Brief update on (nearly) everyone

Dustin’s family

Skip Junior’s kids grew up.  Storm first:

He looked fine as a little boy but now it’s obvious he’s inherited his father’s nose.

Dawn was next:

Her nose looks ok – inherited from her mother.  Their mother, Moonrise, meanwhile, had grown into an elder.  Skip jnr’s not there yet.  The eldest, Penny, headed off to uni.

Belle had another baby boy and called it Dusky.  Her husband, Ocean, wants 6 kids.  I realised this too late – could’ve got the cheesecake out.  Next pregnancy I will (and she is).

Beau’s family

Parker’s baby son, Louis, grew to a toddler.

Parker’s mother, Veronica, was met at the front of the house by the Grim Reaper one night after work.

She was 72.  Her partner, Ethan is in his late 60s and forgets to feed himself, preferring to raid the bar instead.  It won’t be long before he carks it.

Chip’s family

Stone Broke and Megan McTavish married privately with his mother looking on (in her pyjamas).

In the background, next door, is the original Broke house, now inhabited by Moonrise’s twin brother, Starlight, and his family.

Megan’s got a bit of a chin thing happening.

Megan, quite frankly, did not like the family home – way too small and plain – so they moved out and into a larger house nearer the sea.  Sorry, forgot to take pics – next update will show the new residence.

Nancy’s family

Finally, Joe Thayer’s wife, Amanda had a baby – a girl they called Anna.  Joe and Amanda lived next door to Joe’s half-brother, Cedar Greenwood.  Cedar and wife just had a second daughter and for some reason, the baby shows up in the apartment next door.  Joe and Amanda keep wanting to pick it up.  I moved the baby so that Joe could and he went to feed it with unfortunate results.

The baby, of course, had disappeared but that didn’t stop Joe acting as if it hadn’t.  He then dutifully threw the bottle away in the rubbish bin.

Weird glitch.

It’s a bit of a pain that you get glitches from the apartment next door like the baby above (which you can’t see of course).  Sims keep showing up even though they’ve moved out.  In one of my apartments with stairs, everyone got stuck on the stairwell and no-one could go up or down.  I solved that one by moving out the Sims who were affected.  Fun.

I only played 2 Sim days of the Brokes.  I’ll try to update after a longer period so something more happens.
