Legacy Cove - Week 21 - Archer House

     It seems wild to me that we're reached the 21st week but also seeing how we have some of the fourth generation in college it's wild that it's only week 21.  The Sims is a weird game.  

     Well, without further ado I'll just jump right in with the introductions as this was a busy week for the Legacy household.  We have Gen 2 Zachary & his wife Antoinette, Gen 3 Zack & Toots, and only Zavoy is in the household to represent Gen 4 as Zakki is away at University!

     Last week, Zachariah's sister Zamaris was taken by Grim.  So as we begin our week with the household sleeping soundly, ka-ching, ka-ching, ka-ching!  Inheritance all around.  It's so bittersweet!

      Not that the money is NEEDED here, but it's a nice reminder that my beautiful Zamaris was much-loved in her family.  After everyone woke up, they all wanted the same thing.  

     Puppies.  Only puppies can heal the broken heart.  Or a kitten, but we're a dog neighborhood!   So we'll order up some Schnoodles and see what we are served in a few days.  

     Meanwhile... Zavoy was a bit more distanced from his great-aunt and has some other thoughts in his brain.  Hellooooo, Nikki Lee Garth!

      Teenage boys are so awkward with this stuff though, even when they are romancers....

     Fall in love, give a noogie.  NO!  No, Zavoy!  That's now how it works!  

     Meanwhile... Some other residents are having feelings about all the changes going on in the neighborhood and even the small ones within the household.  

      Apparently Amaris is on vacation so her dear husband Zane is patrolling the house!  No one is safe.  I REPEAT, NO ONE IS SAFE!  Not Zavoy, not Zack, no one!  

     Luckily for Zavoy, his birthday was approaching so he escaped off to university with everyone's blessing, including mine!

     We decorated for Christmas, and hoped for things to settle down.  

     But no such thing happened.  Settle down?  No.  Amp it up!  Even the ghost dogs got into the 'spirit'!!!!!!

     Zane is relentless!  I got brave and popped Zavoy back in for a visit.  We need to check out his new college look, and the household could use a distraction from the ghosts lurking everywhere.  

      Speaking of distraction....

      Puppies are sooooo cute!  Welcome  Aspen & Acapella!  Born to momma Anna and the father pup is Amos   ... But we're going to need more puppies.  A lot more puppies...  

      Antoinette Mellon Archer, how I will miss you.  She was my heiress from the old Legacyville neighborhood and she's been a steadfast sim.  Calm, well-behaved, beautiful, made beautiful children...  My heart hurts to loose these little pixels right here!  

      I fear Grim isn't done with us yet for the week, either.  I really didn't expect Zachariah and Antoinette to make it into this week but they quietly made it and got the Monday morning elixer.  Now if only I could get Zane the ghost to quit working for Grim...

      He's always there!

      Don't you cackle at me, you little snot!

      But at least Zachariah is here to celebrate his son's birthday!  As if this week isn't enough of an emotional rollercoaster with deaths, kids going to college, puppies, and ghosts.. we also have Generation 3 moving up into the elder stage.  This is too much!

      I'm pretty sure though that Toots will still think he's hot.  She's not being shy about it either.  I think she's actually excited.  

     Last look at my Generation 3 Heir before he spins into high water pants.

      We invited pretty much the whole neighborhood because we're all family here still.  It's a party!

      Wait a minute....

      WAIT A MINUTE!!!!

     YOU WERE NOT INVITED, SIR!

       And now the dogs are howling, I can't take this.  I need a Xanax!!!

      He's gone.  Zachariah Archer joins his wife Antoinette, his sister Zamaris, and his brothers-in-law Rob Panda and Trevor Centowski in the spirit islands.  Only Zayna is left of generation three.  

      I feel like I just need a minute here to come to terms with everything that's happened.  The week isn't even over.  Just a quick breather....

    
      Zamaris, I swear to Wright... This is NOT the time to make your appearance!!  I don't even want to know where you have been!

      Go away and take your little dog Annarosa the demon with you!!

     Don't believe for a second that she listened to me.  

     And wait, is Zayna and Zavoy heart-farting over each other???  Excuse me, we DO need a break here.  I need to go to SimPE very quickly.  

     Okay, back, and loading, and ....... AMARIS!!!!!!!!  

      THAT IS YOUR OWN DAUGHTER AND SHE'S THE LAST OF GENERATION THREE AND WHAT IS THIS GAME DOING TO ME.

      Deep breathes.  Let's try another birthday, shall we?

      As you can see, she's already practicing her elder slouch.

      Ready!  Set!  Tw..... what was that noise?

     

      Zane!!!!  Can you behave just ONE NIGHT?

      Toots cleaned up nicely in her elder years, at least.  

      Now... before Grim shows up or our ghostly aggressors return, we'll say our goodbyes.  

Run.  Just save yourselves.  GO!

Legacy Cove - Week Twenty - On Campus

     We've got two generation four kids off to university already!  Zakki and her cousin Walter are our first two to move into the Legacy Cove resident house.  Their first two years went by quickly without a lot to report back.  

     Mostly there was a lot of meet-and-greets trying to find suitable mates.  As Zakki's younger brother is the heir to the actual Legacy house, I'm torn on finding her a spouse and contributing to the population growth of the Cove.  Walter, as the only child of his household, is a little overwhelmed by all of his prospects.  

      Walter's a cutie and also a nice guy, so the girls are all over him.  We're even struggling to get one-on-one time with any of them but really for now I'm inviting a few over at a time and sitting back to see who he continually gravitates to.  

     Jen and Kate are very interested.  Kate's even pulled out the swimwear.  But that may be my fault really...

     This has been like the Bachelor show - Sim style.  One guy and a lot of women and the emotions are running wild.  I just have to hope Walter doesn't set his heart on Noelle here since he's such close friends with his cousin Zakki.  But I digress.  Since there's been so many enemies forming, I've been putting the girls in the hot tub to talk it out.  To keep Walter out of the way while they work out their problems, I invite any other available girl to the hot tub to fill up the spots. 

      I think Zakki and Noelle's problem may have started with another guy though...

     Mr Chase Bank.  He's a suave redhead and has turned a few heads through the neighborhood and is now on the uni campus.  


Stay tuned for more drama next time on The Bachelor Sims!

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!
