Okay I was going to break this up into the rest of Chapter 17 and then the rest be Chapter 18...but I think I will just give it all to you now as the rest of Chapter 17... you can for letting me know that having it all at once was a good idea...hehe.
**Please excuse if a few of the sims are in different clothes than they were at the end of the last part due to Season's issues.. Thank you
Chapter 17
*part twoSo when we left the Alabasters two children had showed up at the door looking for Lucius claiming he was their father. Well after one look at them Lucius knew there could be no denying they were his as they looked so much like him.
He knew exactly who their mother was (so don't go thinking too badly of him
)
Lucius quickly explains to Lucy that it was about 11 years ago, he was away on a conference in a town called Veronaville .... he had been missing her (Lucy) and there was this other business woman there at the bar and well one thing lead to another... they had both had too much to drink.
But he never knew it resulted in anything... the woman never told him, if he had know he would have taken them in or sent her money or something!
Lucy forgives him, I mean what can you do... it was so long ago... and she knew it had never happened before, and they were his kids and their mother was dead now after all.
Lucius finally takes a good look at the two children he never knew he had
And welcomes them to the family.
Random Pic!
It turned fall..hehe... and look at them toddlers learn!
And just as my sims were headed to bed i saw something falling off the tree in the front yard...... Cool! the first leaf of fall!
*sorry for the crappy random pic
On with the family
The next day just about every body in the house had the day off... great
a full house to look after.
Delaney starts to teach Lisette to walk.
Grandma Lucy thinks to help and teach Lovey to walk.
Lucius is getting on pretty well with his new kids.
A bit later Lucius plays on the piano and Damian jumps on the couch to the music.
So this lady comes to my house... going on.. and on about some garden club or something or other... couldn't be bothered and Lucius tells her to go away.
But the lady got Lucius to thinking that maybe a garden might be a fun thing to have.. so he sets out to planting some tomatoes.
It takes him so long to plant the little plot that it starts to rain and i think hail (not sure if there is hail in Seasons) and some of the first plants have already popped up..lol
Damian is back in side thinking that's he maybe should take up the piano.
The whole family has been really great about accepting Damian and Delilah..
Lovey had been napping and was ready to come down stairs with the rest of the family... she had been crying to for the longest time.. so I sent Lucy.. and she kept *not* bringing her.. so finally the last time i went upstairs... just in time to see Lucy grow to an elder! I totally missed the warning.
Poor Lovey still wanting to go down stairs
Here is Lucy after a little granny make over
Nate make burgers for dinner (in his Captain Hero suit again)
Lucius tells Delilah how sorry he was not there for them and their mother but he had no idea they had even been born.
Damian tells him it's okay cause they grew up pretty well with out him.
next to the table Lisette and Stitch check each other out...hehe
Damian talks to his sis Delilah about the ladybug house out back (it is so nice having kids in the house that get along with each other :phew: )
Baby on the move... Yo!! Some one BABY... ON... THE.. MOVE!!
*please excuse the fact that one of the doggies has gone to the bath room on the floor :/ They were all taken for a walk as soon as the family was done eating.
Just as i feared... she was headed straight for the dogie dish in the kitchen.... but luckily Nate finished his dinner and was able to catch her in time.
Meanwhile there is a mad and stinky baby upstairs
Nate also got the duty of taking care of Lovey
Random Pic...
Nate congratulates Delaney..... on being the love of his live
Feeling a little high on yourself there Nate?
I repeat... Soo nice to have kids that get along and *play* together rather than fight with each other.
Lucy shows that even though she has gotten some gray hair she still knows how to get down!
Random Pic!
I love when the kids chew on this toy stick thingy
The next day Delaney is the only one with the day off so she gets stuck tending the garden for Lucius.
And while I was out doing that i heard this noise... like a ghost floating around, but wait :scratchchin: I have no ghosts! Then I heard all the dogs start to howl and looked over and Bella's pic has disappeared! NOOOOOOOO!!!!! :uvula:
*sighs* But yes.. I go in side and sure enough there is ol' Grimy
Bella is surrounded by bright light and catches that final stick to heaven..
Awww Poor Bernard howling for his lost love
That's all folks... stay tuned to see what happens next time :waves:
