Hello from the Lind household! Hopefully this update won't be too long because I actually finished up their week over a month ago and since then I've been cleaning up my downloads folder which resulting in me increasing the amount of custom content instead... Oops. Well, prepare for some new fashions after this update! But it gave me time to forget some things. Anyhoo...

MONDAY
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm going to be honest. Most of their week was uneventful. Monday we had the gypsy visit us in the morning.
That evening, Zakki & her household visited. Zakki is Zoey's niece/Walter's cousin. My nephew Lucian also came home on the bus with Winifred.
It seems Lucian and Rocco are not going to get along. I had a very stern talking-to with my nephew, don't you worry.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
TUESDAY
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tuesday was under-whelming. Zavoy and his family came by to visit (Zavoy is Zakki's younger brother so Zoey's nephew/Walter's cousin). But no fighting with the townies tonight!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
WEDNESDAY
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
YEEE-HAW! It literally pays to have Fortune Sims in the household!
With such a handsome sum in their bank account, Walter was dying to spend some of it. He has the next few days off of work so he went on down to the Purrfect Paws pet store.
I would like you all to meet Fable! I struggled with coming up with a name. I narrowed it down to a few choices and asked my daughter to pick after giving her some household trivia.
Her name doesn't quite roll off the tongue yet, but I like it paired up with Aspen best out of the names I came up with.
I must thrive on chaos because somehow I thought adopting a puppy and having the Headmaster visit on the same day was a grand idea.
Holy smokes, there is a lot riding on this meal. Zoey and Walter weren't hungry but I had them join in for the schmooze factor.
Julie makes some dang good pork chops!
Winifred and Wendolyn are accepted to private school with a score of 101/90!
That's a nice high-point want achieved for our knowledge girl, Winifred.

THURSDAY
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I've been prepping Frazier for retirement. Usually I let the Fortune Sims work until they drop, but Frazier is in the sports career so I feel he needs to retire before he's injured, you know?
So he's been home using up his vacation days. Thursday while he was home, I had his brother Fletcher's family over to visit. Wendolyn adores her 'cousins'. What a cute pic of her with Vincent Jr!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
FRIDAY
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Friday, all of the extended cousins were over for pizza night. And of course I didn't take a single picture!
The extended cousins list includes Zaryn and Zyler Archer, Rocco Wolosenko, and twins Vincent Jr & Vera Lind. They are all really good kids, even if Rocco DID slap Lucian too on Monday night before I sent them home!
SATURDAY
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So obviously on Saturday I made up for the lack of pictures from the night before.
The day started off quietly with Walter teaching Fable some commands.
But Saturday is playdate day. Hope Julie and Zoey have their wine ready!
These kids, man. Sebastian and Quentin were playing in the damn street when the maid was leaving.
Surely Gretchen the maid knows there's a lot of dang kids around but I don't like to take chances.
Frazier and Zoey are out there in the front yard not paying a bit of attention.
Lord Wright, there's a lot of kids everywhere. They are in the house, outside the house, you can't get away from them.
See? They are everywhere! We're surrounded! Save yourselves!
And I KNOW for a fact that Zyler did not grow up in the barn. Quit standing there with the door open, son!
Saturday was Wendolyn's birthday! Two teenage girls in the house? This is nothing compared to the real Julie's house though. She's got this, I'm sure.
Since we had all the neighborhood kids and teens already here, I didn't bring over all the family. They'll see the whole family tomorrow for dinner.
Yeah, I'm still waiting for all the guests to settle around our birthday girl. She's being very patient!
Here we go!
She looks left!
She looks right!
Then she makes a wish! She blows out the candles!
The crowd is going wild!
Spin!
Spin!!
SPIN!!!
And here she goes!
(Pictured: Zoey, Vera, Ceera (Wait, what is she doing here?), Yorwyck. Xyla behind. Zaryn walking away)
I'd yell "AND SHE SCORES", but honey, not in that outfit. Give us a moment.
She rolled popularity. This is THE FIRST born-in-game Sim to roll pop. At first I was excited.
Then I remembered she's shy. I debated just re-rolling but we'll play it how it lies and if it doesn't seem to be the right fit then she gets a re-roll in Uni.
Anyways. ISN'T SHE ADORABLE??
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
SUNDAY
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sunday was another day I forgot to take pictures. Until the evening.
We are going to have some cute lil blondies incoming next week!
While I was out here in the backyard, I realized I forgot to take pictures of the backyard to show off.
Soooo... The pictures were taken in the dark.
Their backyard isn't all that exciting anyway.
Here's the back porch and a patio area.
If you'll pivot to the right from that last shot, there's the backside of the garage.
Chess table, telescopes, and the sentrybot & hydrobot hidden on the far side of the garage.
Then lastly, the pet domain. The little shelter has a bathtub and food bowl. The glowy thing is the Kibble of Life.
So, that's a wrap! The season is turning over from summer to fall, so it's time to move on to check on the Panda sisters (along with their roommate Tyson).
As always, thanks for reading and happy simming!
