ohh! I did not know the Prepared traveler reward gave them extra days. It seems the trip is always over way too soon. I would read your legacy, but I know how it can go when you feel you have to post so i understand not wanting to also  Speaking of posting a legacy (like my segway there... oh yeah i am smooth) So one night I was so busy getting everyone fed and into bed I didn't even notice that someone was missing o.O That is until i heard the sirens.  *sighs* Bay boy Jack had snuck out some time in the middle of the night and got caught. Though I might be a little biased because he is my sim, but i think it's really unfair. He got caught at 6am. There are people up and about at that time and a good number of them are kids and teens off to school. I could understand if he were caught more into the night, but when does the curfew let up O.O Kendall was mad that after all the years of service Jasper gave to the force they still picked up Jack.. unfortunately that anger was taken out on Jack and he got a lecture right there on the front lawn!  Kolleen meanwhile has been saving as much money as she could and moved out. Not too far just a few blocks over...lol. But she took the car with her  Now my simmies are with out a car.  A while later the twins have their birthday. Jepson:  and him as a young adult  And Jack   They also moved out a few day later. Pulled money together and got a little place as roommates. |

I've never had a sim out past their curfew. I see the little notification which pops up and then freak out about getting them home...don't want the police showing up! Although it would be entertaining. Kolleen meanwhile has been saving as much money as she could and moved out. Not too far just a few blocks over...lol. But she took the car with her Now my simmies are with out a car. Lol...that's quite amusing. Clearly she had enough money to move out but not enough to then buy herself a car  I was thinking about this yesterday, and I think I'm going to place my copy of the Langdon family (you put them up for download I think) in my town. So, hopefully as a result of story progression, I can marry their kiddies off to some of my Legacy children. Then I will definitely have to post pics! |

aww.. that would be nice Would like to see what my simmies get up to in yer game. They were up for download a few pages back. Not sure if the download is still good if you didn't get them before. If the link has gone dead just let me know and I'll re-upload them. I hardly ever have sims sneaking out after curfew either and the few times I have I usually freak out too and hurry to get them home, but this time i didn't see any notice O.O So it was a real shock when I heard the busted music and then sirens  *cough* you could also upload yer family and I could put them in my game if you like  Jude spends most his time playing for tips in the local park to earn extra money.  meanwhile after a life on the force Jasper is ready to retire!  He and Kendall have been dying to go traveling and now that they have all their kids grown and mostly out of the house they figure it is high time to start. So they went to Al Simhara because Jude said it was an awesome place to see. It is a good thing that they are in such good shape, because Jude forgot to mention a lot of traveling has to be done on foot because the roads are so bad.  Odd little sim fact for you... Ploice cars fit in the overhead compartment on planes o.O The few times that Jasper and Kendall could take a car it turned up to be Jasper's police car from home.. thought it was a bit funny.  Well they have a great time and instead of boring you with details here are a few pictures off Kendall's camera...      |

Before I say anything else, those Egypt pictures are ADORABLE...much better than the ones I snapped for my Sims when they went. Heh, most of them are of my legacy founder submitting to the wrath of a mummy XD Diz, I downloaded Jasper and Kendall when you first put them up for download, they're sitting in my town as I type  They've already had some kiddies thanks to story progression: the first born was little boy Rowan, and then they had twin girls Sky and Scarlet. Kendall is pregnant again, am quite excited to see what she has! I'll try and have a go at uploading my family for you! It looks a bit complicated to me actually, so it might take a while hehe. I don't want to particularly package them as they are at the moment as they are almost elders, and therefore no fun to play with Wait, I may be speaking prematurely, you'll want to see pictures of them first! Keep an eye out, I will probably make a legacy post soon! Getting back to the scheduled Langdon Legacy: I love how Jasper turned up on holiday with his police car XD Classic!! |

aww.. thanks for the compliment on the Egypt pictures I had thought to do this when i sent them on the trip, but then got so caught up in playing the tomb raider i almost forgot till I got the message that their trip was almost over and pushed and pulled them all over Egypt to take their pictures.... they were not happy with me ..keke. So glad to hear you downloaded Jasper and Kendall when i put them up before cause I have no clue where that file is now XD Aww... they had a boy and twin girls awesome. It would e really funny if the last child was a single boy. Then it would be the opposite as what I had was I had the Boy then a girl and then twin boys... not like you didn't already know that as you have been reading *duh*Ohh!! your legacy founder has had a run in with a Mummy  I was very curious to see what that entails... I have been too chicken and any time i see the hint of a mummy I run my sim out of there like crazy! So as i said a time before Jude spends a lot of his time playing for tips and he has gotten some nice sized crowds lately. I noticed the odd looking guy in the back and when i scrolled over him it said he was a tourist! HA!! When WA was introduced i hadn't even thought that we might get tourists in the normal town.. is kinda cute that little sunnyville with nothing to do gets tourist..kkeke  It's birthday time and this time it's Jude  Here is Jude as a full grown up adult... aww.. he lost his chubby cheeks. To me he's looking a lot like Jasper now where as before he looked a lot like Kendall.  Mimi is on to writing her 3rd book! The other two were best sellers, hope this one will follow that way as well. (for a little refresher.. Mimi's LTW is to be a professional writer and make $4000 a week in royalties.  As a side note.. starting in this update you will notice the house looks a little different. Jude *cough* yeah Jude decided to give the house an over haul. No outside walls were moved, but the inside rooms and lay out has been changed and updated a bit. |

"Playing tomb raider" hehehe it's like the Sims version of Lara Croft XD I can just imagine two helpless Sims being commanded all over the place by the Sim God... "Jasper, honey, what are we being made to do now?" "We have to go hug in front of the pyramids, dear." The Mummy experience was quite an event...will probably explain in more detail when I eventually post that particular part in my legacy. I don't want to give much away as it'll ruin the fun! All I will say though is that I was close to losing my legacy founder...stupid Mummy!!  WOW Jude does pull quite the crowd!! The tourist thing made me laugh when I first saw it happen, although I was also a little freaked out. My Simmie was in the garden, minding her own business, when this tourist came out of nowhere and ran through her growing plants! He was trying to get to a community lot. He needs to be taught it's rude to run through people's gardens This is random, but I love the colour combination of Kendall's pants in Jude's birthday cake pic...  Mimi's already on her third book, hey? Is it by any chance about babies? Or perhaps morning sickness? Just wondering... *strokes chin* I like the changes to the house! I built a new house for my legacy yesterday...ok I should stop talking about it and start posting it. Also, I looked into uploading my founder and her hubby for you...at the moment I'm only able to upload her on her own so I'm going to try and merge them together some how. |

All I will say though is that I was close to losing my legacy founder...stupid Mummy!! I can't wait to see. I wont ask you to give anything up I rather read about it I am very tempted to just go make a sim and see what happens with the mummy but i still chicken out. That pixel mummy scares me! *cough* I was lazy with that outfit and the color combo on thse pants is a Mazis made combo already on the pants. They are the loose capri type pants and i thin it's just the second or third pre-made choice that came with the game that I used.  skips over this yes I totally agree you should just start posting it. And don't worry if it's going to be a bunch of work you don't have to upload your founders. But i could also merge them together in my game if they have to be packaged separately... just a thought. |

Okay okay ... can't have you sulking Jude has the want to master the arts and he's worked up his guitar skills pretty well he has switched over to do a bit of painting now.  Mimi finally has been promoted enough that she has a cool work outfit  But any further job advancement has been put on hold. She was woken in the middle of the night by an odd twinge in her belly...  Kendall had gone to town to sell some excess produce she grew and was having a nice chat with a neighbor when someone walked by and sneered at her as they passed and made a rude noise. She was simply SHOCKED when she looked up and saw it was her own son Jepson!  She catch up to him and tried to have a polite conversation and find out what the deal was and to update him on his older brothers impending fatherhood. Jepson barely paid attention to her and when she brought up Jasper he started arguing with her about not wanting to hear about his older brother. He also informed her that he's cutting himself off from the family and never wanted to talk to them again  When Jepson had walked away from Kendall I caught up with him and asked why he was so mad at his family. It seems he's a little bitter that because he was not the first born that he was ignored and everything all his life had always been "Jude this" and "Jude that".  The rest of the family was pretty tore up over Jepson, but soon they didn't have time to think too much on it. A few nights later Mimi was on her way to bed when she felt another odd twinge in her belly.  And some hours later Marcellette Langdon was born  |

Ok, so I'm in a really weird mood today...so much so that I randomly found it necessary to put that in large, bold text and make it move  Hi baby Marcellette! *waves at baby* Jude's lighthouse painting (LOL I just typed panting) is really cute, I've never seen a Sim paint (poop I typed pant again, why am I thinking about pants?) that picture in game before. The last artist Sim I had painted weird mosaic-y things. YAY sheepy jammies!! Do you know what? I really want a pair of sheep PJs in real life. Do you think you can buy pictures of sheep that you can iron on to clothing?! If I found that such things existed I would have to buy myself a blue nightgown to recreate the look. "Hi, I'm Kate, and these are my real life Sims-themed sheepy jammies."Kendall had gone to town to sell some excess produce she grew and was having a nice chat with a neighbor when someone walked by and sneered at her as they passed and made a rude noise. She was simply SHOCKED when she looked up and saw it was her own son Jepson!  OMG that is shocking!! Jepson...wow. I have no words. |

You make me laugh.. in a good way I think the real life sheep jammies would be awesome and I would be so jealous and demand some for me too. And there probably are programs like that cause I have seen people make home pictures into iron-ons for pillows and things. The light house panting (*snickers*... just kidding!) painting was quite nice and Jude debated keeping it and hanging it in the house for decor, but then he saw it sold back for nearly $300 and after the remodel the family is pretty low on funds. And seriously I have no clue what Jepson's problem was. Okay yeah for story purposes i exagerated a bit of the encounter, but he DID make the rude noise (I had picture to prove) and he did start arguing with Kendall at the mention of Jude. Maybe the younger siblings were a little ignored. I forgot to mention that Mimi was also approached by Kolleen to write a biography about her growing up. o.O I thought she had an okay child hood. I mean Kolleen is still a young adult and only just started her career in the science track so she couldn't have made any discoveries yet worth writing a book about. |

Mimi has passed her young adult days and is not onto total maturity in her adulthood years.. >.>  She looks pretty much the same.. i can see a little olderness to her, but not much.  As soon as Mimi blew out the candles Jasper ran in from the other room, grabbed the cake and put it in the fridge o.O Um Jasper... i think the others were going to eat some.  I just found this totally adorable *random image*  Jasper is rethinking his idea to retire. He has a lot of ambition has been wanting to move forward, but I think his latest want is taking it a little too far. If you will remember his LTW (which he achieved was to become a super spy). Well the other day he had a want to join the criminal career track O.o  Too soon it was little Marcellette's birthday.  Here she is as a tot.. and I think she is awfully adorable She has her mothers hair and look like most of her facial features will be like Mimi, but she has Jude's eye shape and possibly his skin tone and her Grandmother Kendall's eye color.  |

Right, so when I next go to my favourite arts & crafts store, I am definitely going to search for sheepy iron-on pictures. Either that or I will have to draw my own! (heh that will be a laugh) I forgot to mention that Mimi was also approached by Kolleen to write a biography about her growing up. o.O I thought she had an okay child hood. I mean Kolleen is still a young adult and only just started her career in the science track so she couldn't have made any discoveries yet worth writing a book about. LOL I have to agree with you...I could understand if Kolleen asked this question when they were all elders, but at such a young age she hasn't really lived her life  Perhaps she wants to be one of these people who have numerous biographies. For instance the first one documents the early stages of her life, and then another later would cover the late stages. I donno, crazy Sims ;P I love Mimi's new adult look, I think she's now even cuter! Must...resist...urge...to...pinch...pixel cheeks!! I laughed at Jasper's want to join the criminal career - perhaps he wants to experience the other side of life, i.e. criminalism?! If that's even a word, I expect not, hehe...although at his age I would be a bit concerned. He needs to make the most of his days and not spend them in a jail cell! Marcellette is indeed awfully adorable! Don't think I've ever seen such an adorable little Sim girl I think she will grow up to be stunning! |

Marcellette is indeed awfully adorable! Don't think I've ever seen such an adorable little Sim girl I know, right! I keep looking at her. I usually don't think the toddlers are too cute.. I mean they are okay.. kids are ugly, but she is freaking adorable! Emb.. thanks for reading And beings there is another now reading here is an update... Everyone is taking a hand in raising Marcellette.. Jasper has taking to reading a book with her each day.  After being indoors so long one day after finishing another book Jasper was getting a little stir crazy. So he went out back with Marcellette and spied a PARK! After all these (sim) years of living in the same house and no one ever noticed the back out behind their house O.O Jasper took Marcellette over for some air in the park.  This will be random to you.. but it was fun for me. So when I set up the town for my legacy I added in a few households with back ground stories for myself just to spice things up. One was an over-weight lazy couch potato single mom with 7 kids! Well I have not seen them in all this time, but their house also backs up to the park and when Jasper and Marcey went there most the other family came into the park. This was the mom and two of the kids... the last time I saw them (move in day) the kid behind the mom was only a child and the other girl running was a teen and now she's an adult. I really enjoy the story progression of sims 3  In high school Jude took a job at the book store just to make some spare money, but he's been making more money playing guitar for tips and painting so he decided to quit.  Mimi got the opportunity to throw a party for a co-worker, Cycl0n3 Sw0rd.. (or how every he types it out) because he was promoted. So on the way home from work she picked up some decorations and food and set it all up and called every one to come over. When the party started the family went out back and started up the music.  But Mimi could not for the life of her get the guests to move out to the back and they all stayed crowded in the house.  Mimi tried to then move the music in side and get the party going in there, but no one got in the mood. This snob (and i mean that literally... Mimi found out one of her traits was a snob) left the party booing.  The family didn't want the party goods to go to waste and seeing as it was Marcey's birthday the very next day they decided to throw her a party right then when all the guests left.  She is not too bad looking as a kid either.  Mimi was about to get a slice of cake when she had to run in the house to the bathroom O.O You better just be sick from eating food that was left out!  *sad sigh* Mimi had barely made it back out to the yard for cake when her belly popped. WHAT!? NO! Mimi and Jude had agreed they were only going to have one kid! When did this happen.. they have only .. *cough* one time since Marcey was born and there were NO baby chimes. *grumbles*  |

I really enjoy story progression of The Sims 3 too, keeps it realistic. It's also nice to see the town changing along with our Sims. Hehe, Cycl0n3 Sw0rd is still young in your game! In mine he's reached elder status (that's the nicest way I can put it at 8AM LOL), but still flaunts himself around town wearing those sunglasses. He also tends to strut in my game...hehe. Marcellette is an adorable kid too, she's got an 'innocent' look about her. Another baby on the way, YAY! It gets a YAY even though it was unexpected! *wonders if it'll be a boy or a girl*  |

I love it when they sit and read together, the toddler actually turning pages and stuff instead of sitting face to face.
Yep, definitely love the story progression idea too. Having Sims grow up, die, move out, new ones move in.... just like a real town setting.
Be glad when Ambitions arrives though, having to actually go to work with them.
One such career.... the doctor one.... will be fascinating, especially if an Evil Sim gets their hands on a patient!!!!! O.O
Such gorgeous Sims, truly.....
soooo jealous

Kate: Cycl0n3 is old in my game too... seems like it was the very next day after that party that he aged up to elder. I am really like Marcellette! I have not liked a sim so much.. well not since Jude. Maybe cause they are related is why I am enjoying her so much @deliciousruby: OMGosh.. i have not even thought of the capabilities of an evil sim being a doctor and what that might mean in the new Ep. lol... has a date been announced yet?? They keep saying Summer.. i hope they mean early summer.. I want it now (while I am still back int he mood to play) Update coming in a few...

*NOTE: Sims may look a little different started in this update.. I changed the skins i was using.Late one night just before 2am the living room phone started to ring. I didn't want to wake any one so I said ignore the call... and I got the message someone had drowned I didn't know any of my sims were friends with this person but apparently they were and I made them miss the call.. now I feel bad.  Marcellette does not have the neat trait (yet), but I swear she does already. Here she is making the bed for her parents... awww... too bad Mimi was still in it o.O  Jude now has a sparkly paint brush. I think it must have been that inspired moodlet he bought.  Kendall has made it her soul duty to teach everyone.. and I mean EVERYONE the "oh where is my mummy" song that she learned in Al Simhara. Thank you Kendall   Mimi spends a lot of her pregnancy time writing and it has paid off. She finished her latest book and with that got her LTW of earning $4000 a week in royalties.  After finishing the book she was on her way to bed when she went into labor.  And gave birth to a baby boy.. meet Jett.  Also I think I have found out why Jepson was so mad at Kendall when they bumped into each other on the street. Umm.. seems the twin I was calling Jepson through all the updates was actually Jack! And the one I called Jack was Jepson :/ I felt so horrible and now see why JACK was so mad. He knew who he was.. and all his life to be called another name.

*NOTE: Sims may look a little different started in this update.. I changed the skins i was using. *giggle-snort* Peggy skins? My Sims always seem to miss those phone calls. I've never had one where somebody has drowned though, they always seem to be about "old age" and making the most of what days they have left. Kendall has made it her soul duty to teach everyone.. and I mean EVERYONE the "oh where is my mummy" song that she learned in Al Simhara. Thank you Kendall You can learn songs? Why did I not know this? Where in Al Simhara did Kendall learn that? Or who did she learn it from? I can imagine it gets pretty annoying after a while though, just like Edith's red sparklies got annoying for me hehe. YAY! Baby Jett!! Hi baby Jett!  Also I think I have found out why Jepson was so mad at Kendall when they bumped into each other on the street. Umm.. seems the twin I was calling Jepson through all the updates was actually Jack! And the one I called Jack was Jepson :/ I felt so horrible and now see why JACK was so mad. He knew who he was.. and all his life to be called another name. Hehehe!! All I can say is, OOPS! Poor thing. |

Now my simmies are with out a car.
They've already had some kiddies thanks to story progression: the first born was little boy Rowan, and then they had twin girls Sky and Scarlet. Kendall is pregnant again, am quite excited to see what she has!
