be able to post till Monday, tho I have a lot of pics to share. I want my vacation time back :joy: :bawling:

    @Francisca464 I'm so jealous of your smog :joy: mind to share it for a bit? I just love all the smog pictures you posted, it really makes it feel like your Greenes were up for a challenge :bawling: the pics of Aiyden getting beaten up by the fabricator are the best! :joy: it happened in my game too and it was so hilarious (tho I hate how it stops fabricating the things you were working on and you're always forced to scrap them)... dang, that phone call was so creepy! What mod is that?? Is it Slice of Life? I love seeing I'm also not the only one editing the pics with Gimp! <3 THAT NAKED BOOTY PIC THO :smirk: I appreciated it quite a lot :joy: :smirk: :joy: aaaah I like that you took the time to bring the Greenes to Willow Creek to work on Iris' aspiration, I totally didn't even bother... and now I think I'll give it a try!

    @Rhythrin omg I'm so sorry to hear you've been in a car accident :cold_sweat: I hope you're ok! I haven't had any serious accidents like that lately but I also feel like this year life's got much much harder. I hope things get better for you <3 -and speaking of brighter things: I love your Luana and Manu!! <3 they're so gorgeous. I still can't get over the secret mermaid pool. It was such a great idea! Aaaahw Meepsy! (I've had like dozens of that thingie :joy: ) tbh the scuba diving career for Luana seems to fit Evergreen Harbor so well, considered that there's the see right over there! It just dawned on me! AaaaaaaH I knew that there had to be a nooboo on the way :joy: <3 Manu better be happy about it!

    @Wentcrazy I hate risky woohoo lately :sweat_smile: for real. I LOVE your Greene makeovers, especially Iris. She looks soooooo fierce! The house also looks really nice, you did a really good job with that floor plan! Aaaah you know I love all the move in decor :mrgreen: nice boxes!

    @debjameswhite MCCC hasn't married Heath and Lia yet, but you'll see in my future updates that things happened in their household :wink:

    @Heckstress17 virtual classes go really well for students that have to take notes or stuff like that, but... kindergarten seems like something that's not suited for being done online (and I speak as a decade long babysitter, not a mother). I'm crossing my fingers for you, tho! I seriously hope that things work out smoothly with your little ones <3. I also hope you'll feel better soon <3 *sends virtual hugs from across the ocean*

    @Mionax I love the restaurant! <3 I think I'll go for a restaurant too, maybe, when I rebuild that lot. OMG on to gen 2 already!! I love Mariam, she's so pretty! The new house looks really nice! I can't wait to see it fully decorated, I'm sure you'll do such a good job with it.

    @debjameswhite thanks for working so hard for completing the Evergreen Harbor gene pool <3 :blush: aaaaaah I love the townie-tour you posted first in this update! Looks like Clover and Pablo had a single baby! <3 OMG Weston and Sawyer are such cuties! I love that they took the hair color from both parents. And Hailey is such a gorgeous sim :flushed: I always love seeing your families expand through your updates and how busy it gets when there's new kiddos to look after <3 I feel like I love the pic of Lia and Hailey "trying" yoga the best tho :joy: -I was also wondering what kind of pet you were going to get next and asdhfadh I love to see a fox in da house :bawling: so cute!

    @OJenn I want out of the twin club :joy: :joy: :joy: how do I get out???
    OMG look at little Flash :bawling: my heart is melting :bawling: I love seeing your twin teens, tho, I have to admit it. I also think they came out as such good mixes of their parents! I don't think I can say the same for mine yet...

    @IllusoryThrall can you believe that I haven't seen any sim cough for the smog, ever, in my game? :bawling: I'm so jealous of your poor environmental conditions :joy: I loved how Iris and Aiyden immediately started bickering, it feels really... realistic, to me, lol. I'm sure they'll get along sooner or later :wink: but for now I love all of their issues <3

    @JordanNicoleJJ look at you with the new house ready to go!! <3 I can't keep up with all the progress you're making :joy: that dad call tho? I've never seen it in game! Is that a mod? Suri is such a gorgeous sim, I can't even. You did such a good job with all the outfits, as you always do! The new year countdown pics warmed my heart, it's so cool seeing so many sims celebrate in game! (YES, get that NPCC mod, it saves the day!)- omg that hot tube :joy: the scandal! Just kidding, they're so adorable together. MCCC! What are you doing??? :joy: not even 2 seconds after getting installed, and it already created such drama! :joy: (is it good or bad? I'm enjoying it :grimace: ). I LOVE your community space! I love all the containers and the colors and the many activities you placed there! ... here I am without one bit of smog in my game you get to have in Willow Creek too????? Unbelievable :joy: I must be cursed or something :joy: Congrats to Haven for graduating!! (is it baby-making time yet? :mrgreen: )

    Oh my gosh! You guys don't stop! I have such high hopes for my coffee tomorrow morning. I'm so happy!! OK to pick up where I left of last night and continue with the additions since going to bed at midnight and waking up at 7!!

    @Francisca464 Oh poor Iris. I mean seriously, it's just eggs. Be nice. Awww that is cute. I see lots of kisses in their future! Hahaha! Dumpster woohoo...I just have not been able to go there yet. I know I'm missing out! I do love that final animation though. OH no, poor Aiyden he does suffer a lot being one of the main characters in so many stories! The fabricator really has it out for him...as does the cow plant. Yes, I get the inspection all the time. We have not been in compliance. I think I tend to find the most crystals in Oasis Springs but I did find some in some of the neighborhoods in Willow Creek too. Aww vow renewals are so sweet! I forgot that was a thing!! Hooray! I hope Aiyden drank that fertility potion before they had their big bang!!

    @Wentcrazy I think you did an awesome job with your first update and your story telling! You've worried for nothing! Also your house looks great! I love the landscaping and the little stone walk. The kitchen is cute but OH NO! haha no toilet??? Rude builders! I love the back of the house. @Wentcrazy this update was great! I loved it. I can't wait for more!!

    And I got more! I love that basketball hoop by the way! Awww poor Aiyden feeling overwhelmed by all the boxes. I know that feeling. Aww I love planting the garden...and she got a job. Things are good! Aww he was so sweet to cook Iris dinner. Their room looks so nice.

    @Mionax Oh congrats on closing your poll! I feel like I might need a poll too. I love my kids and it's hard to decide. We'll see though. OOO the first one to strike out into Generation 2!! You always do such a great job with your house plans! I'm always a fan of a greenhouse :) hehe for a loner she sure is getting out a lot but that's good. She needs to find her future love! Her travels were so much fun! I loved it. More please.

    @IllusoryThrall Hooray! I'm excited for your post. Poor Aiyden and then Iris being so angry. She must be nervous. Oh I like the kitchen. It's really cute! Thank goodness your home has plumbing at least! Wow, your community lot looks so good in its junkyard phase. Oh I love how you had them dive for deals. I love the new living room furniture OH gosh I also love the tension. I can't wait to see where this goes!! It was a great update :)

    @OJenn I don't know that Aiyden looks super thrilled about Jade's decision! I love Flash!! So cute!!! OH he is a good boi!!! I love him!! That seems typical. The pets always know who mama and papa are!! Oh that's interesting that Aiyden is sending the kids messages about fabricating...oh and even weirder the lady is coming into the house. Aww look at that final picture of Aiyden. I love him. Potions for Christmas!

    @JordanNicoleJJ Oh I like your new house!! hehe I love Haven looking so happy and Suri cranky in the background. Oh my heart. Dad I get you <3 I love Suri She is so pretty. Great choice! Oh look at the people! haha I was excited about them but then you called them fashion nightmares and I laughed!! Haven looks pretty good jogging in the rain. Oh but I love the hot tub pictures. Look at that happy Suri :) Haven! hehe you are cracking me up this morning. I love your community lot!! It looks so good. I love how full it was! OMG smog in Willow Creek?? No!! Oh it's so sad. OOOO I didn't recognize Lia! Marry her off to Heath before MCC separates them!! Oh you have some settings in MCC I must have disabled hehe. Poor Eden. Wow I can't believe how much greener Evergreen Harbor is than Willow Creek! Their date was so sweet and they looked so good. I love him sitting on the bed waiting. It's a great pose. AWWW I love them. Congratulations on the graduation and on Eden's nooboo!!

    @Mionax - I haven't chosen an heir yet I love both the twins so much!!

    I love Mariam's brother moved out with her, being a loner in a full house is definitely tough! Wow you did so good on the floor plan and the outside looks identical to the pictures. The greenhouse space looks like it's coming along nicely, pomegranate is one of my favorite fruits so I love that she has some in her garden. Poor Mariam doesn't seem to care for the food at the festival lol but I am glad she could get out and enjoy her time.

    @Wentcrazy - Congrats to Iris on her new job! At least some things are starting to look up for these two. I really like the fun yellow and black wallpaper Aiyden was working on when he got the call about the job. And what a way to celebrate ;)

    @JordanNicoleJJ - You are so talented, the build turned out perfect!! Haven is going to be super busy wow college and working, what a pro. I love how confident he looks at the stove there. Those little pops ups are such a nice tough, hearing from her parents makes me feel like Suri is super loved ♥ Do you want to come dress my sims? You and @Heckstress17 always do such a good job. Now you've got me nervous about having both mods in but maybe I will do some tweaking, what a whirlwind change for Suri's fam. That community lot is so nice, I love that looks like stacked shipping containers. Suri's book title and description has me cracking up over here :lol: Congrats to Eden and Haven so exciting on both fronts

    @Kiwicantdie - Aww more vacation time is always needed, sorry yours flew by! Isn't the activity in the thread just awesome♥ I am loving it as well

    @Kiwicantdie - Yeah, doing kindergarten this way is definitely not ideal. :disappointed: I mean kindergarten is all about socializing and hands on activities, and with this digital format he's missing out on SO much. At the end of the 1st semester (in 8 weeks) we have the option to change back to traditional classes. I'm really hoping things with the virus will have improved and we can send him in person. Thank you for your virtual hugs :heart: I know they traveled a long way to get here so it's appreciated :wink: Enjoy your family time this weekend! I look forward to your post on Monday. I'm gonna hold you to it :lol:

    @Wentcrazy - Aw, look at Iris and Aiyden :heart: Iris looked so optimistic about the new house and fixing up the town. While Aiyden looked like he could cry :lol: Poor guy, at least Iris was there to assure him things would be okay. Your house looks great. You should definitely be proud of yourself! I really like the backyard with the basketball hoop over the garage. So I was happy to see Aiyden playing basketball in your 2nd update :smile: omg I don't blame Aiyden for being upset with the way the movers left the house. Iris handled it though. I'm glad she was able to get a job, and starting the garden will definitely help to make their house feel more like a home. I love how Aiyden cooked Iris dinner to tell her the news about his job :heart: I really like the way you decorated their kitchen and dining room. Their bedroom looks great too, and of course it's nice to see Iris and Aiyden getting along so well :wink:

    @OJenn - Thank you :heart: I'm doing better today. That fully grown beard really suits Aiyden. He had just grown it in my game and then of course he was eaten :bawling: Jade is such a pretty sim, her glasses look really great on her. And awww Flash! I wanted to call him Bolt. He reminds me of the dog from that Disney movie with Miley Cyrus and John Travolta lol. The pool seems to be popular. Aiyden's angry swimming is the best :lol: and he is the least subtle sim lol I think the kids are gonna be fabricators whether they want to be or not. Though Jade does seem to be showing some interest. Atlas is too busy with his sick dance moves to care lol. I think that random townie may have unlocked the secret to keeping Aiyden happy! Make all the de-stress drinks! Love his cozy sweater too btw.

    @IllusoryThrall - Yessss! 1st update time! I really feel for Iris and Aiyden arriving in town and then pretty much coughing non stop. I really can't even blame Aiyden for his terrible attitude about it all :lol: I like that your Greene's are just roommates (for the time being?). They're relationship is indeed a rocky one. Especially with the added pressure of moving into a new home that neither particularly love... yet. I side with Iris a bit on thinking Aiyden's freelancing is taking a bit of the slacker approach. I think he can prove us wrong though. And I definitely see the potential of the community space being voted in as a maker space. With the new furniture Iris ordered things are looking up! I really like the walls in the kitchen. I think these two can get on the same page. I had to fight it in my game, but once you get them to really feel the love, their friendship will follow too.

    @JordanNicoleJJ - Aw, were you having a bad day too? I'm sorry :heart: I hope things are better now. I don't really want to build everything myself lol though I did definitely feel like that in the past versions of this challenge. Now I'm just too lazy... but I did find after downloading your shell that I felt like a total loser/cheater/thief :lol: I didn't wanna decorate it and show it off knowing you put the most difficult part of the work in. I want you to get all the glory. I hope that makes sense? Cause when I tell you I love what you've done with that floorplan that's an understatement. I am not looking forward to showing you guys what I've built :lol: It's a mess.

    You update was fantastic! Suri's outfit tour :love: Her style is so cute. I love those thigh high stockings. Plus she's just a really cute sim. She has a very innocent looking face. lol there were some characters in that new years party pic :lol: I hope the NPC mod treats you well. There was something therapeutic about the shots of Haven running in the rain. It also reminded me of the time his Mom was loving the rain in my game :blush: Suri's look in that first hot tub pic is so funny :joy: I may have been wrong about my innocent comments. I also 100% approve of the unnecessary spending on the hot tub. The hot tub romance interactions make the best pics. omg I totally knew Suri's Mom was having a midlife crisis. Good for her finding a younger guy at college :joy: Aiyden's face when he nearly drove the drone into them was so cute. I love him. omg look at how cute your community lot is! I need all of you guys to stop building such great lots. I don't wannnnnnnnnna build! :bawling: :bawling: :bawling: I'll feel a lot less guilty stealing a community lot then a house though lol. I like that you made the space have karaoke and actual things to do. Suri looked like she had fun with her family. The girl selling the candles is super cute! It's not too late! :lol: Smoggy Willow Creek was interesting to see. The steamboat pic was great. Too bad it makes for horrible exercising conditions. Lia looked happy enough though, she must've adapted. Eden's the other woman!? :flushed: Well... best of luck to her :lol: LOL Suri's children's book is perfectly named. I got your LOTR reference immediately. Plus your description of the book is great :lol: Anyway, their Valentine's day was perfect. Your Swan restaurant was the perfect setting :heart: and Suri made sure to take things up a notch when they got home :astonished: Haven's graduation pics look so good! I know you're proud of your little man :wink: lol!

    @Mionax - I'm happy with Mariam being the heir, she was my 2nd choice :blush: and it's also pretty cool that she's moved out with my 1st choice lol! You nailed the generation B house! I recognized it immediately. Her greenhouse space is really cool, and the perfect place for a loner like her to hide out. It makes me happy she's a gardener like her Mom :heart: It was trusting of her brother to let her out on her own, but Mariam seems like a trustworthy teen. She looked so excited to get those celebrities autographs! The man painting graffiti may not be the best influence lol but she seems to have enjoyed herself none the less. Great Update!

    @Wentcrazy I love how you are decorating their home. Grats on landing the jobs for them. I wonder if a nooboo is on the way. :) I want that kitchen. You decorate so beautifully.

    @JordanNicoleJJ Suri looks great. I like her athletic and sleepwear the most. Grats to Haven for graduating with such high honors!! Now I am tempted to put Mariam through Uni.


    All of your guys' comments mean a lot to me. ty
