The Summers Legacy - SAD NEWS

[Kate]

Thank-you muchly ^_^

I was quite surprised to see I was the first one to comment on this... especially seeing as I'm a few days late! Where have all the Cookie Festers gone?

[Piñacolada]

Welcome.

And I dunno.. *sniff sniff* No one wants to read my poor lonely legacy anymore....

[Shell]

NO...i want to read it...and i am sorry, i saw that you had updated, just have 3 assignments looming, and Dizzy wasn't around to make me slack off...LOL. The twins are so cute..Noah is my fav (dont tell Leon) hehe..

[Dizzy]

OOhh.. loved the up date.. wow... twins again! but you must be an old pro at raising twins by now
And they are looking cute too

And phew glad Aaron was able to work back up to the top of the career quickly... stupid mean chance card :/

[Piñacolada]

Shell: Assignments ey?? Ok ok.. i forgive ya!
And yeh.. Noah is my fave too hehe.. shhh!

Dizzy: Ohh finally here you are.. what's your excuse ey?!
Yehh raising twins is old hat for me now in this game the amount I've had! Old hat?! Is that a saying or have I just made that up... how odd... anyways! You get my point! lol.
And yes.. stupid chance card! Am soo bad at those things Aaron loved being a space pirate! And he looks so good in the uniform! Am well glad I got him back his job..

I have all the pics for the next update! Just gotta write some stuff... so it can be here pretty soon.. if anyone wants it that is!

[Shell]

I dont want it soon..i want it now *LOL*

[Kate]

Me too I want it nooooowwwwww!!!

[Piñacolada]

Hehe is that so??

Well I gotta vacate the house shortly... my bro has got some friends round and they're driving me mad! But I should be able to get on with it later on this evening.. so.. watch this space!

[Piñacolada]

Ok sorry it took a little longer than I thought it would... buttt.. it's here! Updaaaaate!

7.3 - Losses and Gains...

And so when we last left off, the latest set of Summers family twins had just grown up into children...
And here they are!
Leon:

And Noah:

Hmm.. not bad! Still think Noah is slightly the cuter of the two

Leon is a sagittarius
And his stats are:

Sloppy/neat: 2
Shy/outgoing: 6
Lazy/active: 9
Serious/playful: 10
Grouchy/nice: 1

And Noah is also a sagittarius
And his stats are:

Sloppy/neat: 2
Shy/outgoing: 10
Lazy/active: 10
Serious/playful: 10
Grouchy/nice: 1

Later that evening...

Bigger bump! Not long to wait now till we see the new arrival!

Little puppy Lulu isn't quite house trained yet, and so she keeps doing her business on the kitchen floor!
Most of the family quickly tell Lulu off and then quickly mop up the mess... But not Leon!

Nope.. he likes to play in it... Yeugh! Nasty child... lol

He does love Lulu though.. here he is giving her some fuss before his first day at school...

Check out the fetching pink pjs! Very nice... hehe.

After a rather uneventful first day at school, both the twins came home with B+ report cards.
Noah wasn't too impressed....


He didn't have to fret for long though, Aaron and Viola were soon on hand to help with their homework!

Bit more studying and you'll soon be up to scratch kids!

A little bit later that evening though, there was some sad news!

Oh no! Not again Bonkers!! He must have been feeling neglected with the new puppy around
Poor kitty....
Viola quickly gets on the phone to report him missing...

Fingers crossed he gets found soon!

Catalina soon had bigger things to worry about though... as late on that evening, she went into labour!

And Henry was at work!
Viola rushed into the room though to give her some support, just in time to see her give birth to a beautiful baby GIRL! Aww

Here's a close up of little baby Anna:

She's just like her mum! With Catalina's skintone, eyes and hair.

When Henry finally came home from work very late that evening, it seemed that missing the birth of his new baby girl might just have been worth it.. as he managed to bag a promotion!

Well done Henry!

He got up early the next morning and used his bonus plus a few contacts to get the twins into private school that very day.
Here they are heading off in their swanky uniforms!

Good luck boys! Do us proud!
And it seems like Leon made quite a good impression!

But.. not to be out done, so did Noah!

And they even both managed to come home with...

A+ report cards! Well done
They just had time for a well deserved celebration with Aaron before he headed off to work...

Where he faced a situation...

Hmm.. haven't we seen this somewhere before?? I think you know what to do Aaron! *fingers crossed*

Yehh! Bravo Aaron!! Hehe.

A good day for all!
Even Henry, sort of.. as he once again conquered his dreaded fear of diaper changing!

Lol.

Despite just giving birth a few hours before she had to be at work, Catalina didn't want to take another day off since Henry was going to be at home to look after Anna.
Apparantly Leon missed her being there when he got home from school though, as when she did get in a bit later.. he ran to give her a big hug!

Aww How can he only have 1 nice point too?! lol

The next morning it was time for somebody's birthday... Lulu's

Aww she's no longer a puppy! But she makes a cute dog
Wish Bonkers had been here to share in the moment... *sniff*
The first thing Viola does to celebrate is put a lovely pink collar on Lulu so if she gets lost too, someone'll hopefully bring her home again!

Looks goooodd... But put that tongue away Lulu! lol
The first thing Henry does to celebrate her growing up.. is find her a job!

Well.. I suppose it is his life-time want for all his pets to do well...

Later that evening, a special event happens, it's Aaron and Viola's golden anniversary!
They just have a quiet evening in enjoying each others company... as sadly most of the other family members couldn't make it round to the house to congratulate them
But it did mean that Aaron reached his life time want!


The next morning Catalina answered the phone...

Could it be??!

Yayy Bonkers has been found!!

And here he is back home again...

Oh Bonkers we're all so sorry! Please don't ever leave again

Later that day, Henry had a decision to make at work...

But he makes the right choice!

Well done Henry!
A happy Noah greets his dad when he comes home from work...

Aww! Again! How the only 1 nice point?! Blah.. stupid game

And he was home just in time to join in Anna's birthday celebrations!

Happy birthday kiddo!!

And what does she look like as a toddler?!?




Ooook... I'll show ya!

Here she is!

With cute bunches! But rather thin lips... hmmmm...


The next day, it was the weekend, and Henry had a surprise in store for his family!
He had been saving up for a little while and....
Bought a new house!
Yup, the Summers family are moving again!

What will the new house be like?
Well to see that, you're gonna have to come back and read the next chapter!
You know you want to

Agree.....ewww! What a gross kid.
Anna is so cute..and i thought for sure you would keep her toddler pic from us.

[Kate]

Hehe I have to agree with Shell... am quite shocked to see that picture of Anna! Shame about her distinct lack of lips, otherwise she'd be quite the little cutie!

Loved the update, can't believe that little Bonkers ran away! *cries*

Lulu's lovely, I especially like that picture of her with her tongue out... hehe.

:update: !

[Piñacolada]

Shell: Lol yeh I was not best pleased to catch him doing that!
And I was feeling generous since the update was a little delayed hehe.

Kate: Hehe yeh am a little disappointed Anna seems to have the no lips curse Am hoping she looks a little better as she grows up!
I know! Poor Bonkers! He's never going to be neglected for attention again!
Lol yeh she's a pretty cute dog when she pokes her tongue out!

This is officially my last week of summer hols! So hopefully I shall be able to get an update up sometime before fri... (My Birthday so I shall be rather busy hehe). After that though.. it's back to uni so they may have to be not as frequent am afraid...

[DejAng3l]

Great update Colada.....glad we got to see the little tyke anna....yes...just simply awful that she seems to have inherited the no upper lips curse...but all your previous simmies turned out pretty good looking even with the no lips curse....so i'm sure that anna will turn out just as well...

Awww...what a bummer that you'll be able to do less updates from now on....but i guess that would be a good thing for me because i don't have as much time to come on anymore....LOL...well enjoy the rest of your summer holiday before you have to go back to school...

[Piñacolada]

Hehe thanks dejang
Yeh am hoping Anna turns out ok as she gets older coz Henry had that same problem as a kid, and he turned out nice.
I have been enjoying the rest of my summer hols Only a few more days to go! *sniffle*...

[Kate]

Well in the next few days I demand you update!

When are you back to school next week? I start again on Wednesday... *sniff sniff* But luckily Wednesdays are my half days! So a nice easy start to a new school year.

Wait, I just realised Uni's don't work in the same way... Well, in other words, what day does term start again?

[Piñacolada]

I have to enrol on monday
And then I have a placement that starts on weds, till the following weds.... then I have a couple of days off to do an assignment, then my actual classes start the following monday (17th)...
I'll try and update before I go back! But I'm going out later today.. and I got a busy day tomorrow with it being my 21st birthday and all hehe. Tis pretty much gonna be a birthday weekend celebrating, and filling in the last of my forms for college.... So I'll try! But I can't make any promises sorry!

[Simmertime]

Colada~ ;D I finally got around to reading the sim stories yet again. Anyways love the updates and my pick so far is Noah although Leon comes a close second but we will see I suppose Cat will be having more right? Anna is cute but not as cute as the other two.

[Piñacolada]

Yay thanks Sherry

And yup Cat may be popping out another little sim when I next get round to updating... you shall have to see hehe.
I'll try and get one up tomorrow if I get some time in between preparing for my first day back at uni on monday!

[Piñacolada]

Ok so I didn't get one up sunday... butt...

Here's one now!


7.4 - New residance

And so the Summers legacy have moved again!
Here is their new house... conveniently, just across the street from their old one!
Front:

And back:

Here's the plans....
Ground floor:

Second floor:

Top floor:


Bonkers immediately settles in well, acquainting himself with a lovely new scratching post!

Yehh killl Bonkers!! hehe.

Meanwhile having got the twins safely off to school, Henry amused himself in the new music room.

Work that guitar!

Family orientated Aaron decided to spend his time off a little more "productive", teaching Anna to talk...

Aww her first word was "grandad"!
Pleased with himself, he then taught her potty-training too!

Though Catalina felt a little left out at this point, so she put her books down and spent some time bonding with her little girl, teaching her how to walk...


Later that night at work, Lulu had a decision to make....

But sadly she doesn't make the right choice!

Lucky it was only a fine...

Anna did her part in cheering her up the next morning though with lots of love and fuss!

When she'd finished being fussed, Henry took her outside for a bath and then taught her a new command...


Speaking of promotions, a hopefull Viola had a tough decision to make at work that day...

But sadly, she didn't make the right choice!

Woops! Lucky the family ain't short of cash!

There was better news when the twins came home from school that day though...

They became the best of friends! Aww

And Lulu and Bonkers started getting on well too!


A bit later that afternoon, Noah took advantage of the newly turned autumn weather by heading outside to splash in some puddles left by the rain...

Least it's not as nasty as splashing in puddles of puppy-pee like his brother!

And when Cat came home from work...

She got a promotion! Well done Cat! Almost at the top now...

Time for some more celebrations then I think...
The twins' birthday!

Aaron was at work, but the rest of the family (including a chubby Henry!) joined in...

And here they are as teens!
Leon:

And Noah:


Leon is a Fortune aspiration.
His turn ons are fitness and underwear.
And his turn off is vampirism.
Noah is a Popularity aspiration.
His turn ons are stink and fitness.
And his turn off is blonde hair.

The next morning as Cat tried to bathe Anna, she had a worrying surprise...

Could she be??? Hmm....


Yep!
Prepare for another new arrival!

Lulu had another hard day at work...

But it turned out well!

Well done Lulu!

Hopefully only a little more hard work and she'll soon be at the top of her career... that should please Henry!

Speaking of Henry, he decided to spend his day off in the pool...

Trying to lose those extra few pounds!
Though it didn't go that well, he was pleased when Noah came home from school...


But his happiness is short lived.. as the family get a very unwanted visitor...

Nooo! Not Bonkers!!
We had some good times... and some bad times! Least he'll never run away again....

RIP Bonkers!
Henry tried to cheer Cat up by reminding her of the new arrival they were soon going to have...

But Lulu wouldn't stop howling for ages...



Despite the sadness of that late afternoon though, the family soon had to perk up, as for the second day in a row there were some birthday celebrations to be had!
This time, it was Anna's turn...

Sadly once again, Aaron couldn't be there, but the others had a good time! And Henry still hasn't shifted those pounds... No birthday cake for him!

Anyways, here is Anna a little more grown up!

She is a Libra
And her stats are:

Sloppy/neat: 7
Shy/outgoing: 7
Lazy/active: 1
Serious/playful: 2
Grouchy/nice: 10

Shortly after they finished partying, Leon and Noah decided to make a go of it at college...
Bye bye guys! See you soon!


The next day it was time for Anna's first day at (private) school!


And Cat got a littttle bit bigger whilst making breakfast...


Aaron had the day off, and spent it training Lulu a new command so she could get that final promotion and Henry could get a little closer to living out a happy life!


Anna fit in well at school!

But didn't quite get the grades her parents were hoping for... (B+)

But am sure with a little hard work she'll soon impress them!

Henry impressed himself when he came home from work though...

With another promotion!

As he worked hard on getting another one and Catalina had a lie down, Viola helped Anna with her homework...


Later that evening they had the rare opportunity of all sitting down for a family meal together...

Aww..
But what is it with this generation and spatulas?! lol

Late that night there was a ghostly visitor...

Awww Bonkers! We miss you!

The next morning, a heavily pregnant Cat managed to set the kitchen on fire making breakfast!

Yikes!
Luckily though a fireman was quickly on hand to put out the blaze, and save the kitchen, her and the new arrival!


Although it seemed the stress of it got to Cat a little, as just as Lulu learnt another command from Henry...


She went to the bathroom and...

Went into labour!!

Will the new baby be ok despite it's near miss?!
Will anyone in the family realise there is a tree coming through the bathroom wall?!
All will be revealed in the next update!

[Shell]

*shakes fist* i want to see the new baby..blah..
and the tree just isnt just growing through the wall its growing into Kats head *lol*
and the boys are still cute!
