Last time:
- Olivia practiced meditating
- Sierra became a toddler, then a child
- Leroy, the dog passed away, but the family got a new pet, Floofer
- Gerald gave birth to an alien boy, Jett
What's with all these market crashes lately?
Anyway, they didn't have much money to begin with, so
DeeDee: *having PTSD flashbacks to the alien asylum*
Diana was quickly saved by her own dear mother
Floofer is still cute!
Carla and her zits: Sis, you look redder than usual?
No, Gerald is not pregnant, he just managed to get a stomach bug somewhere
If you forgot Carla's orientation, yes, she's bi
As his father dealed with the stomach bug, Jett was taken care by Olivia
There was also a family meeting later, featuring some Bankses and Sergeants
It was Dia's birthday!
Aubrey Banks: Does that mean she will be in my class again?
Sync cheers from the twins, Gerald and Rachel Sergeant
Olivia really likes chips lol
The youngsters, Linette Banks and Sierra became friends!
Then Lin got shocked
Aubrey: Not my daughter!
But back to our birthday girl!
Family / Romance - Gemini
+ Makeup, Jewellery
- Formal wear
Traits: Color Blind (Gerald) - Bookworm (Olivia) - Dog Lover - Rebellious
LTW: Captain Hero
Carla had a nice chat with cousin Mina Sergeant
And Dia with Yvette Sergeant!
Of course, first thing first, to the ElectroMart!
Handheld acquired!
Poor Gerald didn't feel very well
Sierra had an unpleasant awakening
Sierra: Ugh, that's smelly!
Diana: I'm not interested in your smelly story, Sierra!
Anyway, it was time for Sierra to open the lemonade business, before I forgot!
It wasn't very profitable
Our happy mailman is a huge fan of Floofer too!
But who isn't?
I hope Gerald was cured by this time lol
I thought Olivia could find a use of some new clothes, so Fashion Fever it was!
In retrospect, I should've chosen a red top, but oh well
Dia brought home cousin Horace Banks from school
Carla tried the lemonade business, and Olivia had mercy on her lol
Truly frightening, Horace XD
Carla invited over her... not so love interest, Angelina Woods (and her zits)
Floofer: I want hugs too
Guess what! It was another birthday
Horace: Not that again!
Olivia really hates cakes it seems. No surprise she always goes for the chips lol
Look at this woman!
Fortune / Popularity - Aries
+ Cologne, Blond hair
- Hard worker
Traits: Color Blind (Gerald) - Genius (Olivia) - Lucky - Easily Impressed - Loves the Cold
LTW: 5 Top level businesses
Sierra brought home Fredrick Saunders btw
He was kinda forgotten, though
A book club was started
And there was - yes - another birthday!
This time, Jett's!
Look at his tiny pointy ears!
Stats: Virgo
Traits: Family Oriented (Gerald) - Excitable
<3
Birthdays aside, Sierra still had to do her homework
And Jett joined the brick fan club
And these two don't try for babies anymore :(
Dia might not be the best tutor
Floofer: Stop it, you mischievous green human!
Horace didn't take it well
Um, I think he has some mixed feelings about this
He's adorable!
Gerald is still not a huge fan of potty training
That looks painful
Fianlly Gerald got better, so he could go to work at the Book Nook!
He got Tristan's face this time lol
Bobby: Bad tree! I can't even pee on you!
Well, Barbara, the townie wasn't interested in purchasing books
Jack Lumber on the other hand, was overly excited
Gerald: Here are the books!
Leann Danielson: Um, sorry, I left my wallet at home
Liar
She and Chad Springer started reading the books instead of buying them lol
Look a happy preggo lady!
Megan Summers
Leann's forever fiancé, Brett Woods was there as well
I have a feeling, he left his wallet at home too
Well, at least they entertained each other
Mae (by Slyndsey): Oh, what a lovely couple!
Meanwhile
Olivia didn't enjoy potty training either
Floofer has some levitating powers
Sierra became a top student!
Dia brought home Levi Masterson from school!
He didn't keep it in secret that he liked her!
I'm not sure gossiping about your own father is the best way to start a date, though
Carla brought home Abel, the townie
He was friendly
Things turned to a little more serious on the date!
That still seems dangerous
<3
They really got the hang of that kissing thing
Sierra seemed desperate about this lemonade business lol
She still had no customers
And Carla seemed just as bored with potty training, as the rest of the family
Well, they were still poor, so digging it was!
Dia came home with cousin Mina this time
Look at this dog!
Sierra came home with Sherwood Kinsley-Danielson
He was a bit bored with the conversation
He enjoyed mary mack better!
Carla decided to visit the Birch Park!
Maybe it was a surprise family outing, because uncle in law Finley Sergeant was there
As well as cousin Errol Sergeant
So Carla settled for a game of chess with herself
Meanwhile, Sierra tried to entertain Mina
With less success
Jett: It... moves
How do you even see flora in the sky?
Gerald: Hi!
Cutie <3
Floofer: What do you want, red human?
Sierra: Sit up! Like this!
Floofer: You mean, down?
After 4 days, Sierra finally had her first customer!
In the form of Shawn Danielson
The lemonade business started blooming, it seems!
Although Desiree Favreau seemed a bit sceptical
Carla went out this night too!
To the Park with the Gazebo!
Brett was trying to provide some music here
Carla liked it, though
Or she was just charitable
Barbara, the townie seems grumpy lately
No one asked your opinion, Trenton, the sameshirt townie!
Jasper, the townie: Omg, this music is awful!
Justin Thyme: Boo, I could do better!
He really tried
(it was awful as well)
Despite having a couple bolts, Gavin (by Starlla) didn't show much interest in Carla
Gerald: Sing with me!
Jett: But your voice is bad!
Let's end the update with Dia playing intensely
And a nice sky picture
And a nice family picture! The tax was 2800 simoleons
---
- Carla will likely move out next round! They don't really have money to finance it, but it's very tight here lol
- Carla hardly have any bolts with anyone. Maybe I'll just wait for Angie to grow up and hope they will have something!
- Thank you for reading! :)
