Legacy Cove - Week Twenty - 3 Bamboo Blvd

     Welcome back to Legacy Cove!  Yardley Panda, along with his wife Kayla, and their son Shawn are ready to share their weekly update.  Of course, we need to recap on the who's-who. 

Yardley Panda

Fortune - Aquarius - Nature boy

3-3-5-10-7

Kayla (Fancey) Panda

Knowledge - Libra - Arts & Crafts

4-8-4-4-10

Shawn Panda

Sagittarius - Nature boy

2-3-10-10-10

     Those are some crazy stats for a lil sprout like Shawn, huh?  (I've been told if I point out the puns and jokes, then they aren't funny.  So I won't).  Just a reminder, Yardley is of the third generation.  His siblings are Yvette, Yamaris, Yung, and twin sister Yeva.  That makes Shawn a cousin to Yvonne, Vincent, and Vamaris.  If only real life pandas reproduced like these guys!  Yardley's parents are Rob and Zamaris (RIP to the both of them).  

     Yardley and Shawn received their inheritance from Zamaris's recent passing as they slept.

     Kayla did not receive the same blessing. 

      That's pretty rotten luck.  Money doesn't buy health in Legacy Cove, unfortunately.  But she was better by Tuesday and came home from a fantastic day at work with great news!

     And even though Yardley and Shawn have been staying up late playing in their garden...

     Shawn is still bringing home good news from school!  Way to go, kid!  

     Kayla is the only potter we have in Legacy Cove.  Though she is still learning the ways of the clay, she's putting in the time and creating some really nice items!  The legacy heir Zack is the only other arts & crafty type in the neighborhood but he prefers to do portraits.  

     I think you all should expect what's coming next... Can't have a kid in this game without a birthday every week!  Shawn's about to join the rest of the crew in high school!

      Once nice thing about the big families is there's always plenty of Sims around to help celebrate!  The last picture is Auntie Yvette, Fletcher, Yvonne, Kayla, Yardley, Yung, and Vincent.  I think that might be Pearly hiding behind Vincent.  While I send Shawn off to pick out new clothes and fix up his hair, just a couple more photos (because I like random family pics).

     The first is Yardley and his older brother Yung.  They look alike, and they don't look alike. 

      The next is just the rare picture of Yardley and Kayla together.  I should definitely work on getting more pictures of the married couples together!

     There never seems to be a shortage of the two lovebirds known as Yung and Pearly though!  I can't keep them separated.  They are worse than teenagers!

     Back to our birthday boy!  Shawn is here to the right, playing hacky sack with uncle Fletcher and Vamaris.  He's a knowledge sim like his mom and wants to be Chief of Staff.  That's a pretty good mix of both parents, as his dad is in the medical career also.  

     There's been a lot of improvements this week with their house!  Between the inheritance and the promotions, they've managed to really expand.  Shawn has a new master suite of his own upstairs now. 

      That's all for this week!  Next update will be from the university house, prepare for the drama!  


Thanks for reading!

Legacy Cove - Week Twenty - 1003 Centowski Street

     Well, I forgot again to take a picture of the house at the start of the week so here's your Polly update.  She's kicking trashcans and adding to the roach problem.  It's the fall, flu season is here!  Thanks to Polly and a teen townie named Laken.  Ya'll suck.

     Anyway.  We're here now at the third house on the Centowski block, which is home to Xander, Cassie, and their daughter Treva.  And don't forget Teeny, the schnoodle!

Xander Centowski

Romance - Taurus - Gamer geek

10-9-10-5-1

Cassie (Greene) Centowski

Pleasure - Sagittarius - Nature nerd

2-7-8-8-7

Treva Centowski

Taurus - Games

8-7-8-10-1

Teeny

     These sims are always so busy with their promotions.  Xander has already made his way to Celebrity Chef and Cassie has finally caught up!  Congrats to the Celebrity Chef Couple!  

     The next day was another big day as Treva spun up to those teenage years.  I love birthdays!  Let's roll that beautiful cake footage!

Whoops, we weren't supposed to see that

There's Deb, Xander, and Uri in the background

Uncle Xavier, Uncle Xane, Antoinette, Grandma Zayna & Cassie

Cassie, Deb, Xayden, Aunt Lindsay, Xander, Uri

     Yay, we did it!  Treva rolled knowledge and she wants to be a Space Pirate like uncle Xavier.  No one ever wants to be Captain Hero.  Always a space pirate or criminal mastermind.  Sheesh.  Okay, she's had her makeover and... presto chango!

     The rest of the week went by fairly quietly.  Saturday of course is teen day and Treva spent some time chatting up Vamaris Lind.

     And Grandma Zayna was feeling social again and I got another pic of her with her grandkid!  I bet she's happy to finally have a girl in the family after 3 boys of her own, then 3 grandsons before Treva came along!

     Then finally it's time to send them all off to bed and say goodnight for the week!  Until next time guys!

Thanks for reading!

Legacy Cove - Week Twenty - 1002 Centowski Street

     Returning to the house of gardeners!  What a weird family, so outdoors-y.  This of course is the first of the Centowski twins.  Xavier, his wife Lindsay, and their so-cute-I-can't-stand-it son Uri.  A quick recap and we're off to the races. 

Xavier Centowski
Fortune - Sagittarius - Nature boy

Uri Centowski

Luna

Louie

     Soooo Louie is a new addition to the family.  I don't think he was introduced in week 19.  Sorry Louie!!  Please don't think it's because I favor all the schnoodles over the dalmations.  Sometimes there's just so many pictures and other things going on and oops, forgot there's a new dog in the house!  You might think that doesn't sound like something I'd forget but there's really a LOT of dogs in this neighborhood.  At least I'm feeding them all again and not letting them run off like Princess Peach.  Oops.  She's back though, if you didn't read the last blog update.  

     Ahem.. MOVING ON!  Lindsay started the week out with a promotion - BANG!- on Monday...

     ... And another one on Tuesday!  BANG BANG!  Knockin' em out of the park, girl!

     Meanwhile.. Louie is having a ruff time (sorry, I couldn't stop my fingers from typing that) putting Uri to bed by himself every night.  He's got loyalty to Xavier.  There must be something he can do....

     So he consults with Luna.  She agrees.  There IS something they can do. 

      Their mission is a success.  Now we just need to wait.  Uri will have the companionship he desires soon enough!  

     While we wait... have you met Benjamin Grundstrom?  We have some garbage kickers and he's getting to be a frequent visitor so we might as well put a name to the face. 

     Cute kid, huh?  If only he wasn't covered in bug juice, ew.  If you like a little more mature look, there's always the mailman, Hun Pai.  

     Yes, I'm totally scoping out potential mates .. if only the majority of the NPC's weren't male because I have a lot of boys.  Nothing against same sex relationships but I'm in this game for the genetics.  Luckily there's still plenty of townie gals roaming around for all of these boys in generation 4 to marry!

     Meanwhile... while I wait for these dang puppies... Lindsay nails another promotion!  She's on fire!  ... Sorry, that's not a phrase to use in this game.  I have a picture of my simself on fire from someone else's game.  

     While we continue to wait for Luna to have these pups, Uri is already ready for the teenage years.  BAKE THEM PUPPIES FASTER, LUNA!  

     I was so busy making sure these dang pups weren't born during the birthday that I missed pictures of the spin.  Please hold though, and we'll be back in a jiffy with a cleaned up teenager!

     *The guests take this opportunity to play hacky sack*

      Okay, he's ready!  Our newest teen in the 'hood is Uri Centowski.  He has rolled family as his aspiration choice and he wants to graduation 3 kids from college. 

     Oh my, he's quite the looker.  I can see him having three beautiful babies.  I'll hold off on the really crude remarks until he's at least in uni and of proper age for my sim-self to flirt with. 

     OH!

     OH!  

     It's time!!  PUPPIES!

One puppy!

Two puppies!

THREE!  THREE PUPPIES!

     Shit.  Who is going to take the extra two puppies?  Well, I'll just push them onto Xavier's family.  Welcome Linden, Laurel, and Lotus!!  Yay!  PUPPIES!

     And that's not all!  Uri also got his own vehicle as a birthday gift.  Congrats!  I think he can haul lots of gardening stuff with this, right?

      And have you been introduced to Soupy Stephens?  He's a simself I made of a gamer friend from Everquest 2.  He's a bit shy so thus far he just does some walk-bys but he doesn't seem to socialize much.  As long as he's not kicking down trash cans out of view and causing the roach infestation, he can keep lurking in the shadows for now!

     It's Saturday and the teens are all over hanging out at Uri's house!  Including his cousins, Xavian and Xayden.  Of course, I had to get a picture of the 3 Centowski boys.

     There is, after 6 boys, a girl finally in the family too.  We can't forget Treva!  She's Xavier & Cassie's little girl.  She and Uri have been best buds so I can't wait for her teenager years so she can catch up!

      Though.. we are starting to accumulate a lot of teens lately.  

     Sunday is family day and I caught a picture of Uri with his grandmother Zayna.  She's a bit of a loner too, so pictures of her with family are pretty rare unless set up. 

     So after all the promotions, a birthday, puppies, and weekend socials, it's time to put these guys to bed for a week!  

Thanks for reading!
