Chapter 14: First Day of Winter

Today is Saturday, Prom Day!!
Week 5 b (15).jpg
The whole family got up and had breakfast while I was looking at the scenery (oops).

Zeke cleared the table then went to play on his rocking horse.

Since learning to drive last night took so long, neither of the twins did their homework so they got it out of the way after breakfast.

Both Kat and Madison broke the down stairs toilets at the same time. Instead of spending the money on a repairman, as they usually do, they decided to save the money and fix it since they weren't pressed for time today.
Both girl's had the day off, and while it's family day, the twins planned to invite their dates over later today to make sure they don't miss Prom, so it's just going to be a lazy afternoon at home.

Zeke and Loki were spending a bit of time together outside. Aww, at least Loki likes Zeke better than he did Catherine...

*Sigh* Maybe not.

Madison has an opportunity for Emma Hatch to upgrade her stereo and return it for some cash.
She leveled up from fixing the toilet, so she went ahead and upgraded the stereo.

Then returned it for a bit of extra money. It wasn't a great deal of cash, but it helped.

Catherine and Leonidas invited Cheri and Ty over. I tried keeping them outside, but they kept going in the house.
When the limo arrived, Ty, Catherine, and Leonidas climbed in like they were suppose to. But Cheri never did. I used MC to send her to the school. So she did go to Prom with Leonidas, but she didn't ride in the limo with them.

Catherine and Ty became Prom King and Queen. The twins and their dates had wonderful times at Prom. Screenshot-21.jpg

Zeke invited Aimee to stay for dinner with him, but she had to leave shortly after dinner. Zeke took care of his needs then climbed in bed. He got wore out pretty good from all the playing they did.

I made my first error with Kat this entire game. I forgot she was vegetarian for a moment and had her make hamburgers for dinner (though Zeke and Aimee got into leftovers before she could finish cooking). Kat ended up eating and hamburger.
She started gagging and I couldn't figure out why and thought she might have done something she shouldn't have while I was distracted at some point. Turns out it was just from eating meat.
Kat and Madison went to bed right before Prom ended. And as soon as the twins got home from Prom they were dead on their feet and they, too, climbed in bed.

*I installed a new lighting mod. I liked the other one's daytime light better, but so far, this one is much, much better at night (as in, it's not pitch black where you can't see. Pictures coming later of nighttime).*
Another beautiful Sunday in Sunset Valley. It's technically the first day of winter, but with temps in the 60's (F), it's a perfect day.

Loki and Catherine seemed to have found some common ground, now that she's older. Maybe Loki just isn't a kid-friendly kitty.

The family come staggering in for breakfast at different hours, then everyone took their turns getting needs met.
Screenshot-22.jpg
The family all gathered in the living room. Madison worked on a painting, Zeke wished to gain a skill point in writing, and the twins were enjoying some of Kat's guitar playing.
Screenshot-28.jpg
Leonidas thought that today, such a beautiful day, would be a great day for a picnic in a park with Cheri. He called her and they agreed to met there. Madison let him borrow her car for the date.
Screenshot-29.jpg
Cheri was happy to see Leonidas and quickly gave him a kiss and thanked him for inviting her.
Screenshot-30.jpg
They spent quite a while just talking and listening to music.
Screenshot-31.jpg
Leonidas asked Cheri to dance, and she happily accepted.
Screenshot-33.jpg
Even though she spent a good portion of the time stepping on his toes. Screenshot-35.jpg
Cheri apologized profusely. Leonidas kept assuring her it was not a big deal.
Screenshot-36.jpg
It was getting late in the afternoon, but there was still plenty of sunshine left to enjoy. Leonidas thought it was a perfect day to shoot some hoops at the pier.
Screenshot-37.jpg
Unfortunately, Cheri was not as impressed with this idea as she was the park picnic.
Screenshot-38.jpg
She did make an effort, but Leonidas saw she wasn't truly enjoying herself so he let her off the hook.
Screenshot-45.jpg
Instead, he suggested they get into the hot tub.
Screenshot-46.jpg
Cheri was much more interested in the hot tub than the basketball court.
Screenshot-50.jpg
They were so relaxed with the music and the setting sun, they just enjoyed the moment for a few.

*Night time photo here, unedited. See, much better*
Once the sunset and the temperature started to drop, Leonidas and Cheri headed to the diner for a late, quick meal before ending their date. Leonidas promised to see Cheri tomorrow at school and happily went home to go to bed.

Madison finished her painting during the day.

Kat spent most of the day working out.
Screenshot-53.jpg
Zeke completed a few wishes, one of which was to stargaze.
Screenshot-55.jpg
Catherine called Ty earlier, but he was at work, so she spent the day catching up on her romance novel.
Screenshot-57.jpg
And Loki played in the tub.
Overall, the family had a relaxing day at home.
Screenshot-58.jpg
After spending so much time working out, Kat was the last one to go to bed after taking care of needs.
While she ate a late dinner, the first snow started to fall.

Winter was officially here for Sunset Valley.


*Leonidas has 4 days until he ages to a YA (Catherine, too). Kat has 7 days until elder, and Madison is a couple days less than Kat. Zeke becomes a teen in 3 days.
I'm giving it serious thought to moving the family (and the Duncan family) to a new world for Leonidas's take over on the Legacy. I just haven't decided where he would move to.

Chapter 13: Hot and Cold Duncan Kids

These first few photos were taking outside, at night, so I have edited/lightened them up. Again, I'm new to editing Sims photos, so the color is likely off in several of them. Honestly, it's not something I actively do (as I only do this to try to make sure you guys can see them clearly), so I do apologize that they aren't that great, color wise. Leonidas really has taken a liken to Cheri. Seems she likes him, too. Neither one had any problems with flirting. Cheri even initiated a few fun flirts with Leonidas. Leonidas was feeling very into the moment, so what better time then to go for a heat of the moment kiss? Would he be rejected? Nope, no rejection here. Cheri was feeling it, too. Ty asked Catherine to watch the stars. I must say, I'm one happy Sim God. These guys are getting along wonderfully! Both couples settled in to watch the stars. After they watched the stars, Catherine moved in for a heat of the moment kiss, after all... T...

Chapter 15: The End of Gen One

The final week of Gen One is upon us. Kat's story is closing and Leonidas is taking over. This update may be a bit longer than normal, just cause I want to finish Kat's story in this last update of Gen One. Winter has fully came to Sunset Valley, snow covering every surface causing sims to bundle up before heading out of their homes. The Silver family is enjoying their morning meal together, happy that they all got to share the time this morning. After breakfast and needs, Kat decided to spend her day off at the Dojo. She jogged to the Dojo to give her time to think and clear her mind. Time is passing Kat by so quickly, soon it will be her elder birthday, her eldest are nearly YA and her baby is soon to be a teen. Where had time gone? Had she really spent the better part of her life wrapped up in advancing in her career? No sign of love in her life? She knew what her heart was telling her, but she wasn't even sure how to go about following her heart. ...

Chapter 5: Consequences

Kat immediately regretted jumping into bed with Davon. She was far too focused on her career to settle down and she wasn’t even sure she liked Davon like that. He was a great guy. Fun to hang out with. But she really couldn’t see herself settling with him long term. He just didn’t do it for her. She began to explain to him that she just wanted to be friends, nothing more serious than that right now. Needless to say, Davon was not too pleased with Kat. He did not take the news well, which just reinforced Kat’s decision. The next morning, the girls didn’t even get to have breakfast together. Madison was running that and Kat burnt the waffles again. Madison left without eating and Kat just grabbed a quick meal of cereal. After work, Kat headed to the local Dojo to practice Martial Arts for another career opportunity she had. It didn’t take her long to earn her first belt. This might be something she spends more time on in the future. It felt good to get some a...
